Up 1.4 lbs this week. I don't know if it is still fallout from Marshmallow Sunday or if it's a once a month bonus type thing (read between the lines, you're welcome, male readers) but I am taking it as a warning sign to get my butt back to the gym and start working out regularly. I think I have gotten too complacent on this no diet diet thing, although not counting calories is still thrilling and magical.
Oh, and I made
blueberry muffins from scratch this weekend in a rare burst of Marth Stewartiness.
They were pretty good, although I only used about half the sugar and didn't do the crumb topping thing because halfway through mixing the batter I realized I was low on sugar. I still liked them although I gave the leftovers to my sister and she never commented on them, probably a bad sign. Oh well. Any time I use a cooling rack I feel like I am mere weeks away from my own show on Food Network, so I was a happy camper.
So this week I am headed back to the gym and working out with
Jackie the Brutal Dictator. I'm not freaked out about this pause in progress but I also don't want to get off track. Fingers crossed, one day at a time, all that good stuff.
The muffins were good. Sorry I forgot to say so.
ReplyDeleteI too will be seeing Jackie this week. I am ready to get my arse whomped.
ReplyDeleteI come to you via Kate at And Then I Was A Mom. You are highly recommended and I now see why! I love your blog and wish I could try one of your delightful Martha Stewart inspired muffins. I am impressed that you lost 100 pounds and wish I could do the same. I gained so much weight with my 2nd pregnancy that my midwife gave me a hard time. 2 1/2 years later, I'm still working on it. Maybe I need to meet this Jackie lady. Can she help me?
ReplyDeleteKim, I'm psyched to see how you like her! She's going to make you do step ups. She's evil.
ReplyDeleteHello OMWCW! I love your blog name. Jackie could definitely help, although she's out of Chicago. She should branch out and travel the globe whipping people into shape. I'm going to suggest it to her.
