Not Working Out Right Now

I’m sure it’s fairly obvious by my lack of updates, but I’m not really doing anything towards my weight loss right now. But my mom “gently reminded” me that I hadn’t posted here for 2 weeks, so I thought I’d at least pop in to say “Nope, still not doing things right.”
I haven’t written it off entirely, but I haven’t gotten started again yet either. Knowing that there are a lot of holiday meals over the next month makes it hard to want to really work it out… I’ll get back there, but it’s not happening right now. And I hate having to come here and say that.

Have I mentioned walking?

When you go to Vegas, you will end up walking, walking, and walking. Then you’ll walk some more, and oh by the way, have I mentioned walking? My feet are screaming, but I’m thinking that if you actually leave the casinos at all, it has to be about impossible to gain weight in Vegas. I’ve probably done more walking in the last 3 days than I have in the past three months. I don’t know how much I’m going to be able to do when I get home though because let me tell you, my feet are KILLING me. And we still have a party tonight with not so good shoes!

How to NOT lose weight

Eat chips and salsa for breakfast.

Post-Holiday Pitfalls

Here we are, one day past Halloween, probably surrounded by temptation… in the form of fun-size Snickers, Reeses’ Pieces, and Butterfingers. All in all, I bought a TON of candy, both to hand out to trick-or-treaters and to give out at work. I sent the remainder of last night’s candy with my mother, who will be taking it to work. That still leaves a huge grocery bag full of candy at my desk. I’ve been foisting it off on unsuspecting coworkers all day, but it will likely last into next week. Unfortunately, the willpower didn’t last nearly that long, and I have to admit, I’ve been grazing this afternoon.

How about you? What are you doing to avoid temptation?? Or are you currently sneaking an empty Baby Ruth wrapper into the garbage can?
