With Chari here for 11 days and then a wedding cake due there were legitimate reasons I haven’t gotten much exercise (so far) this month.  However those “excuses” being over I have to get back on track.

It would be so easy to keep missing the workouts, I mean its not like I don’t have enough house work, yard work, garden work, pool maintenance and dog care to make more “legitimate” excuses.

However I am feeling better.   That makes it sound like I felt bad, that’s not it.  I am feeling prouder.  Wait that makes it sound like I was ashamed.  I am making progress, I am loosing weight.  I am still getting projects done.  Maybe not as quickly if I weren’t stopping in the middle to go for a run or ride the elliptical and do some weights but in my promise to take care of myself.  Its just what has to happen.

Last week I didn’t loose everything from the 11 days Chari was here.  But I also didn’t work out and baked a wedding cake all week (which includes required tasting of cake.)  I did loose most of it so I am thinking with just doing what is now considered “my usual” routine, I should drop the rest and then some pretty quickly.

It will be hard but I can still make the 10% in 10 weeks if I really try hard.  That will mean 2.5 pounds both this week and next.
