Day 12!!!!!!- Challenge #2

Today is the last day of the 2nd Challenge.  I am so relieved that it is over, this week has been SO hard for me.  Everyday (except Monday and Tuesday), I have woken up and just dreaded the thought of going for a run.  The weather has been yucky, I have been feeling a little dumpy, and I was just overall DONE with trying.  I have the type of personality where it is all or nothing, and this week was SO nothing.  I did manage to stay within my points goal, but haven't really focused on anthing else. 

I kinda think two 12 day challenges back to back was just too much for me.  Plus, with all the other stress in my life and my school, I just shut down. 

However, all that being said, as of Monday, I was still at 158.8, and did not think I had a chance of meeting my weight goal.  I didn't meet my exercise goal, didn't meet my school goal, and pretty much didn't think I had a chance of my weight goal.  My weight stayed the same all week, and last night it was even up to 159.0  Sad.  Very sad.  This morning, however, when I weighed myself, I was at 155.2, which is only .2 off what my goal was!!!!  WOW.  I have no idea how I managed to pull that number, but I did.  And right now, I am enjoying a mini Snickers, a Starburst, and a Dt. coke.  When I'm done, boy, I'm done!!!!! 

So, for the weekend, my goal is to stay the same--NOT easy since I'll be going home and Dad is sure to cook some good food!!

I think that will be my goal for next week too.  I'm not going to try to lose, but I'm not going to try go too far off track, either.   I think I was overly ambitious on my plan this 12 days, and I'm going to tone that down.  Other than weight goals, I NEED to get my reflections done.  My personal goal is to do 2 more by Sunday, and then the last 3 by Friday.  It's pushing it, I know, since I only have 12 days left of the program, but I think I can do it.  The last challenge I have for myself is to finish week 6 of the Couch25K.  Notice I didn't say run everyday.  I'm still working on accepting the fact that it's going to be cold when I run, so if I run 3 times (well, 4, I still need to do the last day of week 5), that will be great for me. 

So, there ya go. My next challenge.  I have 7 days to do it.  Ready, Set, Go.  :)
