Snow Days!!!

So my posts are a little off this week, as my "weeks" start on Fridays.  Last Thursday night a blizzard was expected to come our way so they cancelled school Thursday night for Friday.  With over two feet of snow expected I spent thursday night packing and loading eh car with ski gear.  Friday Morning we hit the road around 6:30 and took our first run on Mount Snow at 9:30.  We skiied til 4pm when the lifts close, and crashed in a hotel room where we waited out the storm by ordering chinese woke up Saturday to a fresh 12" of snow and back to the slopes we went for a full day of fun. 

We drove home last night after skiing all day.  Here at home they got almost 30 INCHES!!!!  Today Mr. Match and I went snow shoeing for about 2 hours......man am i tired!  A lot of roads in town are not plowed yet, so they have cancelled school for tomorrow as well.....

time to get ready to spend the day baking!!!!

up-down up-down up-down

No I am not a drill Sargent at boot camp telling you when to go up and down for a pushup.  That is my weight.  I weigh myself daily, every morning when I first wake up.  I feel like it holds me accountable for staying on track during the week.

Well its been happening all week  loose 1.4 pounds one day  gain 1.6 the next day  loose 1.2 the next day  gain 1.2 the next day......UGH   why is my body doing this to me?!  I have been eating fairly well  Ive been staying on top of my weekly goals INCLUDING drinking more water.  

I NEED TO LOOSE AT LEAST 1.0 pound by Friday  I need to see SUCCESS and keep it off!!!!

1/25/13 to 1/31/13 Review

So I have to say this week was pretty successful.  Am I over the moon satisfied with its results.....No, but am I happy to be making small amount of progress....Yes.

This week I have been suffering with shin splints.  I am so bummed to have to put my running on hold, but realize after the injury I went through last year that left me with a swollen ankle (a cankle) and no running for 3 months, that it is best to take a couple of weeks now and hope for a speedy recovery.  I have done some research this week on ways to help cure these shin splints and many people have said compression socks.  I think I will invest in a pair.....stay tuned.  Oh and I have a new pair of kicks that I've been wearing after work to start breaking in, maybe my shoes were to worn out?

So since I couldn't run this week I have switched to biking.  I did one 5km run last Friday  and did 3 hours on my bike - Holy Butt soreness!

Goals for last week
Running - 5km - COMPLETE
Biking - 3hrs - COMPLETE
100 abs daily - COMPLETE
10 pushups daily - COMPLETE
10 tricep dips daily - COMPLETE
Vitamins daily - COMPLETE
Track ALL food on WW - COMPLETE

money earned for goals this week - $25

As for my weight I am down 1.2 pounds to 159.4  I am really really really hoping that I can have a good weekend this weekend and get below 159 next week.  I would like to earn 50$ towards my iPad.

Total money earned $75

bored

Since I can't run for a week a two (stupid shin splints!)  I have set up my bike on the indoor trainer.  Yesterday I rode it for an hour, OMG so boring!!!!!  even with the TV on, I couldn't wait to get off.

What am I going to do?!?  I have two more hours to complete on my bike this week, and I'm dreading every minute of it!!!
