I did it!!!
Last night I took the night off from the gym. I was going to do some hiit at home but it was so hot. I ended up just relaxing, trying to stay cool. Headed in to work this morning. Saw the traffic was at a stop on the freeway, turned around and went home. Tried again at 9, traffic still crawling but I knew if I didn’t get off that couch, I would never make it into work. Some idiot threw out their cigarette on the freeway, it landed in a truck behind him filled with cardboard. Yeah, you get the picture. Driver pulled over because his load caught on fire, when he pulled over it caught the dead grass on the hillside on fire. So with 2 lanes shut down and every firefighter at the scene = disaster! Anyways, it took me over an hour to get to work, when normally it would take me 20 minutes. Not to mention it was already 90 degrees at 10 in the morning.
So, what I did was weighed myself this morning. I finally hit 129!!! I have been stuck at 130 for so long now, I was getting frustrated. I think my problem was that I was trying too hard to loose that weight. The last couple of weeks I’ve taken quite a few rest days and that seem to have done the trick! Wooo Hooo! As a treat, I’m having brown rice cali rolls for lunch. Yum!!

YAY for the 120’s zone - fantastic job, chickie!! And that’s super scary about the traffic situation - it amazes me that people still smoke, let alone litter. Grr! >:( I’m glad no one was hurt, though!

Ooooh, yes, rolls always make a good victory treat! The rest time is so important, even though it sucks when at times you feel you’re not doing enough.

BOO to traffic, it’s the worst part about living in Washington, DC so I feel you! I hope you had an extra roll for me, I’d kill for one! LOL Oh, BTW - I can’t do both comps, they’re on the same day!
