Week 10 Weigh In

Week 10 Weigh In: 214.8

Not The Most Inspiring Week
I'm now 2.8 pounds away from my 30 by Thirty goal of 212.

I'm still ahead in the competition at work but not by much.  I really want to hit 212 by Monday but I find my level of motivation is faltering.  I had made a really good habit of not eating back my exercise calories but last week I ate them ALL back almost every day. I ate some of them back Monday but held it together yesterday.

I Wrote A Whole Thing About All The Events I Have Going On This Week And How Hard It Will Be To Stay On Track With Calories And It Made Me Miserable So I Deleted All Of It

Let's talk about anything else.

I was so motivated the other day I walked in the wind/rain.  Apparently it was humorous to watch me fighting to keep my umbrella from flying away.

The wind even blew me right over sideways:

Yep, I'm going to pretend this in on purpose.  Sideways is SUCH a flattering angle!

I Decided To Go Hiking Around Three Caves Sunday

I've lived in Huntsville all my life and always made it a point to ride down random streets I've never been down because I'm a curious person.  Somehow I've never in my life laid eyes on Three Caves.  I woke up ungodly early and decided to remedy this.

A few things:

1. I don't know where my good tennis shoes are.  Also - "tennis shoes" looks really stupid when you write it out.  The word "sneakers" is terrible, as is the  term "athletic shoes". Whatever - tennis shoes it is.

2. I'm clumsy.  WTF was I thinking doing any kind of mountain activity alone.

So I drive over there, park the car, and head off into the woods.

Luckily if you just want to look at Three Caves (from above) it's not a bad little uphill walk on slightly rocky terrain.  It's honestly easy.

SPOILER ALERT
I made it...

The view from atop Three Caves
I didn't take this picture because I'm a dumbass and didn't take my phone.
Good thing I didn't die.

BUT...

I fell down.

3 times.

Just on the way up.

Mountain not to scale.

I can't emphasize enough how short and simple the walk just to look over top the cave is. I'm just that talented.

I decided after that I should probably go back to the car and stay away from mountains when I'm alone.


Since I'm Finishing This Up On Thursday
I should probably be honest about the fact that I ate fucking everything yesterday.  I had a plan, a plan for how not to suck at calories.

But we all know what they say about the best laid plans - they don't taste as good as meatballs, crackers/cream cheese/pepper jelly, banana pudding and chicken & dumplings, and 3 beers.


Since I'm Finishing This Up For Real on Friday
I sucked last night too - not as bad though.

Based on my weigh in this morning for my r/loseit challenge I gained 1.2lbs.


I'm off to fix that before Monday's super official weigh in.

Till then,
