A pleasent surprise

So I weighed in this morning, it was the first time since probably about 1/2 way through the Colorado trip. The last week or so in Colorado wasn't very good for me - eating wise, lots of eating out and over doing it. Then we came to SLC for a few days which I thought went OK, but then we went to California. While there was a lot of walking around at Disneyland and I ran 3.3 miles twice, there was a LOT of eating out and over doing it on a daily basis. By the time we were on the road trip home my body was craving junk food and being over stuffed. So I was really scared to step on a scale because I didn't want to know the truth. So I worked out very hard this week and ate great all week. And today I very nervously stepped on the scale, I was about 3 pounds over what I was on my last weigh in when we were in Colorado. I thought that was pretty good considering all of the abuse I had just but my gastronomical systems through!

I have 2 weeks until my next triathlon, which means I have 1 week of weight loss and one week where I'll try to maintain and build up some good energy stores. I also have a triathlon the week after that on June 7th. The next couple of weeks are going to be fun and challenging, I would like to be about 8 pounds lighter, that would be my "race weight"....I don't know if I'll get there, but it's a good goal!
