Well, I should probably find another challenge, as my friends and I finished this challenge on Easter, but continued to check in on this "official" one beyond.

I continue to deal with pain and numbness, much to my great disappointment. 11 years is a long time to deal with hitting a wall everytime I try to get active. So, this week I only worked out every other day.

When I get down, I find reasons to give myself rewards. I know I should avoid food rewards, but sweets are my Achilles heel. That apple fritter on Wednesday sure tasted great and I won't need or want another one for a LONG time. I had been craving something with carne asada and with the heat, I was just too tired to imagine cooking when I got home yesterday, so I stopped at my favorite little Mexican food place. I should have just got the two carne asada tacos and thrown out one of the corn tortillas like last time. Instead, I asked for a carne asada burrito, cut in half and wrapped separately. I started to eat my half for dinner last night and it was so salty and overwhelming carb-wise, I ended up picking out the meat and throwing the rest away. It led to me retaining water for my weigh in this morning, I have no doubt.

I was going to take the other half for lunch today, but I just don't want to, so I'm giving it to my husband. Win for me!

I pulled out all my size 10-12 clothes that have been under the house for 5+ years. I almost fit in about half of them. I gave away a few out-of-date items and put back the true size 10s for a later date.

I washed everything else last night and pulled almost all my size 14 and 16 clothes and put them in the garage. I haven't quite convinced myself to just give them away, but I'm almost there. I tried to sell the newest items on a local board, but only had one taker. I just hate to give away hundreds of dollars in clothes!

So, I should be more motivated with all the smaller clothes staring me in the face in my closet. I'm also going to try to do well this next three weeks before I leave for a 5-day visit to see family in California. Traveling poses lots of challenges, so I want to be doing well before then.

Wish me luck! Our heatwave will be over by tomorrow, so I'll be better able to tolerate walking outside. Wednesday was 88 and Thursday was 90, which is very hot for the NW. I am looking forward to 60-something!
