So this morning, my alarm went off at 8am, and I could hear the rain on the roof. I was supposed to be getting up and going for my run, but was quite thankful for the rain and my bed was so comfy and that seemed like a perfectly good excuse to stay in bed. I drowsed then read my book, and the rain stopped. I got up and put on my running clothes, but then pottered around, in the back of my mind knowing that if I procrastinated long enough there wouldn't be enough time and I'd be of the hook. Then, not sure why - maybe thinking about how well I've done so far this week, and also thinking about Operation Europe I decided to just freaking do it. So the shoes went on, and out the door I went. And it was great! I ran for 9kms, and felt like I could go further. Then when I got home I did the rest of the SSS workout too. Felt exhausted after, but also really good, and so proud of myself for just going and getting it done!
All up, it's been a pretty darn good week. A few slip ups (out for lunch, takeaways last night, more wine than planned), but nothing major, and am back into my exercise and loving it! The scales are already showing a smaller number, and I'm already fitting into clothes better. I'm wearing a dress I haven't put on in ages tonight, and although I've been slimmer, I feel good. Just need to keep this up and I'll manage Operation Europe no problem!
We're off to R & J's house soon for a 1st birthday party. They decided to have a party for us adults, so I'm sure there will be loads of wine consumed. I'm not feeling too bad about it though because of my run, and also think that will help me be sensible tonight, as I won't be thinking ah well, start again tomorrow. Instead I will be thinking about my run and the effort it was, and not wanting to put myself backwards.
I'm looking forward to continuing with this now. Today it's not too hard! :)
