New Beginnings

So this is our new site. GB worked on it when she had some time and I like the results, all X'massy.

Went for a R/W 3.7m in about 55min, included a hill 8%grade, information courtsey mapmyrun, where now the elevation map is multicolored and the grade of the incline is also given.

Didnt run/walk these last 2 days, just didnt plan the day right and nowadays am feeling a bit low. When I was in my twenties , I would think that the SAD syndrome, fibromyalgia, depression etc are all figments of a bored mind, that people, women esp. would not have half the problems if they took care of themselves which included eating right and exercising.
However I have been pretty good with both in the past few months and still could not escape the advent of this cold weather. Esp these past few days, the cold seems to bite instead of nip. And my first instinct is to cook dinner and then hide under the comforter. Did it for 2 days, went into bed at 7pm and sleep at 8! Today I managed to sit back after cooking to blog and read. Even tho I do the hour of activity , its no use if I start laying in bed for longer periods of time!

No weight loss to report this time, even tho there are 5 days still left, but cant feel it happening. Dont think will be able to do my workouts over the weekend, DH is on call. And everyday there is some little thing which takes me over the required 1700 cal. One little piece of chocolate and I go to 1900 cal and that means no loss at the end of 10 days. I will be happy if I dont gain this holiday season.
