I have a feeling this is not going to be very pretty, folks.

I was doing alright… and then Saturday came. My husband (who hasn’t been home in a month!) got to come home from work for a few days and he does the cooking (woot!) when he is home.

Saturday night:  homemade pizza. Sure, he makes me my own special portion of pizza loaded with onions, portabella mushrooms, and green peppers, but there is still the crust and the cheese!

Sunday:  Playoff day. Not good. Homemade subs. Popcorn (with butter). Candy. You get the picture.

And then, to top it all off, I had a Drumstick last night. Not chicken, the awful(ly yummy) ice cream variety.

On the plus side… he and I played racquetball at the gym yesterday. Wonderful exercise. I came away with a contact-injury again.

I signed up for FitBloggin… now I just need to figure out a way to get to Baltimore!!

How was your week? Do Confess.

Oh holy hell. I am up 5 fricking pounds this week. FIVE em’effing pounds.

I logged just a little over 4 miles in the past week, but over FIVE hours of fitness activities (racquetball & EAS) during the time, too!

Want to see my racquetball-induced injuries? Here ya go! My hubby took me down with a ball to the back and my feet? OUCH.

So, yeah… not really a good week, I guess. I always gain a lot of weight when I work out a lot, but hell, this is getting old. I am going to need to really, REALLY watch my calories.

Sooooo… where to begin?

*I exercised a lot last week, but am still behind on EAS More Workouts!

*Racquetball kicked my ass. What a workout! My husband and I were sore in places we didn’t know you COULD be sore! Like behind your knees?? Weird!

*My husband cooked a delicious faux-Thanksgiving meal yesterday and it was so delicious! (He was working over Thanksgiving!) These muffins? HUGE hit at our house, especially with the kids!

*I’m still grumpy and bitchy.

*I am OFFICIALLY registered for Team in Training and my web page is UP!

Obviously, I really sucked this past week. I was in a HORRIBLE funk and did not even log any miles. Crap!! I did More Workouts last night and played an hour of racquetball with my husband this morning. Holy crap is that an awesome workout. I was totally breathing harder than I do when I push myself at cardio! WOW. And my right arm is totally shaky and sore. Hah! I also did 2.75 miles in a half hour after racquetball this morning. Check out my progress at The Daily Mile.

I am committing to raise money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society again and am pumped about it! Our chosen location is San Diego in June and I hope to see some of your pretty faces there with me!

On to the weight loss… I am up 0.4 pounds. I am okay with that. I am not doing so hot this challenge, but have been exercising way more than I have since I first had symptoms of my back issue last May! That’s a huge improvement!
