Always come back on track

Well if I don't all the hard work will be undone. This morning was an eating disaster. Started out well, but soon found myself finishing off a loaf of home made bread (thankfully I left off the butter), but it still equated to 160g of bread (equivalent of about 6 normal slices I think). Then I felt so bad I even got into the cooking chocolate - I haven't eaten chocolate like that for more than 3 months. So that was bad.

Why did I do it? It is so silly, even more silly is to give in and do it again just because I've done it once. Well I won't. Not even tomorrow, starting right now. I will eat my alloted lunch (rice thins and vegemite), I will just have to live with the consequences of thismornings failings on the scales next week.

To get over it and move on - I will win this battle - for once in my life I will get to be a healthy weight, and it will be Before September this year, not the next or the next!

I lost 400 g this week so down to 76.8kg, but next week I don't expect to show a loss after this mornings effort. However if I don't get back on track - all is lost as far as weight loss is concerned. So I forgive myself, I will move on - the rest of my healthy life starts right now!

OK that said and done.

Exercise today - walked 5.2km in a slightly faster time than usual (55 minutes - so I am going faster than 5km/hr - that is good, when I first started a couple of months ago the same walk took 1 hr 10 min. Today is not a swim day, but yesterday I swam - 2km in 45 minutes - so I am swimming faster too.

500m freestyle,
2 x 400m medleys
500m alternate breastroke (easy), freestyle (flat out).
200m cool down (doggy paddle).

I taught Scripture today - the children are just gorgeous and so interested. Unlike us adults they haven't learnt to be so sceptical or complacent, they love to learn about creation and are happy to ask tough questions that involve very thoughtful answers. Today's lesson was the ressurection (can't spell).
Jesus is alive, God has power over death! as the headlines. Most of these children have heard this before, but they still ask relevant questions and want to know more.

Well it's off to work soon, so I'd better save and run.
