Hiking and Scale Break

Finally getting out to hike tomorrow! I've been really itching to lately, but our weekends have been very busy with other things.

Looking forward to getting out there and being active in the woods all day. It really has been too long. My body needs to stretch and move and not stop stretching and moving for hours!

I am doing what I can with the desk job, getting three 15 minute walks in every day, getting up to stretch every hour, drinking lots of water and eating good food. But it's just not like it used to be!

I decided not to weigh in for a few days and give myself a break. I was getting increasingly frustrated with seeing 124.something on the scale even though I was keeping my diet pretty tight, being active as much as I could, so I'm just going to give myself a mental break and check in again in a couple days.

I think the physical and mental escape of hiking is going to be just what I needed :)

I'll let you know how it went and share pictures after!

  1. Jeanette...you are actually quite thin. 124 is still a GREAT weight for you. Don't fight it! :)

  2. It's so hard to stay away from the scale, but I should. I checked today and have only lost 1 pound since Sunday. I'm a large girl and would have thought to see more of a drop based on my eating. I won't let it derail me though. Have a great hike, it sounds like it is just what you need.

  3. Safe travels. If you are not binge eating or drinking, I suspect the scale will land where it is. If you are preparing your body for having a family, food choices, sleep, stress, exercise will all help give your kid(s) and your grand kids the very best start. Onward!
