I Don't Get It?
So I lost another six pounds. While this is great - I really don't know why. I would say that I've been eating within my points about 60% of the time. We ate out three times this week (although I was good and ordered a salad from McD's). I've had donuts and eatmore squares. And I still lost weight. I only went to the gym once. I just don't get it. But I'll take it, lol.

Back to What Works
I've rejoined weightwatchers online. This is what worked for me before I had Tysen, so I think it will work again. Wish me luck!
On the workout front - I injured my knee while we were camping (took a little spill down a little hill - damn hill, I think everyone fell at least once!). So my doc has done some x-rays but expects they'll have to do an MRI to figure out what's wrong. Until then - I'm off of it as much as possible. It's really frustrating to not even be able to go for a walk!!

My Period, The Gym and Oprah
These are things I've been doing lately; I got my period (which is weird because I'm on the pill, but anyway), I rejoined the gym and have gone a couple times (oohh my aching muscles) and I've become a faithful Oprah watcher. I have to admit - it's a good show. I used to make fun of those who watched all these talk shows - but when you're at home all day - they're a great diversion! I've also been tuning into Dr.Phil, though not as regularly. '
I didn't lose any weight last week, but it could be that I did and I'm just retaining because of my period. We'll see on Friday (we're going camping so I'm going to weigh in on Friday rather than Saturday).
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Excuses, Excuses
I keep meaning to go for a run. And then Tysen gets up and by the time I realize it - it's almost lunchtime!! Glenn is on holidays for the next couple of weeks - so he can look after Tysen. My biggest problem has been the weather - it's too damn hot out to run! I'm trying not to make excuses - I really want to exercise, the logistics just haven't happened yet. I have done some yoga, so I'm not completely lazy. I'm thinking of joining the gym again - they have childminding there, so it would be easy to just take Tysen with me. I would like to get a jog stroller and run with him, but you aren't supposed to run with babies until they are around 4-5 mos old so that they have better head and neck strength. Oh, well. We'll get this figured out eventually.
On the bright side - we have been eating quite healthy. It's really a shame that my milk dried up - I was liking burning those calories without trying!

We're Back!
After our two week jaunt around BC, we're back. When I have some time I will write a post giving the details of our trip. For now - just know that while it was fun, two weeks is a long time to be camping with a baby!
On the bright side - I lost another 5 lbs while we were gone!
