Weekly Check In June 1

This post is a bit late since I was traveling and dancing this weekend. However, the sheer quantity of dancing that I did was really good for my weight loss. I could have eaten healthier this weekend though I made pretty good decisions based on the type of food that was convenient and the caloric needs of dancing almost every waking moment. The trick now is going to be switching back to normal calorie intake and returning to normal exercise patterns. I'll be taking today off to rest and recover but tomorrow I will get right back on the bike (and the dance floor).

Weekly Check In May 23

I was correct in last week's guess that getting back to biking daily was going to be difficult. I did manage to bike a few times last week but I was tired enough and sore enough from dancing that I didn't bike as much as I would have liked. On the plus side, I was able to bike 6.25 miles in 24 minutes. That will cover the minimum distance to work and is a faster pace than I had been maintaining.

I was also dancing almost every night this week. Wednesday through Sunday were all dance nights with an added couple of hours in the afternoon on Saturday for a workshop. It wasn't enough to maintain my weight while I succumbed to the temptation of fresh baked cookies but it was still god exercise. This week I hope to work on being a disciplined eater with a focus on eating healthy foods and avoiding sugary snacks and potato products (yes, I'm talking to you, French Fries).
