Gimme 5

I weighed in at 155 today and have 5 more lbs to go to reach my short term goal, which is also my pre pregnancy weight. I didn’t lose as much as I wanted over the last two weeks due to some drinking I don’t usually do anymore. There was the wedding party weekend with two days of company and drinking and hubby also made a pitcher of amazing margaritas for Cinco de Mayo and we’ve been sipping it for several days now. No excuses. I should have been better.

Training for the triathlon has been both exciting and frustrating. I am not in the shape I used to be in and it makes me feel weak that I can’t perform like I’d like. The Tri is 3 weeks away and in the current shape I am in, I’m going to die out there. Luckily I’ll have my sister during the race to keep me going. I’m hoping to find the strength to push us both as we are not currently physically ready for what’s in store. The hills on the race route are no joke.

Side note: I’ve joined Twitter. Just as soon as I get the hang of Facebook, there’s yet another social networking group to get on.
