Well, I didn't lose weight this week. I maintained, which is okay. I did work out this morning. I walked with my mom. She is out of shape, so it's kind of funny. She will walk down the block, I will jog to the intersection and back every few minutes, so we can chat in between. That way we both get a workout.
I am taking the day off with my diet though. My partner wanted to make a dish in the cast iron skillet he inherited from his Grandma. The dish he was super excited to make is of course a deep dish meaty pizza. Oh well! It's worth it to take one night off to let him do something fun.
I have lobby day with Planned Parenthood on Monday at the state capital. This means getting dressed up, smoozing, rallying and other fun things. This kind of situation always reminds me that I want to be skinny. These women are great. But I know that most Americans hold a subconsciousness or conscious bias against people who are overweight. I could network more effectively if I were slimmer.
But I also can be confident that I speak well and am good at meeting new people. I will post about it when I get back. Volunteering and being politically active is so good for my mood. I know it helps improve my quality of life, which makes it easier to lose weight and feel balanced.
Yay!
