Comment on the run

Moving is hard work. So is doing a massive top-to-bottom-clean-up of the house.

But at least I don't feel bad that I haven't gone to the gym. I've still managed to lose a little bit of weight!

Back to the boxes....

Back from the land of no portion control

I'm back from my week long stay in Colorado and I am happy to report that I didn't loose my battle of the weight (by much) while at my mother's house. She has a hard time not over-preparing for meals, so I was thankful there were 6 other people in the house to help eat 'my' share of the food.

I did not get any time to go to the hotel gym as I had imagined. It was a foolish pipedream and I should have recognized the fact that my sister, her two girls, my parents and my brother would take up much more of my time and energy than I thought. I mean that in a good way.

We did get to walk around all over creation, and I did a fair share of walking up and down the flights of stairs in my parents' house. It doesn't sound like a lot, but I generally don't need to climb stairs being that I live on a single floored house (at least for now - details on our move to a house-to-be-determined can be found on my other blog.)

I don't know how often I'll be able to go to the gym on base int he next couple of weeks being that I have to now concentrate my thoughts and energy to packing up and moving (for those who want to keep count, this will be the 3rd move in the last year and a half), but luckily packing will be exercise enough for me.
