Little changes

So I've been good the last week, but no movement on the scale. Yes, it went down a few lbs and then back up right away. 

It's time to make some changes. I know that my weight only changes when I make adjustments in the kitchen. It won't matter how often I ride the bike or go for walks so it's time to change the kitchen habits. 

Things I want to improve or change this week:

1) more water 

2) no snacking after dinner - I want to limit snacks in the day as well but current goal is after dinner

3) track my food - this will be the hardest but if I can get back into the routine, I can at least see what I'm eating and more importantly HOW MUCH I'm eating. Cause it's more than I think it is. 

Let's see if this can kick start something.... 

Where oh Where did the summer go?

 It's been a hot minute since I've updated and even though it's been extremely busy, it hasn't been overly interesting and note worthy! 

LOL - but here we are at the edge of another fall season. I like fall. I used to love fall but our falls have been dreary lately, with lots of rain and colder days. It is the start of football season which I love because it means family time. Yes, I like the game too, but I LOVE sundays with the family, hunkered down, yelling at the TV. It's my happy season for that reason. 

A little update on me. Nothing much new. I've been a little slacking on the exercise front, although we had been doing lots of bike rides, it's now the time to dust off the old Peloton and get some regular cycles in. I was doing min of 1 ride a week but I want to ramp that up to 4 a week with a few strength sessions as well. 

My weight is up. As expected. It's always up in September - which is another reason that I no longer love Fall! :) I'm hovering between 183 and 185. I thought it might just be water weight after our 2 week holiday but it's still there after a week so it's not water weight. Time to get rid of it though. 

Hoping to do more updates as I do think they keep me more accountable. Also catching up on youtube pages and other blogs that I regularly read for motivation. 

Here we goooo again.
