A No-Run Weekend?

I know, hard to believe, no running this weekend!  We got hit with a little weather here in the east yesterday, and this morning it was still icy and yucky.  I could have gotten out and gone to the gym at the Y, but had a lot on the agenda, especially for my job.  Yes, I actually worked a weekend!

I am going to get a bit of exercise tonight at a skating party.  That counts for something.  Then I'll get to the gym this week or get outside for a few runs, plus I start my strength training on Wednesday.  So I am definitely looking forward to the week.

I also did not go to my meeting/weigh-in yesterday morning.  Again, it was just so yucky out and a good excuse to just stay in my jammies for a bit longer.  I feel good though and feel like I've lost weight this week. I might try to get to a meeting during the week instead of waiting until next weekend.  And even though I did not go to meeting and weigh-in, I did not let myself slip into the "eat anything I want" Saturday.  I cooked a nice dinner, pork roast and sauerkraut.  Apparently though, sauerkraut doesn't agree with me anymore.  

Today I cooked a little boneless turkey on the rotisserie, sliced it down and just had a turkey sandwich and a banana before heading out to the rink.

Bought another papaya this week.  The one I had last week was really good.  And got a good deal on butternut squash, so I bought two.  Plan is to making a new recipe, butternut squash and leek soup, and maybe my butternut squash and black bean chili.  We'll see how the week goes.
