Day 5: Battle of Wills

Well, the first week is complete. Pretty rough start, but at least I started. Let's see, this has been a day of total battle of wills. Some battles I won, some battles I lost, but I'll document that in the Do/Do Not list. I am learning to try and re-think this battle a little bit. Looking at this as the ultimate goal, everything is way out of my reach, so I need to break it down a little bit. First of all, my first goal is to hit 185. I know I weighed that at least in October, because that's when I got my license and I know I had seen that on the scale at least relatively recently or I wouldn't have put it on there. I also foud in one of my older "documentaries" that in November of 2010, I weighed 179 lbs. This is not really anything to be proud of, because I've still put on 30 lbs since April, but it does give me a little hope. My first weigh-in/taping will be tomorrow morning. I'm not really hoping for a lot here because there were a lot of ways I didn't follow what I need to. But I learned some things and hopefully that will help me next week.

Workout:
- Swam 30 laps in ~35 minutes (I really have no idea when I got in the pool)
- 1 plank; 15 sec plank

Do:
- Ate proper lunch
- Didn't eat snacks
- Went swimming...and this was a struggle, because I REALLY wanted to go home
- Ate a proper dinner

Do Not:
- Had hot chocolate and Lucky Charms for breakfast
- Had Snickers bar at lunch
- Debated all day whether or not to go running, but I didn't

We'll see what happens tomorrow. Weekends (especially Saturdays) have always been my downfall
