Baby, It’s Cold Outside

But I still walked the entire way to work. While I’m struggling with fitting in workouts at this time of year, I’m trying to walk as much as possible. I really liked Caitlin’s post this morning about not being driven by guilt.

For me, feeling “guilty” about eating something unhealthy often just leads to more unhealthy choices. And while I definitely want to maintain my weight loss, I know that a few weeks of not thinking as much about what I’m eating won’t erase all my hard work and is a nice reprieve for my mind.

I haven’t been running as much because of the cold (excuses, excuses), and I know that’s a part of the reason I feel “off track.” I have a 15K this weekend that I haven’t really trained for in the past few weeks. I’m still going to run it, but I really need to get some longer races on the calendar to prepare for and motivate me. I’m waiting to hear about the NYC Half-Marathon lottery tomorrow, and I have another race on my mind…I’ll make a decision soon and announce it here!

And a spinach feta wrap.

I’ll have the K-Swiss giveaway voting up tomorrow!

For now, I’m braving the cold for a quick lunchtime visit to the gym.

Why don’t you go check out the new Live Well tab on the Woman’s Day and Eggland’s Best Facebook pages?

This is a project I’ve been working on for a few months, and I’m glad it launched! Tina from Carrots ‘n’ Cake will be moderating  the tab. I love when I can mix my work and personal life! (I first met Tina when a group of bloggers went to watch Caitlin of Healthy Tipping Point/Operation Beautiful on the Today Show.) She’s as awesome in person as she is on her blog, so I’m glad to be working with her!
