Weight Update for Apr 26

Wow, I felt like I hadn't weighed myself in awhile, but it turns out I totally weighed myself last week, too!  So here's what I got today:

weight: 209.0 lbs
fat percentage: 46.8%
hydration: 36.5%
muscle: 26.2%
bone: 10.7%
cal: 2339

I'm thinking I'm going to start doing a weekly weight update again.  I know I said I wasn't going to focus on my weight as much this year, but I feel like the weekly check-in used to help keep me on track in terms of thinking about my health and yearly goals.  

Thinking about my goals, I kind of fell off the band wagon.  I had three weeks in a row (Apr 1-7, 8-14, and 15-21) where I ate out two or three times a week.  I also haven't tried a new recipe since Apr 1-7th, and I've been exercising for less than 60 minutes a week since the middle of March (with the exception of Apr 1-7th).  I have still been walking a bit during that time, but walking doesn't count towards my weekly 60 minute total of exercise.

I also had an interesting thing happen the other day at work.  Someone brought in a giant tub of cheeseballs.  I took a bunch home and ate most of them as a snack yesterday.  While I love cheeseballs, they just weren't very satisfying anymore; I felt so much better when a few hours later I ate a home made taco full of black beans.

So I need to make a more conscious effort to get myself back on track.  I'm not sure why, but I've been having a really hard time getting up in the morning (and so not wanting to do any kind of workout).  I'll have to see if I can get myself up a bit better, or else come up with some sort of plan for later in the day (or on days when I work first thing in the morning).
