Okay, not a secret per se, but I'm not one to advertise my personal life (this is where you, the reader, go "wait.. Aren't you a blogger?"). Seriously though, I tend to keep my mouth shut and keyboard quiet when it comes to the love life. But yeah, I've been seeing someone. And it's been good, and continues to be good. For the sake of considering the privacy of others, I'll leave it at that.
I will, however, say that it's been distracting. Sometimes in a good way. On one hand, I've been absolutely negligent in my tracking and weighing in. Terribly, terribly negligent.. I logged onto my MyFitnessPal account for the first time in about a week this past Monday. My bi-weekly Just Dance dates have been sporadic and I'm pretty sure that's mostly my fault.
However when I weighed in on Monday, I was down 0.8 lbs from my last weigh-in. So that's good. The upside, weight-loss wise, has been less opportunities for boredom eating, especially as I don't tend to snack as much when there are people around. And more.. Um.. How to put this delicately? More activity.
*whistles nonchalantly*
Where were we? Right.
I've been told of a phenomenon that sometimes occurs with people in new relationships.. it's called Happy Fat™. Sometimes caused by an uptick of dinners out, an increase of niceties like wine.. (dear God, the wine..)

In case you haven't picked up on this. |
So I'm trying to make a point of tracking as I should and even if I end up saying "Screw it!" by the end of the day, I'll wake up and try again.
For me.
