Monday, weigh in

I've been dreading stepping on the scale this week since Wednesday. I knew deep down that I went overboard with cravings and closed my eyes to discipline. I gained .8 lbs this week. I deserved what I gained and I can honestly say what I ate wasn't worth the set back. I guess after losing so much in the previous 3 weeks I felt invincible and thought I'd still lose with a few cheat meals.-Well that's what I had convinced myself anyway. I suppose it doesn't help that my boyfriend had 6 days off and we do enjoy going out to eat together. I need to gain some discipline back and make the right choices even if I am in a restaurant.-Trust me, there's almost always healthy choices available in restaurants, it's a matter of asking questions and sometimes substituting. So today, I start over. I don't need someone to motivate me anymore, my body speaks for itself. I CAN get there and I WILL get there. 

I'm headed to the gym in about 20 minutes and Monday is ab day for me usually. It would also be one of my running days but unfortunately my shin splints crept up last week so no running yet. I just placed an order on Amazon for compression socks. I had my old MSgt from the Marine Corps message me and tell me how compression socks changed his running life and he's shin splint free! I'll get back to you all on how they work for me-I should have them by Friday or Saturday.
These are what I'm trying. I read the reviews and I'm on board! I really need these to work because I really can't change the feeling I get after running. I've been running 3 miles 3 times a week for the past 2 weeks and I thought I was going slow enough for my body but hopefully the socks will help me out!
