3 Weeks Down

3 weeks down! I am not happy to report that this weekend was a wash. Although we had copius amounts of Korean food (re: relatively healthy), we splurged on a few meals that we're not happy about. But such is life.

Back into the routine today after a wonderful 3 day weekend away with friends at a national park.

Exercise stats for week 3: I exercised 5 out of the seven days, 6 if you include long walks and a few smaller hikes.

Eating stats for week 3: Good during the week, but bombed on the weekend. We ate out at one of our favorite Italian restaurants (first time eating real pizza since starting the diet). We also drank some beer with friends this weekend, which we don't care too much about. Yesterday after checking out a new Costco-esque store in town we caved and ended up eating food court for dinner to see how it compared to the real Coscto. So over-all, not very good. Time to move forward, though.

The new goal for the next two weeks is to not eat out at all. This should be easy since we just went grocery shopping and stocked up on tons of fruits and veggies. With a 3 kilo bag of frozen chicken and some turkey burgers we are good to go!

The humidity is picking up here, and I'm not liking it one bit. I am sitting here writing this at school and practically dripping. Korea's summers are brutal, and with just a few weeks until the disgustingly hot and humid rainy season, we are already counting down the days until fall. Fortunately we will be leaving Korea for 2.5 weeks in August for Malaysia (again, another sweltering country), but at least we will be able to enjoy it beachside.

So, to wrap things up, week 3 wasn't that spectacular in terms of diet or exercise, but week 4 will be better!! :)
