Good Morning
*yawn*
Since I’ve been home from vacation, I’ve hit the
ground running! My 20 year high school
reunion is this coming Friday and Saturday.
During our vacation, I had put out some fires and get the ball rolling
but we are making headway. Kenyon and I
met with the venue on Monday afternoon so we are feeling better about the
details. I ran a million errands on Monday
and still have name tags and the memory table to get put together. I already feel exhausted.
I have been staying up too late this week and boy am I
feeling it today. I had an opportunity
to go see the new movie TAG with free tickets tonight but I just don’t think I
can stay up late another night in a row.
I’m sad because I love movies and I was able to snag free tickets
through a theater promo/rewards card deal.
Getting my food back on track has also been
difficult. I am trying to detox from
sugar as I had way too much ice cream treats while on vacation. I felt really good yesterday after eating a
huge veggie chopped salad for lunch. I
even felt less bloated and my rings fit better.
I’ve not been able to hit up my Monday morning meeting
and I also won’t be able to get to a morning meeting for the next two
Mondays. I am not sure if I’ll try to go
to another meeting or use this opportunity as a mental break and re-focus later
in the month. From the middle June to
early September, I will have a lot of time to focus on my eating and
activity. I really like the exercise
routine I had started to develop a few weeks ago and I’m looking forward to
getting back into that. I struggle the
most with my eating when I am on dayshift and never know what the heck to plan
for dinners. I was talking with Kenyon
on vacation and I think the biggest hurdle is that we don’t eat the same foods
and being the good wife that I am, I feel like I need to have food ready for
both of us by the time he gets home. We
will have to sit down and talk about that more.
I feel a bit overwhelmed right now and the last thing
I want is to gain a ton of weight. I
have been afraid to get on the scale because I can feel the difference in my
body after eating way off plan for a
week and a half. I’m going to really try
hard to zone in on that feeling and what drives my reckless eating so I can
work to combat it.
There are many positives to focus on as well including
the donuts in the breakroom that didn’t make it into my mouth or the frozen
yogurt stop after dinner out with a friend that didn’t happen. I need to start writing them down so I can
shift my mental state. After spending a week
with people that talk about weight loss all the time, I need a break!
