Let’s forget this week
Seriously. I have just been all over the place. Hubby brought home chocolate from his Seattle trip... EATEN. Snacks... partook. Pizza... yep, done that too. Mexican food last night at the new place in town... which turned out to be, somewhat unfortunately, VERY GOOD! I'm not sure it's a good thing to know there is a *good* affordable restaurant around, sigh... we'll have to be careful.
And logging... ah, haven't done any of that.
Weighing... well, I have done that some and it's been quite unpleasant. As you know I skipped the unpleasant Monday weigh-in, but I think, to stay accountable and get back on track, I'll have to post this Monday's truth. Don't expect it to be a happy truth.
Exercise... what exercise? I got caught up in the US Open golf thing last week while waiting on the phone repair, so I skipped water aerobics to watch the 19 hole playoff. Wednesday, I got up, downloaded email and got involved in a discussion and lost track of the time and missed again. Today, gym bag is loaded and I am going. Period.
Feet... well, I did something I'd been procrastinating on, cleaned up the bed half of the bedroom and installed the folding bookshelves we are going to use for bedside night stands. Mind you, I bought these back at CHRISTMAS TIME! I must say, it feels good to have them in place and all the cordage taken care of around hubby's stuff so all looks neat and tidy. I did find cat fluff stuck in the grooves of the fake wood paneling walls though. Can't believe I vacuumed the WALLS!
But... naturally, my feet were again toast after a day of housework. I suspect I've got myself to blame this time, not enough icing lately, and not good healthy eating. Healthy eating helps the fight against inflammation, bad eating does the opposite. I've had one PN shake this morning, will have another before exercise and I am back taking my fish oils.
What a slump. I can't believe I've just let things go like this. I feel stressed, there is much to be done around here, task that require being on my feet. Somehow, I've got to manage, even if it is a little bit at a time. But I have to manage the exercise, at least the water aerobics if not more. And I've got to get the eating back under control. Fast.
I'm with you on this week being a write off. I've got a nasty cold. Cookies were consumed. Exercise was neglected.
Andrew is getting fit's last blog post..One hundred pushup challenge is not easy
Everyone has a bad week from time to time, so, it's good you're moving on and getting things done.
I wish you well with your feet. Over the years, I've had a few small problems and even the smallest is like a thorn in your side.
Tomorrow is a new day, and the start of a new week. Here's hoping this one is better than the last.............:)
Hang in there Cynthia. Sometimes it is two steps forward, one step back. Focus on being good to yourself and doing good things for yourself.
There is probably nothing worse that your feet hurting!! Feet and teeth! You can't think of anything else! Feel better.
I can really relate to finally dealing with something you bought months ago. I am a terrible procrastinator. In 1983 I bought a book called "Do It Now". I never read it!!! lol lol
Marie's last blog post..Direction?
Hi all,
It all went south last week as well... and I had to do a trip out of town. 500 miles driving over the weekend. Tough on my arms, did better staying off my feet this trip.
Food... PowerBars, raisins, almonds, jerky and some sun chips. Lots of water and diet Coke. Spaghetti dinner and one outing to a Chinese Buffet. I was good at the spaghetti dinner though, one modest serving of everything.
I'm back to logging as of today so I can turn this gaining trend around.
