Another day of imperfection. Or maybe Heidi would say, "perfect imperfection". The first problem was my schedule was way off. I barely slept Saturday night, and I really needed to catch up. I woke up the first time at 5am, and it just felt too early to eat breakfast and get started. I did some reading, playing on the PC, and started feeling sleepy at 7:30. I fell back asleep and didn't wake up until 1pm. I ate breakfast pretty quickly after that but there was no way to get all 5 meals in so I only had four.
I've made the decision to not exercise this week. I understand that exercise is the key to losing the weight. I just want to get the hang of cooking all this food. I would rather get the food right for one week and add exercise in. I will start the exercise portion of my journey next Monday.
