So, my husband took a new job and got flown to Canada two weeks in a row. Didn't come at the greatest of times since he flew home super late on my birthday and then had to fly out on Mother's Day....however, he came home with a Chromebook for me to use :) I guess it is one of the new perks of being the CTO's wife...I'll take it. lol
However, am I a nerd that my first thought was how excited I am to start blogging at night on Dietbet? I couldn't do it on my phone before...super excited to be writing right now except the font is so super small...or am I older and going blind? Holy cow small print lol. Anyway, does anyone have one of these; the shift key is in the wrong spot...very annoying, but I'm sure I'll get over it.
Anyway, back on track for healthy eating even though it's been hard and I struggle daily. I've looked at the sweets in my house each night hoping to not cave in and drop to the floor eating them. Yesterday was a high carb day and I did have cookies and other wonderful things; however, I'm trying to tell myself that it wasn't the end of the world and it was a cheat day. If I can avoid it, I'll skip my normal cheat day on Sunday, but we wil see...I'm trying not to look at life so black and white this time and 'punnish' myself. I'm on day four of insanity and did cardio recovery today. I'm quite proud that even when I ate like crap I kept up my exercise. This means I'm still in the race for month two of the transformer...so relieving. What kind of annoys me in some form however is that I was holding so much water wieght from binging for 2 weeks that when I weighed in for my kickstarter in 2 days I'm 3 lbs below goal already. Not that it isn't nice to win a game but that's not actual weight loss. I guess my focus will be on the Powell diet I joined. Figured being around carb cyclers will do me some justice to get these last 10 lbs off.
So, all in all a good day. I ate healthy, worked out, played with the kids and lived life. Tomorrow hopefully I don't crumble as I have made the sad decision to put my dog down due to progressive mental health issues with age. I had to put my first dog down in October, and now already my second...so very sad. Hopefully I handle it better than my first guy.
Tomorrow my goals will be insanity pure cardio (as that is on the list) and to continue learning my yoga trapeze that I got this week. Looking to use it for at least 10 to 15 minutes per day especially to help my back stretching. Also on a side note, I got a steam cleaner on Amazon that is being delivered tomorrow....and I love cleaning products. Hope it's as cool as I'm envisioning it to be :) Anyway, if anyone actually reads this, forgive my grammar and my typos as this font is about size 6 for some horrible reason.
