Hi honeys! I've been gone for a couple of days, my weekend was just crazy, and today was back to school..
Saturday I did good, working out before work and all that, but I did overeat some later. Probably a little over 2000 cals, but in the grand scheme of things, that could have been a whole lot worse.. I have a fantastic time out though, so it's all good.
Sunday I had to work at 5 am (eww), and resisted all the giant muffins and other pastries that were around, I knew I wanted to not eat poorly 2 days in a row! Total for yesterday was 1400 cals, no working out though, I was beat after the long day.
Today: school was really good, I think most of my classes are going to be okay.. I hope! I didn't have time to work out, nor will I usually on Mondays. I have class until 4, then work at 6, so that's not gonna work. I will make sure to tomorrow though.. I ate about 1250 cals today. I i walk around campus quite a bit, and took the stairs a lot, even to the higher floors, so that was good. Ah, I'm just tired now, but I'll make sure to update you all soon...
Love you all!
 
Good evening my loves :)
Today: school again. I found out where I'll be placed in a preschool this semester 2 days a week (I'm going for K-3, but we have to do that too, which is fine by me, I love the little ones). It was good, my classes all seem like they'll be great, just a lot of work. I have to get used to that again! Today I've eaten 1200 cals, although I'm thinking I might have another small snack, so maybe 1400/1450 will be my total for the day. I also got on the treadmill for 30 minutes, which I was sooo happy about. It makes me think I can have a day or two off and I'll still be able to keep going with the workout plan and all that. I really didn't want to do it either, but as soon as I got on I was great! Worked tonight, and have classes tomorrow from 10 to 4. Anyway, I'm gonna go do some reading and get to bed... Good night everyone!
 
Sooo..
Yesterday - like 1150 cals, 35 mins on treadmill.
Today - 1550 cals, no workout

I started school this week and am exhausted :( I would love to write more but I must sleeeep!
 
Thank you honey :)
Today was good, spent a lot of time reading.. ate 1450 cals, got 30 mins in on the treadmill (ran for 20!).. That's about it. I'm having lunch with a friend tomorrow, and we have soooo much to talk about! Ah crazy times.. Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!
 
Lunch was great today :) Had half a hummus & veggie sandwich and some salad.. and an apple haha, and we had a fantastic time!

Today, in general, was kinda crazy.. it turned out okay, but I wasn't feeling well for a portion of it, mostly because of nerves. I ended up not working out, but.. that happens. I'll work out tomorrow and that'll be my 4th day for the week. I ate about 1350 cals today, so that was okay. I work allll day tomorrow, so I'll let you know how that goes!

:waving:
 
Ugh! I haven't worked out in like, 3 days.. Life is crazy! I'm getting back on the treadmill tomorrow though, I've been feeling like crap not doing it.. Today I ate about 1550 cals. Yesterday I did work all day, and I think I ended up eating about 1250 cals or so, I remember it was a little low, but I fell asleep really early!
Back to school tomorrow :)
 
This is my plan for the day:
Get something to eat and work on my paper that I have due tomorrow and do some reading.
Work out.
Play with my daughter!!!
Work for a few hours tonight :(

Really I'm just avoiding my work, which therefore postpones my entire life, but at least I'm acknowledging that. Also, I'm trying to think about what I want to eat. I actually get anxiety about it. Which I'm sure is not healthy either, but it's the way I am. I know my calories have been getting lower lately, especially this weekend because I didn't make time to work out, and I really don't want to get into that habit! Normalcy is my goal.. even though I'm not really sure what that is, I do know that I don't want to be sooo restrictive all the time, just healthy. I do have some goals for the year, but perhaps I should move into more specifics as far as the 'healthy' stuff goes.
Okay, okay, I'm going to start on the above list :p I'll let you all know how it goes later!
 
Thanks honey :)

Yeah, I mean obviously she's the most important thing in the world to me, I just have to find that balance with everything else, you know? For instance, today I still have a bit of work to do before bed, but I was so busy earlier trying to get other things done and getting ready for work, working.. I really didn't make time to work out. And I really, really wanted to. I don't have to work tomorrow, and Thursday I'll have time for sure, so between now and Sunday I can still get my 4 days for the week in.. I really just want to be able to balance things a little better. I guess sometimes things just don't go the way you might want them too, I just need to keep working at it.

On a side note, I ate about 1800 cals today. Which is admittedly a little higher than I've been aiming, but I feel like I've been eating so low lately it'll balance out. I was on track for about 1400, but my fam got an ice cream cake so I had a little bit of that. The slice wasn't big at all, but I'm sure it's loaded with cals, you know?

Okay, so plan for tomorrow:

Wake up, have some time with the little one, school from 10 to 4, come home, work out, more time with the little one, bed. I don't really have anything due Thursday, so maybe I'll just try to get a few things done for Friday so I don't stress so much Thurs. night, haha. See, planning ahead, that's good right??

Lovies for everyone!
 
Soooo.. I'm still at 151. I've been eating okay, but haven't been able to work out, so I get that weight will come off slower, but that's crappy too.. Sometimes I feel like I just can't fit everything in.
So tonight after my long day, I got on the treadmill at like 9:30. Did 30 mins, ran for 20 :) I'm pleased with that, and I'm still on track to be able to work out 4 days this week, which is good. Also, I ate about 1500 cals today, which is fine. Ummm.. I did manage to get everything school-wise done for today, and I'm off to do a little more work before bed..
Good night everyone!
 
So I've discovered that if need be, I really can work out at like, 9:30 or 10 at night and still manage to get to bed at a somewhat managable hour.. And be able to get up in the morning. I just couldn't take not having time to work out again, so yesterday I did after I got my little one to bed (and fought with an ex), and tonight I did after I got home from work. I guess it's good to know that if I have to fit it in then, I can.
Tonight I did 30 mins on the treadmill, 22 running (yay!).. Ate 1350 cals.

I hope this weekend goes well.. I feel like I've had too much to deal with lately, I really just need something good, you know?

Good night everyone..
 
hey keep up the good work1 don't worry too much about the pounds. watch the inches. sometimes they rush off before the pounds.

have a good week!

;-)

Thanks :) Yeah, I've noticed changes in the way things fit lately, rather than pounds.. It's nice to see both I guess though, haha. Today, no work out.. I actually fell asleep really early with the little one and was busy before, so I'll work out both days this weekend! I ate about 1750 cals (went out to lunch which jacked that up a bit, but it's not bad at all).
Hope everyone is doing well!
 
Ah, so yesterday was productive! The little one went to spend the night with her daddy, so after she left I went to the health food place I like, came home, made some food, and really read/studied/took notes for hours and hours. I took a break later to run (30 minutes on the treadmill, 20 running), but really that's about it. Then I read some more, lol. I just feel like I need to get ahead on it all, cuz when I start having papers due, it just won't get done. You know? Oh, and I ate about 1350 cals yesterday.

So the plans for today: I think I'm going to church, reading some more, working out.. probably another 30 on the treadmill, and that'll equal my four days for the week (whew! I really didn't know if I was going to do it this week, so I'll be happy once it's done!).. I do have to run to Target for a few random things, but other than that I'll just be home. I have to find out what time the little one is coming home, but I would imagine it won't be until the afternoon at some point..

Hope you all have had a great weekend!
 
Yessss, got all my plans done for today :)

Still may do a bit of reading, but I got the bulk of everything done, and got on the treadmill.. So that's good. I ended up eating close to 1900 cals, which is a touch higher than I would have liked, but that's okay, it was a family foody day haha.

Hope everyone has a fantastic week!
 
Holaaaa,
So yesterday was not so good.. I ate about 2100 or so cals, and didn't work out. Oops. And I hate to be like, well I was stressed and my romantic life is perhaps the hugest mess.. I hate to have excuses, but I let things get to me, and I do unhealthy things.

Today, even though my morning started out with somewhat infuriating news, I did very well. I am determined that I'm better than all of this crap around me, you know? So I ate 1500 cals, and I got on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Go me!

I dunno guys.. I really feel like the last six months have been crazy. Yes, in general, I attract drama. But the highs and lows these last months have been overwhelming. I guess I'm thankful that I've been able to keep focus on things that are important to me, and been able to try to focus on getting healthier..

Just reflecting I guess... Good night everyone!
