Change comes in small steps and the results happen when you least expect them!

still getting back on that wagon

this week has been terrible.  feeling like a fat pig.  this is really my fault for not planning my meals better and managing my time.  it seems like the week flew past me and was filled with research meetings, tbi waiver meetings and just a general feeling of blah.  i definitely have to push through that mental hurdle.  how does one do that?  personally, i don't know.  but i have seen a pattern that helps:

-regular sleep
-keeping up with my vitamins
-planning meals on the weekend


today i bought a microwave which really, i have missed.  this way i can freeze meals this weekend and pop them in when i want something good.  as i said previously, having the car will be a great improvement.  today i went to walmart and parked faaaaarrr in the back and raced my friend inside (i won!)  if u have someone go with you, try parking further away and make a game out of it (always be safe when in parking lots)  pick a car of a certain color and walk/run/push/whatever fast to it.  and keep going til you have reached the store front.  also try to do short bursts of speed when you're going to and from classes or around your place of work (if possible).  keeping meal prep short is also very key.  when in doubt do salads. 

canoeing starts in two weeks and i want to get in some decent shape in order to not pass out on the first day ha!

  1. I stopped by your blog today. Planning is a big key to staying on track, but so is sleep. Our bodies crave carbs when we don't get enough sleep. Some days are better than others - don't give up.
