Relapses

- January 18, 2014

I have been MIA for a couple days. And for those couple days, things went really well. I stayed under my calorie goal, and I even worked out (WHOA). Until... I had a VERY bad past 24 hours. Very bad. I had a staff meeting at this Mexican restaurant across the River after work yesterday. I sit down, and think to myself, “I will have a peach daiquiri and no chips. Then get dinner at home.” So I get my drink and we are all talking and having a lovely time. Then I think “Ok, I will have some chips and just another daiquiri.” Then I was good for a bit….until the Karaoke and sitting at the bar happened. Then I had a shot. And a glass of wine. And then 2 rum and diets. Then the really bad part: a Wendy’s chicken sandwich combo meal. Yea. That happened. And HOLY FUCK did I pay for it in the middle of the night. I haven’t eaten any crap for a almost a whole week. I mean I was eating really nice quality food. Homemade, not much processed shit at all. All the sudde...

A Goal for Every Month of 2021: January

- January 02, 2021

Ohai! So it's been quite some time since I have updated here. A lot has changed in my life (new position at my school, I have two kids, I am half way through my 30's to turn 40.) This is me with my offspring, messy hair and all: I’ve been thinking that I have been SO busy that I am kind of just going from day to day. I haven't been living my life as thoughtfully or mindfully as I'd like. So last night, as I was staying up too late to give myself more me time, because as a mother of two late at night is my main quiet time (which leads me to getting less sleep-BUH-but thats ok), I randomly had this thought: I am going to set a New Years Resolution to achieve a goal each month this year. A goal that will make me feel happy, fulfilled, and more present. So, a couple things. 1. I love lists. Checking something off a to do list gives me a lot more pleasure than I'd like to openly admit. So creating a goal that I can work towards and check off sounds delightful. The ul...

Day 2

- January 13, 2014

I forgot to eat breakfast. This is a recent trend which is SO unlike me, because usually I want to eat constantly. This is also bad, because it is not healthy to skip a meal like that. I mean I still get my calories, but it needs to be spread out and balanced. The problem is I am not a morning person in any sense of the word. Travis wakes up and has sunshine beaming out of his ass, and I am a groggy, awkward, disheveled mess. I sleep as long as possible, meaning I am out of bed and out the door in 15 minutes flat (I am a night showerer.) I usually eat breakfast in the car, or I eat and sip a cup of coffee as I chill, waiting for my chick-lets to arrive at school. Recently, I am getting stuff together or talking to coworkers instead of eating and chilling. If I got to school 5 minutes earlier, I would have more time. But then I have to wake up 5 minutes earlier, and that sounds like death. Soooo I haven't gotten to that point yet. Anyways. Counting calories today has been good...
