I've Seen Better Days

Today…well today was just about an ultimate failure. I ate munched on chips and salsa, cleaned my plate of some big cheesy enchiladas followed by a sopapilla. The only good thing about lunch was that I drank water. Ugh…I need to learn to not emotionally eat. I could have easily skipped the chips and sopapilla. I have done it before. I just got to keep working on things.
I was able to accomplish my 40 minute workout.  It was also a rough one today. I am tired and don’t feel well, a little depressed about my lack of control. However, I did get on the elliptical and did a full 40 minutes. I had a little help because I was watching Extreme Couponing.  I need to learn to buy over $1000 worth of groceries and only pay $6.
Alright, I am going to pop a Benadryl and hopefully start to feel better. I love that spring and sunshine are coming this way. I just can’t stand the wind and pollen mess that comes with it. Tomorrow is another day and another day to try harder.

  1. Yea! It will let me post. I haven’t tried to change my diet much... I should do better at watching what I eat... but one thing at a time here. I did yoga on Tuesday and it killed me but I still went running on Wed and then did yoga again yesterday. I’m starting to wonder if I will ever not be soar again!
    One tip that has helped me... is when we do our monthly fast I have been fasting for more self-control. I haven’t had to fast from food and h2o for almost 3 years since I was either prego or nursing...But doing a real fast from food and water and praying for that extra help in making better life style choices, making myself exercise has done wonders. I dont see the benefits much of the exercising yet... but I do feel the strength that came with fasting for more self control because I’m doing it (working out) even though its hard and I don’t want to. Wow sorry I guess that was mostly a thought that I just internalized and expressed clearly to myself for the first time. Oh well... good luck tomorrow. Are you letting your body rest on Sunday as far as the exercise goes?
