I realized something about me today. I think I already knew it but I finally "got it" You know how they say losing weight is 90% what you EAT and 10% what you DO? That may be true but if I don't DO something, I feel like it gives me a free pass not to EAT the right things. I know it should be the opposite- not burning calories would mean not to take in as many, but that is not what happened.
Today is my running day. It's cold. I'm tired. I didn't want to go. I was going to be the good girl and go anyway. I took the boys to play with their cousin today since I had to go to work later. So, I had planned to take them early enough that I could stop by the gym on the way home. Well, I forgot my phone. My legs don't go fast if I can't hear Taylor Swift. I really had every intention of coming home and getting my phone and heading right back to the gym. Until I walked in the door. I put on a load of laundry, checked facebook, and then just gave in. Soreness was setting in from yesterday's boot camp anyway. I need a day to recover, right? I took a nap. It was not nearly as awesome as a run would have been.
I had to grab some lunch before getting to work so I picked up a sandwich. Tomorrow starts my 24 day challenge, so I was getting my bread fix while I could. After doing the one massage I had on the books today, I had a hair appointment. That went into my snack time. I was REALLY hungry, which is a bad thing. I had to run into Target to look for something warm for tomorrow's boot camp and got some popcorn. And a Soda. Crap it all, what am I doing people????
I picked up the guys from my sister in laws and headed home. I knew I would be having a smoothie for supper because I had a thing at church tonight. Quinn made them spaghetti while I got ready. Of course I didn't give myself enough time to get to the good smoothie place across town. The closes thing to me?? Ellianos- home of the million calorie latte. What the heck, I didn't work out AND I had popcorn? Might as well enjoy one more coffee. I'm such a failure!!!
There was a very big silver lining when a lot of the ladies at church noticed I had lost weight. Oh yeah, back on track! Tomorrow is MY DAY!
