Passed my first test
Actually, I passed a couple. Yesterday at school they had my favorite meal, pretzels with cheese. I know, it sounds awful but I absolutely love it. We were out of lettuce yesterday morning so I took egg salad to eat. Since I figured the egg salad wasn’t super-healthy so I would choose to have the pretzel. When I went to the cafeteria I decided to only have the pretzel/cheese and not grab a pack of oreos like I would have before. Then I grabbed the yougart and carrots that I brought to go with my egg salad and ate lunch. Yay me!
Test #2 was what happened when I got home. The plan was to workout but I always have trouble sticking to the plan when I go off-plan (pretzel). It was tempting to hang out w/my hubby before we picked up the kids but I threw on my workout clothes and did my Pilates and treadmill workout. Yay, me!
Test #3 came out of nowhere. When I picked up Kyle from the sitter’s he was sick. I’m guessing an ear infection or something like that. Because of his disease when he gets sick it’s misearable and very worrisome; basically I spend my time holding him and not sleeping because he’s stuffy and coughing all night. This eliminates the possibility to workout and sends me running for easily made foods. Luckily I had the egg salad leftover from lunch so I ate that for supper and had a grapefruit later. He fell asleep early so I went to bed around 8:30 in the event that he got up overnight. We were up from about 11-1:30 but since then he has been sleeping fairly well.
So now the challenge is what to do today. Weekends are always so tough for me but I have to conquer this. I am going to focus on eating healthy foods and leave it at that. My older son has an appt. this morning so my hubby is going to take him and I’m going to stay home with Kyle. When he takes a nap I will plan to workout but I realize that his schedule might be off today from being sick so if I don’t workout today I have to be flexible.
