Today’s plan
I’m not going to rehash yesterday’s food indulgences b/c it was Thanksgiving and what’s done is done. Plus, compared to previous years it wasn’t nearly as gluttonous. It’s no longer Thanksgiving, though, so I need a plan to get my butt back on track.
The #1 thing to accomplish on my to do list is done…I slept in. I have been having trouble sleeping lately and even this morning I woke up, on my own, at 4:00. I considered getting up and getting the day started and then reminded myself that I was getting a sore throat last night and that getting sick is not in the game plan. It probably took me 30 minutes to fall back asleep but I stayed in bed until 7:20. I love waking up AFTER the sun
Step #2 is also done, get in a workout. I did TJ Cardio Party and the AB Jam for a good hour workout. I can definitely tell that I’ll be feeling my abs tomorrow, but in a good way.
Then for today I need to stay perfect w/food. I know if I allow myself one inch of wiggle room I’ll be a goner so I’m going to be super strict. I seriously might be creating an eating disorder here but when I’m not strict w/myself all hell breaks loose.
I’ll check in w/all of you later, right now there’s a shower w/my name on it. Then my son and I are going to finish decorating the Christmas tree. I’m super lovey-dovey about him right now b/c when I was tucking him in last night he told me he was thankful that I was his mommy. Even though he’s only 5 he has outgrown the “mommy” thing, it actually made me cry. I’m sure you all think your kids are the best but I’m here to tell you that my son has you all beat
Progress toward workout goal: 113/250
Awwwwww, that was so sweet! What a wonderful Thanksgiving gift! *Sigh* I remember when my kids were 5 years old… it went by so fast, those years. Treasure today!!!
Wow, good job on getting Steps 1 & 2 under your belt! I need to get my butt moving on “Step 2″ myself! =D
Nice job on the sleep-in. The nose and sore throat thing does not sound too good. Sounds like the ‘thing’ I had and it lasted a week. Hope you fight it off before it gets bad. Does it seem like peole are getting read for Christmas sooner this year than usual? Maybe I am just notiing it more and maybe I am ready too. Maybe it’s an effect of the whole ‘bad economy’ thing. We’re all seeking some love and comfort from the holidays. I usually don’t decorate until about 3 weeks before Christmas, but I’m eager to get to it. I’ll see how DH feels about it.
