So much for my next two post goals. In all fairness, I did get quite a bit done at home this weekend. Spent a lot of QT with the dog outside, which was great. Also worked on my seedlings some more.
My biggest triumph is that I have survived my first week of eating clean. I think the key this time was that I did not overthink it. Before, every time I have tried to clean up my diet, I’ve over-planned, buying a week’s worth of food and then just not prepping or not eating the good stuff. I’ve been going to the market every day or two to pick up only a few things I need so that everything is fresh. Grapefruit is in season, so I’ve been having one or two of those per day. I have been drinking a ton of tea with all sorts of lovely antioxidants, and have been feeling… well… really great, physically. I allowed myself a little bit of cheat here and there… pizza Friday night was a treat, as was birthday cake on Sunday for my nephew Mason’s 1st. But otherwise, I’ve been really kicking some ass.
I’m back into the gym too, training twice a week, and doing cardio on the other days. Running is key for me to ditch this extra weight, so I’ve been trying to get out more now that the weather is a little nicer. Also, Blue has been really good about staying right next to me. She typically pulls and wanders, so I’ve been working on that discipline with her and she’s picking it up nicely.
Just wanted to throw up a little update in the spirit of keeping at it. Hopefully will be able to load some pics later!
