Three Day Street

 September 22, 2023

In the middle of a three day stretch.  I wish I could find time to workout on days I work.  12 hours plus 2 hours of commuting doesn't allow for it.

Hit a plateau again.  I do need to increase fruits, veggies, and protein.  I read that restrictive diet can be a cause of osteoporosis.  Trying to improve my bone health.  Man I don't want to be a frail old lady.  

I do sleep better and feel better.  Hopefully less snoring as I lighten up.

Abs still hurt from my Barre class.  Especially when I sneeze. Thinking of getting back to running more.  No more marathons.  10 K is perfect.  Half will be if I want a challenge.

Planning to be able to fit into my wedding dress by my 35th anniversary in December. 

I do feel so much better eating healthier!

    Yeah!!! So do you count all the walking, working etc as exercise? My goodness, you work hard.
    I finally moved down. 1.4 lbs. But down. You are my mentor on weight loss. Not stress.🤔. I remember well at your age being the only female manager & working 12 to 14 hour days to prove my worth. Caused lots of health issues. Make yourself a priority!

Temptation

 September 20, 2023 Went to class yesterday in the med center.  Had a big breakast with egg beaters and peppers scrambled and toast.  At the class, someone brought in breeakfast tacos. They smelled so good.  Dang, I had already eaten breakfast. As much as I wanted them, I refrained.   Towards the evening, I could feel my cravings (wasn't hungry) just wanted to comfort myself with food.  I drank a ton of water and colored in my zen book while I watched TV.  Finally went to bed without caving.  Slept a full 8 hours!!!!!  Went to Barre class at the gym today.  I will be sore tomorrow.  To my suprise, I lost another 0.6 lbs.  So close to getting into the 140s.  Soon I will be able to wear some of my clothes.  Can't wait til they become comfortable. Trying intermittent fasting today with my Weight Watch.  I ate all my point from 8:30-2:30 so a 18hour fast til tomorrow morning.   Feeling empowered. ...

Stopped the urge

 Yesterday was a very frustrating day at work.  Long story short, started precepting, then ended up taking over the assignment because another preceptor came in and wanted her. Then spent two hours at the end of my shift trying to calm my baby which meant I couldn't get my charting done  Once home, I so wanted to eat my feelings but just had a light snack.  Small victory. May have only lost 0.1 lbs this morning but it was something and I didn't cave.  Felt good to be back in control.  Also clothes not so tight too
