When we had our furnace replaced in the summer, we had to have an energy audit done in order to qualify for rebates. And then a follow up appointment. So I booked it for today, took the day off and decided to make it an extra long weekend so I was off Friday as well. Barry took the day off too.
I meant to get up and do my cardio Friday. I slept in instead. Had a fairly leisurely day. Nutrition wasn't great. Saturday was a bit of a write off. We did housework and nutrition wasn't bad until I got into the potato chips. We had a great brunch with some fabulous friends on Sunday. I was going to do cardio before the brunch but I hadn't done everything I needed to before the brunch so I was going to do it after. That didn't happen. I planned on getting up at 5 (I got up around 5:40) to do cardio before breakfast but I ddin't. However ... I finally got my workout in after everything digested and before my energy audit guy showed up. Even had a chance for a shower. Nutrition was going along great ... and then I moderately blew it. I'll be better tonight.
Tomorrow I get back into my routine of getting up at 4:30, workout, proper nutrition and staying focussed. Apparently I need routine ... I seem to blow it when I don't. *sigh* oh well ... tomorrow is another day. but I don't have any time to waste or I won't make my June 30th shopping day!
I came across a couple of great websites http://www.flylady.net/ (for organizational needs ... thanks Mo!) and http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ for tracking food, exercise and goal setting. I encourage you to check them out....
Until tomorrow :)
Don't despair my friend ~ I too seem to do much better with routine..Gosh I miss the multi-function, and easily adaptable self. But, we need to go easy on ourselves ... sometimes I think a day or two off the best laid plans is in order and makes us more motivated to do better (something like the 15 minute nap that re-generates --but make 16 or 17 minutes and its over...;0 )
ReplyDeleteI have June 30th in my book too (can't wait) .. so I better pick up my pace too!!!

I just recently started following your blog and I've gotta say, you're much better at your schedule than I am. Waking up at 4.30am every morning is absolute dedication! I hope you have a great week and look forward to keeping up with your blog. :o)
