Return and Report

I liked having my meals planned out. It was a good thing. Even though I didn't eat exactly what I had planned, I still ate the right foods. I like planning it out because then there is no last-minute decisions to make. I did not drink all of my water yesterday...Uh oh... I did have about 5 minutes of "me time". I had a chance to lay on my bed for a few minutes. It was short lived, but at least I had some time. I have been so tired. The stress that I have been feeling has really been catching up to me. I hope that it doesn't have a negative impact on me and my numbers! I am doing my very best to keep a positive attitude and to hang in there. Today was a little hard for me. I was not focused and I didn't eat nearly enough. I didn't drink enough water either. I am feeling it now because I have a headache. My body was really liking getting enough water, and it hasn't had it today...Hmm...I will have to really work on that. I like drinking a lot of water, but I was gone a lot today and so busy that I just didn't think about eating or drinking. I didn't even realize I was hungry until it was about 7:30 tonight. Kind of strange I know, but that's the kind of day I had. I do need to be consistent though. I am not getting down on myself because, so far, I have been doing a great job with sticking with it and doing what I'm supposed to. I'm not going to let one day ruin it for me. I have no idea what my weight loss will be this week, but I am still going to try to have a decent loss. I am going to be weighing in on Monday rather than Tuesday, so that will cut me a day short. I am okay with that, because it all works out in the long run anyway. I am so tired. I feel like I need to really have some time just for me. I am really looking forward to going on this retreat with my sisters and precious mom. I love getting together with my girls. I will miss you, Anna! I wish you could be there...maybe next time. Even though I am tired and stressed I am still happy and I do have a positive attitude. I will keep it up. Things always have a way of working out. Well, I fly out tomorrow, so I'll probably blog tomorrow night. Whoever reads this, good luck this weekend!!! And thanks for reading! :)

  1. I sooo wish I was going to be there with you guys. I know it will be a lot of fun. I think it is going to be some good time for you Janie to have some down time. I love you so much. Hang in there. You are right about being consistant. "It isn't about being perfect 100% of the time, it is about being consistant 70 to 80% of the time." That was a quote in my paper work from Cheryl when I was working with her. I really believe that is true. I think it is just making sure that for the most part you are on track, and not forgetting when you haven't been on track so it doesn't happen too much. You can do this.
