I've fallen off the wagon. In just about everything. Ok, not EVERYTHING. Here are the couple of things that are going ok...
I've been eating healthier, or trying to... I've pretty much abandoned my elimination diet, but have made a serious effort to eating healthy at least throughout the week. If I know that I am able to cheat on the weekends, it is a little easier.
I've started exercising. Andrea drug Brittney & me to boot camp last week. BIG mistake. I am STILL sore! At least now I can sit down on the toilet without crying. TMI? We are trying out Jazzercise this week. I have, also, been walking the Trail de Paris. That's at least better than sitting on the couch, right?
Budgeting... oh, budgeting... *sigh* is going pretty good. Actually, Clinton got a hold of it and proposed a much stricter budget. Mainly for the purpose of saving... for vacation and in general. It's really hard and I've been moaning and groaning about it for two weeks, but it's a really good idea and it'll work if I can stick to it.
Meal planning is going grrrrreat! It has to! If I'm going to make the grocery budget work, I HAVE to plan it all out. See how things tie together like that!
So #5-8 are on the right track. The rest? Not so much. I had actually thought about not writing another update like this one, but I think being honest with myself and putting it out there, will help me get motivated to keep trying.
To sum up how bad I've been doing...
I've been sleeping late again. My cleaning schedule has gone to hell (along with my daily schedule). I'm still hopelessly addicted to caffeinated beverages. Emma's schedule is off... see what happens when my daily schedule gets screwed up! I am embarrassed to say that Emma hasn't had learning time in weeks. My hair has been in a ponytail for days...
Please leave me some words of encouragement... I'm a little down and need some right now! Thanks!
You can do it! Just schedule your days like you plan meals. That's all the 'advice' I can think of since I don't have a little cutie to take care of. :)
