The last three days-fell off the health wagon and into a pothole full of sugar and fat. I was doing so well. My excuses are that work got much too busy. I have my own business, and things got very busy this week, and I was working long 12 hour days. I have to work tomorrow (Saturday) too, but should only be 8 hours. My neck just got out of whack,pinched a nerve probably from working too much.
So being in pain, and not having enough energy to make healthy meals, I succumbed to fast easy and bad. And when I'm tired and feeling low, I definitely crave the worst things, and I"m weaker with my will-power.
Also, My husband's birthday was last week and he wanted a special cake. I did okay making it (though I have a huge weakness with frosting!!), but I did ..ooohkayish.
All and all, I'm just exhausted and it's hard to plan, prepare and be good. I need to think of a plan when things get busy. Ask for help. Ask my husband make healthy meals. (though he's tired from a long commute AND he's sick with the flu right now). So maybe we just go to the grocery store and just get things that can be made quickly or heated but are still healthy. Premake a big salad that will stay fresh for a few days in the fridge. I will get back to making healthy homemade meals when I have more time and my neck is better. I can't let this defeat me. I can still walk, neck pain shouldn't hinder my 1 mile a day challenge I am part of. I really just need to think ahead and know my limits and not expect to have the time or energy until the holidays sales and rush is over. So I will plan better from this point on.
