Another kettlebell workout this morning. Last week's session left me moaning and groaning for days! The first one is usually the worst so I'm hoping that by Thursday I'll be ready for another round as twice a week would be ideal. I get my cardio at the gym on M,W,F, but I use high resistance to work the muscles too. All is well in the activity department.

I'm doing alright with diet. I did really well last week but then I ended up eating out Friday and Saturday night. Although I was still within my calorie ranges it didn't seem to help my cause. This week my goals to improve on the intake are no dining out (well, maybe subway), and watching the carbohydrates/calories a little more closely. I'm looking for a solid loss for next week's weigh in.

It has been a stressful beginning to the week. I haven't really had a day off in what seems like forever. I worked last night and ended up having to train a new girl. It was okay; she's kind of ... aloof, and I don't know how reliable she will be in the long run. Today my plan was to cram for an exam I have tonight, haven't had as much study time as I would have liked (my own fault). But now I've been called in to work for a few hours this afternoon. After which I will have to run to pick up my kiddos, then run to get to class. *Sigh*. No rest for the wicked. Tomorrow is supposed to be my day off, although I won't have the opportunity to catch up on sleep by any means. Fingers crossed that it will remain a day off and I can at least make it to the grocery store and gym.

The good news is that I'm feeling very confident after this past clinical weekend. I can't give many details but I was able to showcase my knowledge and put it into action. I feel like I really made a difference in improving someones situation. I passed meds and gave a couple breathing treatments. It was a good weekend for me. Nursing is extremely rewarding to me, and I'm still coasting off that high.

I hope everyone is off to a good start this week. Again, thank you for all the support and positive comments on my weigh in. You guys are the best!

Gotta run :)
