Hello my wonderful fatsecret family!
I am now twenty-nine years old, and it came with a few extra pounds though I shall not officially weigh in before the weekend. I deserve time to correct it! My fault, of course.
I have been stuck somewhere between 'eat mindfully' and 'treat yo self'. Bipolar, if you will. For example, lets take it back to Friday. Husband suggests outback steakhouse, I agree. Usually I do fantastic at steakhouses. I stick to a nine ounce sirloin and half a baked potato, but also indulge in some bloomin onion and coconut shrimp. Saturday at the clinical pizza party I stuck with one piece of pepperoni pizza, then for dinner settle for some fried chicken strips. Mmm. (Buffet never happened, cancelled due to illness) Sunday = Margaritas = killer hangover. Monday was saltines, nursing that hangover and reeses and spaghetti for dinner... no rationale for that one. Tuesday (My actual birthday) I took my daughter out to lunch. We did a two for twenty at applebees and split a dessert. Maybe I haven't done as poorly as I feel I have, but all these carbs have me straight feeling like s.h.i.t.
Literally, I feel depressed. Maybe a correlation with the gluttonous carb intake and emotional state. Working on a detox today. Started with the gym. I got four miles in forty minutes on the elliptical, resistance level eight. A new personal best for me, but I did carb load the day before ;).
Nothing to special to report for birthday, other than that it's not over yet. Yesterday my daughter and I went to the eye doctor. She has been complaining about not being able to see well, low and behold she could benefit from some glasses. I was going to order myself some new frames, but bought her some instead. Mine are in good shape, I can wait. Husband got me some flowers and chocolates. Mom is doing dinner for me Sunday night.
I had my preceptor meeting last night in class. I'm going to a nursing home near me, everyone says the nurse I'll be working with is wonderful so I'm happy to hear that. I'll either be doing four twelve hour shifts or six eight hour shifts, find out more next week. We also took a HESI exam. These are exams that let us know how prepared we are for the nclex. An acceptable score is 825, they want everyone to achieve a 900, I scored 1215. Ta-Da.
So that's whats new in my world. Hope all is well in yours.
