woke up today with a awesome sore throat... uck. You know the itchy, scratchy kind what keeps you coughing up phlegm. Ya that one. Started Saturday and has just gotten worst. Im lucky to have the opportunity to work from home. I usually do now on Tuesdays so I just asked the boss lady to let me switch my day. Needless to say, the dizzy, weak sick feeling my body has kept me in bed today so no gym. But, Im hoping to shake it off and maybe get a brisk walk in today somewhere, anywhere. I have some left over ground sirloin that I was gonna try and turn into a low carb vegetable beef soup. Ive done it before and its not half bad. I did not do much prep this Sunday bc DH grilled a metric ton of chicken and beef fajitas, chicken legs and sausage since he work 2/14,we did our Valentines date already. Friday we went out and Saturday we cooked out. And DH being the best hubby ever got me a salad spinner among other things. Ive always wanted one just never actually made an effort to get one. So since I got that, of course i went out and got a bunch of lettuce. So grilled protein and lettuce is on the menu for a few days hehe. Here's my list for the week:
1. Don't get cocky. I have a bad habit of this when I lose some weight or achieve a goal..I let it go to my head and then I eat crap.. a victory is not a reason to go crazy on the cookies.
2. Stick with the fiber, leafy green veggies and lots of water.. gotta keep on movin.. lol
3. 5 work outs this week.. personal goal of 25 k in steps on a single day (top #of steps is 22-23 k). Even if I dont get it, at least try...
4. Log everything .. probably the hardest thing to do these days.
5. Stay positive. Be grateful for what I have and look to the future when feeling doubtful.. see myself where I can be if I just work hard... then actually do it..
I hope everyone has a wonderful day and week.. Lets make it the best we can..
