TGIF..or is it?
Avoided journaling today for the longest time...somehow wanted to have something good to report back, but ah well. My day today was nothing terribly special. Woke up, skipped workout, had my usual breakfast, and tried to (somewhat) stay focused until about 1 pm, at which point was supposed to have lunch with a colleague..which ended up being 4-hours long!! Do I see a pattern here? Lately there have been a lot of these long, time-waster conversations all around. So, yes, guilt is inevitable!! I can think of so many productive things I could have done in that time!! And I have so many, many, on my list!! THis is the part that stresses me out--so much work, so little time, and yet I manage to waste gobs of time so often!!!!
On my way home, I picked up my fav chinese food (did have the choice of coming home and eating soemthign healthy--but I did this anyway...a little too self-indulgent, I know!). Came home to enjoy my dinner and watch a movie. After which time, I have just relaxed and lazed around.
Ok, so that's how it's been...I really don't want to lose the rest of this weekend in such a lazy manner. I need to:
1) get my groceries, fruits and veggies, so I can start cooking again and eating better,
2) cook some extra foods this weekend and freeze them for other busy days,
3) do a good, active workout, 1 dvd, and a set of weights,
4) do atleast a couple of major house chores, and overall,
5) re-plan my goals and re-prioritize things..and set some timelines for my weight goals as well as work-related goals,
6) AND REALLY, REALLY dO ALL OF THE ABOVE!! I FEEL LIKE SUCH A FRAUD FOR MAKING ALL THESE LOFTY GOALS AND PLANS HERE AND THEN BLOWING THEM SO MANY TIMES!!! I WANNA HOLD MYSELF TO MY PROMISES, AND STICK TO THE PLAN. THIS IS MY PROMISE TO MY NEW FS CHALLENGE BUDDIES. Please remind me, and I don't mind a little kick-on-the-behind, tough-love yelling if you think I could use it!!! My own self-recriminations are certainly not working!!
Meals for the day:
Breakfast: go lean cereal and skim milk (3), coffee with cream (1)
lunch: 1 cup brown rice (4) and lentils (4)
snack: 1 protein bar (3)
Dinner: rice (6) and veggie kung pao chicken (15?)
some walnuts (2)
Total points: 38 points (I think)
Reminders about bad choices: 1) no working out, 2)very little water-intake, 3)bad dinner--quality and qnty, 4) wasted too much time chatting at work
