I feel like this week has gone on forever. I also feel like I've been on an emotional roller coaster this week. I don't really know why, but I was so down, I'd be willing to say depressed, for 2 days, and now I'm all good. I'm just frustrated with a lot of things, but I know that everything happens for a reason, and God has a plan for it all.
I'm so happy it's Friday, and normally it's WI day, buuuut I've been having a problem with being a daily weigher and it's taken a toll on me, so I had the hubs hide the scale on me. I'm thinking of going to WI every other Friday rather then every Friday. I don't know if this will hurt or hinder me, but it's worth a shot. I still don't think I've lost anything, and I know it's because I'm not really tracking perfectly, I ate garbage this week, but I'm aware of that and blame my monthly present from mother nature for that. I haven't been exercising as much as I should. I wish I had the time to spend hours at the gym, but I don't. I have time to do about a 30 minute something in the morning if I choose to get up, and maybe a 30 minute walk, but only on Mondays and Wednesdays, maybe Fridays and the weekend. I know all this, but I still feel like I can't change anything. I want to be thin, I want to be healthy, I want to eat cleaner, real foods, but I'm stuck in a rut.
I confess - on Wednesday I wanted Kraft mac & cheese so bad, so that's what we had for dinner: Kraft mac & cheese with hot dogs, but at least I made broccoli with it. For whatever reason, I didn't buy enough food for this week, some of it went bad, and I had virtually nothing to eat for lunch or dinner yesterday since I need to take it to school with me so what did I buy? Chicken fingers and fries. Now my school doesn't really have any fast healthy options, no lie on that, so I gave in to the fried goodness.
This weekend we're going up to PA to see the family - both of them, mine and hubs'. I'm going to track, I'm going to tell Chuck this and he's going to help remind me to track. I have my dinner planned out for tonight, we're going to Sheetz because my hubby is cheap and eats 2 hot dogs for 99 cents, I'm getting a turkey sub w/o cheese and some lettuce, pickles and mustard. Maybe I'll steal a few of hubs' fries...
I'm taking packets of oatmeal to eat for breakfast tomorrow and Sunday morning. Tomorrow evening I'm going to make a WW meal for my parents - Pasta with tomatoes, herb and feta, which is originally Cappellini with tomatoes, herbs and goat cheese, but I changed it a bit. We're also going to have some asparagus and I might poach some chicken in chicken broth to mix in because I know my dad won't be very happy if there's no meat in this meal. So that's planned. The only meals I won't know will be tomorrow's lunch and Sunday lunch and dinner. Normally I eat like a pig on the weekends, and don't track, so I'll keep myself accountable and I'll be able to stay OP.
Sunday we're going hiking, kayaking and canoeing with my in-laws. I'm super excited for the kayaking/canoeing part. I'm not a big hiker, but I'll go along just to have some socialization. Hopefully I'll get some hardcore APs in, and I'll make up for whatever junk I'll be eating for lunch and dinner, although I'll try to be good.
Whew! I feel good now that I have a plan. That's what I need to do. No matter where I go, I can easily have a 3 or 4 point healthy breakfast if I take my cereal or my oatmeal. I can do this, I can beat this plateau (I know it's not really a plateau, but I'm calling it that to make myself feel better).
