Progress as of today: -3 lbs lost so far, only 1 lbs to go!
How did you like the new therapist?
The author/book talk sounds really interesting!
Because I wasted so much time and slept thru the whole morning I am contemplating skipping the library event to cook at home, exercise and home and read my study guide tonight :/
I actually have started showering at night once a week or so (the rest of the days showering in the morning!), so i can wake up and go! Doesn't always work for me, but, I am enjoying this approach at least right now during winter when i'm not sweating much and want some fast mornings! :) This night routine leaves my face smoother and less dry in the winter and my hairline less flakey. I will think about this for the rest of the Winter...

Saturday plans:

come home and go on bike after a snack and do video chat with Paris friend
after phone with Paris friend, make turkey meatballs / do laundry saturday night
Sunday plans:
possibly upper body WEIGHTS in morning before 6hr def driving course (wanted to drive somewhere i don't usually drive and didn't want to take it online at all!)

Tonight Plans:

- upper body weights = done !
- start organizing docs for turbo tax if i do weights quickly when i first get home...
To summuarize this week: even though i am sleeping enough, it's been a week of less demands but feeling more tired and hungry. i am feeling quite under the weather in terms of energy this week. everyday i'm looking forward to going home.
it could be combined with knowing we will be moving offices soon, which can be very uncomfortable. it will be a new location, a trailer, a few stops closer to where i live :) but just the moving process is a little uncomfortable.
Progress as of today: -3 lbs lost so far, only 1 lbs to go!
This week feels to me like it's going so slowly! Like it's only Thursday?!
for some reason my body feels tired this week...with dull pains my upper body lately. like a dull soreness in my arms. not sure why. like i have slight chills and i'm sick - but i'm not. maybe i'm just fighting germs or something.
it's soooo much better when i do the pushups before work. because when i do them in combo with my other upper body moves, it takes some strength / energy away from those moves and it also just slows down my upper body workout. even though in mornings the pushups just take like 5 min, when i wait till evening, they could take forever ;) i just stretch it out. so it's good to get them done in the AM!
kombucha 80, later candies 50 before later breakfast at work, errand first
"better" breakfast (and split it into 2): english muffin 150, fish / bean patty 100, avo 150, coffee 50: 450
11am hot lemonade tea mix 50 cal
lunch: leftover chicken from Saturday night 200-250 (should be good just for today lol) and salad with dressing 100, english muffin 150, 500
snacks: plum, clementine 100, dried fruit 150, almonds 100
banaana and tea on walk home 100
dinner: tbd - i am still craving those gummies. not sure with what. Gummies 200, microwaveable egg bites 250
1950....

Have a great weekend!
you too...it'll be long and restful i think. i have Monday off as a vacation day bc i originally had an appt which i switched to another date but kept the day as off lol.
bearcountrygg on 03/13/2020:
Since you can take time off in March anyway....it worked out okay.
yes, i have 3 vacation days left this month...and also 2 sick days i planned to use next month...but can use them early if we have to take off
i have so many days this year because i was out on disability for 6 weeks in the fall and didn't use many of my vaca / sick days before that point!
Donkey on 03/14/2020:
Oh enjoy your baking this weekend!
I wrote on my entry today about needing time off. Ugh... I'm rather jealous. :-)
yes, the time off i have is really helping me to balance things and be able to do a little more each week ;) ...sorry you do not have the time off. usually the month of March is more of a struggle for me too. lol.
yes, hoping to bake and cook a few things :)
