Becoming a Butterfly

Yesterday I worked all day.   As I was heading out, I started sneezing…and it was there all day.  I started feeling very run down.  Came home and went straight to bed.  Then passed out.  Woke up around 1:00 am, and then back to sleep…up at 9:00am…And now, I am sleepy again.  I must be fighting a bug.

Having my period too…yesterday was the first bad day.  Taking iron, echineacea, vitamin C, Vitamin A, and E.

This week was pretty good…I logged all week and (if I exercise today) got all my exercise in too.   Didn’t meet the 1200 cals…but stayed very close to the 1500…so that was good!  

Began adopting the biggest loser plan…the best part for me was less carbs…much less…and adding a lot of protein.  The protein took off the edge that I sometimes get when I get hungry.  It was like the hunger would come more gradually, instead of just making me feel crazy for food…and compulsive.

Did great with the fresh fruit, but still need to eat more veggies.   If I could just plan to eat a big salad every day I think that would take care of it!   Still need to watch the nuts…my hubby loves them, and eats them in front of me…so that makes it harder….no excuse…just the reality of it.

The scale is right at 240…and even went to 239 this week…so it is still just hovering.  But hoping that will change soon.  Feeling hopeful since I am on my period…that it is probably lower than that.  It was all the way up to 242 when I got back from my vacation.

Also hoping my period will be better on Monday…cause I meet with my trainer, Shana for the first time.  Woop Woop!

Excited, but also nervous.   We originally talked about getting together 2 times a week, but I proposed the same price for 3 times and she agreed!  Yeah!

What will she have me do?  Will I be really sore?  How much will we be able to do in 30mins?  Will it fit in my schedule?

Found out yesterday one of the customer service people is going to be gone for a couple of days, and that is when they usually call me to fill in, so that will make scheduling with the trainer harder.  But I know God will work it out for me…and I’ll have more $ to pay for the training!

Well…I think I am going to take a nap…sleep off this bug and get some much needed rest.

Hope you all have a great day!
