Grateful Saturday

I am grateful I got to spend time last night with a lost friend. She is a special soul and I have learned much from her. I am thankful I have new organic makeup to use to help be feel better about myself. I am trying hard to slow down and appreciate what I have
 I need to do more, will do more to take care of myself from eating right, drinking right and taking care of my emotions.

Grateful Tuesday

I am grateful to have a job and nice people at my job.

I am grateful to have healthy and living kids.

I am grateful Joe worked out last night.

Day 1

Cannot stop eating, caramel rolls, candy, fruit cups, bread sticks ... You name it I have eaten it today. Hormones are all there which supports the pattern but hate it all the same.

Off course

Got off course after some recent company. Way over did it. Trying to recover and get back into good habits.

Need to take a break from dairy and sugar for a couple of weeks.

Grateful Saturday 2/6

I am grateful we can work as a family to get the house ready and that we are not so overwhelmed with activities that would not be possible.

I am grateful that my Isogenix shipment arrived prior to starting work. I can have a shake for lunch while I have a conference call with my new boss.

Grateful Friday 2/5

I am grateful for my last day of sleeping in. I am grateful for an awesome facial yesterday and having money to buy products.

I am stressed that Joe brought home news yesterday that I will have to be more of a project instead of a product manager. I need to understand the expectations for my role. What success looks like. I am a little disappointed that my first meeting with my new boss will be over the phone but shakes here I come at least for a little while. I need to relearn what hungry feels like and need to eat to live not to deal with stress.

Grateful Thursday 2/4

I am grateful for these last couple of days with no work responsibilities. I am grateful my husband has given me time just for me.

I am worried about starting work and keeping it all together. Eating, working out, keeping up with the kids, maintaining their schedules. What if I cannot keep up with work. First time as an employee in five years.

My plan is to work out in the morning. I plan to use the shakes to figure hunger. I don't know how to transition of them but they are so expensive I will have to. I am trying not to worry about that yet.

Grateful

I am grateful that I have my health. I am grateful my kids have their health. I am grateful that Joe is healthy and working towards getting healthier.

Friday 1/8

Made an awesome dinner of turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes with butter, cream cheese and sour cream, roasted broccoli, peas, gravy, salad and rolls. I could not stop eating though :-) The cheese cake even turned out good. I did not work out since I was so busy cleaning the house and getting ready for the party. I started cooking at 3:00 and we ate 5:30.

Today I had a shake breakfast. For lunch I had leftover meatloaf, broccoli, potatoes and a ciabatta roll. Now I have heartburn. I think I put to much adobo on the broccoli. I did do a great cardio workout at Laura's house though. I have also ordered supplements and shakes through Laura. Expensive but high quality.

Wednesday

Very, very tired today. Woke up and had 1/2 banana, applesauce and a shake (not great but not horrible). For lunch had a green salad with caesar dressing and Amy's ravioli. For dinner the kids are going to have hot dogs and vegetables. I am nervous about my interview today. I obviously struggling being just a stay at home mom. I miss having other things to focus on, I am not happy to clean and organize the house.

YESTERDAY

Need to find a better way to deal with being tired. Alessandra was also very stressful. I think she was hungry but either way it was a little bit of a mess.

Sleep: D (woke up again to Joe's snoring. Cannot tell if he is snoring more or I am sleeping lighter either way it sucks)

Post Christmas vacation

It has been difficult getting back to into the groove. Yesterday I did a very tough workout at Laura's house. I wanted to quit, leave the room and cry all at the same time. It stunk. I had a shake breakfast which kept me full until lunch. For lunch I had Samaso but then I could not stop eating in the afternoon. Good news was after lunch

Sleep: C: (did not stop reading until after 10; which was 1+ hours)

Exercise: A (tough workout at Laura's and ran 1 mile)
