Wow, it is May already. I can't believe how fast this year is going. So much has already happened in these 4 months. Lots of bad things - friends dying, my sister dying, people I know being diagnosed with cancer. Time just rolls right along regardless of what we are going through. There are days that I wish I could stop time and savor the moments, and then there are days that I wish would just get done with already! But, we can't wish our lives away! We have to live in the moment and enjoy it for what it is. Makes me think of a saying one of my previous co-workers used to say, "If 'ifs' and 'buts' were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas!". So for today, let's try to not wish or regret something, let's just DO IT!
Still having that snacking problem at night. I am not sure how that food gets into my house (ha-ha), but I have to stop it. I bought a whole bunch of fruit (strawberries, grapes, pears, watermelon and bananas) the other day so hopefully that will lead me to eat something healthy instead of something not so healthy. Wish summer coming, I am hoping that I will continue to be drawn towards the fruits and veggies aisle instead of the snacks and crackers!
I didn't stick to my 3x week at the gym rule last week either. Only went twice, but I did spend most of the day Saturday walking around Anoka - shopping! And resisted the urge to buy/eat the most delightfully sinful chocolate covered desserts (but did have a taste or two of my sister's and her friends). It is good to know that it's there, just a few miles away in case of emergency!!
So I am going to try to eat healthier this week and get to the gym at least 3 times. That's my promise to myself!! What are YOU going to do this week (if anyone is reading this - I swear I am typing all this out just for my own sanity)?
I'm reading this!!! I'm going to try to make some food for our household this weekend! There are too many lunches of crackers or muffins at the coffeeshop! I feel like I don't have time to cook! Oh - and when you're here we can have a dinner on the roof - I'll make a delicious healthy meal for us! Hope you're week goes well Mom xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteGlad someone is reading! I want to make those muffins you wrote about in your blog. They sound good and healthy. Just have to buy the stuff to make them! I did manage to get to the gym 3x this week, so I feel good about that! We'll shop a farmer's market in Seattle when I am there, too! That'll be fun! Love you! xoxoxo
