So come on, ask me

Ask me if I went to the gym after work. I'll tell you the truth: no I did not. I have no excuses, just that I thought better of it. I'm still excited to conquer working out after work but I think it's smartest to do it on a day when I don't have to go back to work the next morning. For sleep's sake.

The good news is that I earned three activity points just running my butt around at work today. This day was a real shit sandwich. A day where I really kind of wanted to rise above, be the bigger person, take the high road, etc., but also I really wanted to punch someone (hey, hold out your face). It was just one thing after another, nothing that I can particularly blame anyone for, which sometimes makes it worse. Even as I sit here now I'm hearing phantom call bells and IV pumps beeping in the back of my head.

My eating was a little weird today. I ate alot of points but nothing felt satisfying, even though there were lots of power foods in the mix. I think it might have been because I ate a frozen meal for lunch. I rely on them on workdays because I'm just not good at planning ahead. Some of them really have no substance. I wish I could execute a plan to have healthy, filling leftovers for lunch on work days. Maybe someday I'll be that self-actualized.

I'm determined that tomorrow will be a better day and that I WILL find myself on the treadmill at this time tomorrow night. One thing that should help: my skinny scrubs are in the wash and will be ready for wearing.

  1. Maybe you should start something in the crockpot the night before? That way you could have some real food to take with you in the morning. Just a thought. I am bad at planning for lunches and/or having time to eat them!
