Im here Im here!

Did I really go 3 days without writing in here? OY! Well I have a reason, or excuse or both.

Lets start with the funk week. I declare last week my "get out of funk free" card. I was in a funk. Funky funk. Although I got in one good workout and ate so-so, I am back on track and determined to kick ass this week (even with my yearly sister weekend coming up this week!)

So Matt left Thursday night for his friends wedding that he was in this weekend. So it was me and little bean. And for some reason, I was stressed about being getting everything done without Matt around (and now greatly appreciate that I dont have to do parenthood alone!) So I didnt work out much and my eating was not on par. I had a few handfuls of m&ms at work on top of cake. I tried to be decent by eating good at lunch and dinner with Ava (turkey burgers, chicken, etc) but I think the sweets killed it.

Then Saturday we headed down to Santa Barbara to meet up with Matt for the wedding. I'll spare the details but lets just saying taking a 13 month old to a wedding was a disaster. She's mobile now so all she wanted to do was walk (in one direction mind you, and it was never the direction I wanted her to go) and when she was being held it was only by me (she wouldn't even let Matt hold her). So we left (before dinner!) to get ms. poopypants back to the apartment we were staying at. I ate half a sandwich and a bowl of kix for dinner as my destressing comfort food from the 5 hour car ride and 2 hour struggle to get my child to sleep that night. My back was aching from hunching over following Ava as she walked just in case she started to fall face foward and my arms felt like I did 10 pound weights for an hour from carrying her (does that count as exercise?)

This morning we went out for breakfast for father's day and I had (holding nothing back): hash browns, eggs and toast. I didnt get all the eggs and hashbrowns and I shared my toast with Matt, but nonetheless, it was still a lot of food. For lunch we stopped at McDonalds. I was still quite full from lunch but got a 10 piece chicken nugget meal (with fries). I ate 7 chicken nuggets and a handful of fries (seriously, I was throwing away almost a whole carton of fries). I also only drank half of my diet soda. For dinner I had a small burrito at home with turkey meat, cheese and salsa.

This coming weekend is sister weekend. I will be visiting my sister in LA Thursday night through Sunday morning. I am DE-TER-MINED to have a wonderful time within my food/exercise budget. I have only four months until conference....

I think I can, I think I can, I think I can....
