Well. It's safe to say I fell off my plan.
I had a BLAST at the Nature Inn at Bald Eagle State Park. It was hot and humid, so I sat on my deck and relaxed. I watched a deer for a while.
I also drank beer. 3 of them. I talked to my brother, I made s'mores. I tried to take a feral cat home with me. I thought better of it, though.
The following day, I felt I had been cheated out of my cheat day (I didn't intend to cheat, but I was unprepared for the food options), so I went to Waffle Shop. Then, later, Chick-fil-a.
I also skimped on sleep one night because I had a presentation to give and I needed to prepare myself for it so that I could do a great job. I did do a great job, but the lack of sleep hurt my determination to eat well.
I made it to Amy's class on Wednesday, and I KILLED IT! I couldn't believe that I was so tired and yet performing really well! It gave me a new sense of what my body is capable of. It didn't hurt that I got lots of encouragement from Amy. :)
Then I went to a friend's place for an art class, which was AWESOME!!! And, she had coconut margaritas. I resisted for a half-hour, but then (I blame sleep deprivation. I would never last as a parent.) I ended up having one. And some wine. And later a beer. And even later, three slices of pizza.
So. Today was a new day. I started it off not so great. Woke up exhausted, no time to cook. So I ate a breakfast special from Irving's. Double Egg! Then the day just went so fast! I ended up trying to make good choices at Wegman's.
I did manage to make myself a chicken ceasar salad with romaine and spinach. However, I also bought a slice of pizza, a chocolate chip cookie, and I bought a mocha frappuccino at Starbucks.
I think I'm ready for some food that is fuel and that helps me stay even. I've just got to get the ball rolling. You can see I even fell off the blogging wagon. Although I did type up a blog last night whilst under the influence. By some small miracle, it failed to publish. Lucky me!
So. The first step is self-care. Getting to bed at a decent hour. That is my next goal.
