Good Grief

Another crazy day.  Little Jack took a big turn for the worse just as I finished my workout and we ended up at the vet the rest of the morning.  Home by 1 o'clock, hungry (no breakfast), drained and already done with the day.  I spent the afternoon cooking and prepping for the next few days.

Up several times in the night with Jack - poor sweet boy.  He can't catch a break and neither can I!!

So ....

Today, I'm trying for a recharge moment, AGAIN!  Come on Universe ... it's time to have a good day.

Yesterday was the hardest day so far.  No breakfast because I had to rush out the door with Jack.  I was so hungry that even a big lunch didn't make up for the missed meal.  Cue the cravings.  Cue the desire to relax with food/wine.  I made it, but it was an effort.

Should I have contacted my coach?  Who knows.  What would she say - yep, it's a crappy day.  Don't have wine.  It's a Saturday - seemed wrong.

On a positive note, I feel slimmer.  Not an enormous difference in the pants fitting, but overall water retention and bloat is much better.  I'll take the win.  This means better things on the horizon.  Another week and I should see some results in my pant agony LOL.

Louie goes to his new home today.  I'll miss him, but I desperately need to lessen my dog load.  Three sick dogs, 2 fosters, fundraising events  ... it's too much right now.  I need more ME time, self-care and relaxation.  Taking 4 dogs out (because when one goes, they all want to go) every hour or so is a HUGE PAIN!! At least the messy poop clean up is over.

I'm planning a lift workout today.  Boy, my muscles are tired though.  I did an interval run on the treadmill and a long dog walk yesterday -- glad I got that in before all hell broke loose.  I might need a workout-lite week to get my muscles and energy happy again.  We'll see.  It doesn't help that my sleep is messed up, my monthly is STILL heavy (thanks travel) and I'm still early in Whole30.  I am boxing 2 times this week though - you heard it here folks!!

Okay, so much to say, but no time this morning.  Brain fog, dog needs and it's a done deal for now.  Later gators.
