I'm checking back in because the struggle is REAL today!
I predicted a post-challenge day that might require a Herculean effort to stay on point. Yep. Did I jinx it or is it a self-fulfilling prophecy? More like been-there-done-that too many times to count.
This morning was busy. Long dog walk (3 miles), cleaning crew (so dog management), lunch prep, laundry and NOW .... RELAX time! Except I want to eat. I'm NOT hungry (I had big, yummy lunch). I want the chocolate candy and the cookies and the cheese and a piece of cake. And, because I'm reasonable, I'll wait to want wine until 4 o'clock, but that's on the list too.
Given how much I'm craving sweets, this might be a PMS moment. If my schedule holds true, it's 2 days away. Because of travel, everything was wonky and early last month, so maybe - maybe not. I didn't do anything yesterday that SHOULD trigger SWEETS craving.
As I'm typing, I'm getting more convinced this is PMS. Oh lordy. No break for the weary this week. A refrigerator full of extra yummy no-nos that will derail me and set my stomach off and make me feel lousy (after I bask in the joy of stuffing my face) is NO BEUNO this week!!
It's only 1:30 -- not even the witching hours yet! I'm home alone with dogs and my cravings and adding to the mix is I AM SO TIRED!! Like take-a-nap tired (which I only do about twice a year).
Maybe I should nap? Maybe that will make time go by AND cure my tired. I have 6 hours before it's reasonable to go to bed. That might mess up my early bed in a big way. On the rarest of occasions that I do nap, it's never for 20 minutes. More like HOURS.
Okay - enough venting. I need to stay clear of the refrigerator and get busy doing something ... anything. 6 hours left ... fingers crossed!
EDIT:
4 o'clock and I already ate dinner. Best I could do ... oh, I want those sweets!!!
