Ahh I was almost forgetting that today is Friday!
Well my fingers got a lot of work out today since T and I had two separate Mario Bros game sessions today. (Side note: at least he’s accepting when I say I need a break and he DID go happily play with toys away from all things electronic! 😉
Didn’t make it to the gym but Dave had the car so… 😉 No excuse. I could have gone for a walk with the Rex.
I’m a little frustrated with my weight progress, or lack there of. I’m definitely exercising a lot more regularly than before and the scale STILL says the same numbers on it. I get that there is a period of muscle gain/fat loss but the scale still stays the same. No, the scale isn’t broken because Dave can use it and it still works for him!
Next Monday I start another juice fast and I’m actually really excited about doing it again. I know it sounds crazy but I really enjoyed the last one I did (almost a year ago!) I felt so much better during and afterwards. I appreciated food a lot more and appreciated what foods were best for my body. Darn me for not continuing with all that I gained from that experience…however, find me a person who can keep up a good diet during the holidays. Go ahead, find me one!
I’ve just been waiting for the fridge to clear out a bit and for work/travel schedules to collide so I don’t have to worry/feel guilty that I’m not making “real” dinners for us. T will still get the same sort of meals he always gets but the last time I juiced Dave ate sandwiches for two weeks!
At least I can say that I *think* my legs are recovered from last weekend’s race. My ankles and shin splints were pretty bad for a few days and every attempt at running (on a treadmill) didn’t go very well.
We’re going out tomorrow night for a date night which means I get to indulge a little. Sadly my brain keeps telling me to eat, eat, eat because once I start juicing I won’t get to…silly brain!
