Tue 12-4-12

Ok so in some ways I had a pretty rough weekend.  Yesterday worked a 12hr day.  Today ... well here I am.
I am doing pretty ok with things all in all.  Even with the personal junk that was going on with me over the weekend I didn't go out an over draw my food bank.  If anything I may have done some damage by not eating enough.  Oh an not sleeping well.  

I have kept up some form of exercise every day, at least walking ... aahhmm pretty much every day ?  lol  Ok so today I didn't walk.  And Saturday I didn't really go for walk but I did house cleaning and I did walk around Wal-Mart for at least 30 minutes Saturday night.  that's gotta count for something :D
Sunday .. ahhmm nope nuttin there.  Church, lunch and then came home to watch football.  

Yesterday I did get my 30+ minutes of walking in a work.  Today lunch held a run to Sams which cut into my walk time.  However on Saturday I did start the Holiday Squat-a-thon!!


So far I am still on track.  I can't say that it's my favorite thing to do.  The first day I'm thinking " I got this, no biggie".  The 2nd ok it's a lil more burn that I wanted but I need, I can do this.  This morning I decided I was going to do this before work .. at FIVE AM!!  The first 20 not so bad, but the last 5 I wanted to cry.  Did I give up? nope, nada, never.  I may have been in a crazy goofy mood when I said I would do this challenge but I will not give up ... but I am looking forward to days 10 and 27 I think they are going to be my favorite lol


So its been a month now since I kicked the caffeine and I feel good about it.  I don't have the withdraws like you would think.  I am not super tired all day.  The biggest thing for me is remember to check for caffeine.  oopss I can't say I am totally without caffeine.  I was baking cakes and my son requested chocolate.  Of course you know I had to have some ():D  But as for drinking it like I use toooooo at least 1-2 Monsters a day ... it's been a MONTH!!  yea me!!

I have managed to get more fiber foods in than I had been in prior months.  It's really done my body good, even though I still feel a bit sluggish at times, nope not a caffeine withdraw kind of sluggish, I am starting to feel better over all.

Now I want to try and get ride of carbs.  (my guilty please) This is going to be the real challenge and I am putting it off till Jan.  Not because I can't do it, but hey ... it's the holiday season.  I don't want to set myself up for failure.  I am monitoring my food and not overdoing anything.  With the increase in fibers it helps to not want the sugary foods too.  I want to keep this up for the month and hit it hard in Jan.  
So stand back, say a prayer and cheer me on ... or join me too :D
