#jumpstartjune16

Overall, I think this was a successful June with working out again. I just.. don’t feel like I’ve made progress so I don’t even know what successful really means...

I had a good hour in the pool just kinda walking and getting those muscles going and such, but didn’t get to C25K unfortunately :(

I literally failed all of my goals. Great. @gerinurse @performancerhinestones @journeyoftheartist

The final chapter.....it was so hot and humid here today. I can't stand that kind of weather and with the continuously building storm that never seems to arrive I have a constant headache. That all said I still ate heathy except for the hot dog for supper 🙄 and I drank tons of water. I Think that the real goal of a challenge like this is to go back and see if you met you goals, so here goes nothing😉 🍉Overall goal was to loose 10 lbs- I lost 5 lbs which I think is pretty good for me 🍓walk dog a minimum of 4 x/ week - I manage an average of 3 x/ week 3 weeks in a row. 🍓 keep an accurate food journal-failed miserably. I have a hard time when not working and I was off for 2 weeks. I also am really bad when hubby is home. I was sporadic at best but I plan to make this a July goal. 🍓 Meal Plan- not great but not bad. When I was working I planned well but when I was off I grabbed what I felt like when I was hungry. 🍓Meal prep- when I was working I did this every week. The two weeks I was off I prepped nothing 🙄 🍓stop drinking liquid sugar especially pop- I did well overall. I had about 5 all month and plan to cut that to nothing. 🍓clean up and make my gym space in my basement - yay I did this and am so happy! 🍓 establish firm routines - I tried but with 2 weeks off and hubby home suddenly I didn't get the routines entrenched. Again this will be a focus for July as hubby will be away. 🍓 Start crush program if feeling able-I have yet to start but still plan to. Life felt overwhelming this month and I had too much on my plate. Combined with the frequent headaches and generally not feeling well I chose to not overdo. I know my limits. I feel good about the month overall and am pleased with what I did accomplish. I have a long way to go still but will keep working on these gaols as they are black and white. Thanks for the amazing support. 😉 @imladris14 @performancerhinestones

Well today is the last day of this series it seems. What are we supposed to do in July? Anyway, good things: tomorrow is Friday, I ate pizza, I'm alive. Really wasn't a whole lot that went on today. Just work and it was really hot outside. I'm really tired and about to head to bed. Tomorrow is going to be hard at work because no one will want to work due to it being the holiday weekend and guaranteed people will most likely just be dicking around. Maybe I'll get off early though. And it's a three day weekend for me. Food was mostly good today other than the extra slice of pizza I decided to eat. That may have not been a good plan since I feel slightly nauseous? But that might just be heat and not the actual pizza. Anyway I'm dragging now so I'm headed for sleep. @gerinurse @performancerhinestones @journeyoftheartist

i did nothing because last night was either “eat something to come CLOSER to your BMR, probably not even enough” or work out. sigh.

Good things: I survived what felt like the seventh layer of hell at work, I did legs and cardio at the gym and did pretty well, I didn't eat any fast food, and I did finally talk to the boy. He apologized for not telling me what had happened on Saturday. His truck apparently broke down and he spent all day at the shop and then his kids were crying all day because they knew he was leaving the next day. I can't be mad at that. They're little and won't get to see their father for 6 months so I relented some of my anger. He at least realized he should have texted me or something. So we'll see how things go. But I think him and I will have to have the conversation again about what he wants from this but I'll hold off because they effed up his orders in Texas and now he's basically not getting paid which is not okay. So I will wait. Anyway I'm definitely going to try to sleep tonight. The last couple of nights have been wonky so I am ready to go to bed at 9 lol. @gerinurse @performancerhinestones @journeyoftheartist

Oh boy, I need to apologize to my accountability partners for dropping the ball. I don't know where the last 3 days have gone! Monday was my first day back at work which was crazy enough. I had 240 emails between my 2 computers and a mailbox on my door stacked with paper. If it weren't for the fact that my job is incredibly high stress and I would loose my mind if I didn't take time off, I would not bother with time off. Sometimes the extra work makes it seem like it's not worth it 🙄. Fruit and yogurt for lunch as I was so hot that I really didn't want to eat. This was also hubby's birthday so after a 10 hr day I took him out for supper. We went to RedLobster where I managed to keep things within reasonable control. Home late then straight to bed. Lots and lots of water. Tuesday was another 10 hr day at work and I had leftovers from my supper for lunch. Busy busy day and then home to find hubby and our nephew putting dirt in my flower beds and drinking beer 😉. Picked up nephews fiancé and we made burgers and veggies for supper. Another late night where I didn't get to bed until midnight. Today I woke up with a horrible headache and was puffy everywhere. My hands, feet and face. Especially my eyes were full of fluid. My eyes were also horribly red and itchy. I would have stayed home but was short staffed at work and also had a WebEx conference I could not miss. So off to work I went and didn't eat all day as my stomach hated me. Had a ton of water and a ginger ale. Came home early and had an hours nap. Hubby called and said he was helping nephew with yard work today and that nephews fiancé was going to stop on her way home from work and pick me up. Off to their house where we had pizza and ceased salad. Home now and it's 930 pm. I am done and heading to bed. I still have a headache and feel gunky and just want to sleep. It's been a really long week so far. I was off for 2 weeks and I know that the 2 bosses above me and our admin assistant HATE when I am away. I don't know why as I'm not indispensable. I think it's because I try to keep everything on an even keel. I'm pretty relaxed and don't let my staff get worked up. It must have been a bad 2 weeks because they all decided to take this week off 🙄. Meanwhile I end up doing my job plus theirs and to top it off nobody ordered the building or stationary supplies. That means I'm juggling allot! Tomorrow will be busy again and hubby is going golfing. I have a meeting tomorrow after work and then Friday is a stat for us in Canada, thank heavens. The weekend will be spent packing for hubby as he has to leave for his job 3 hrs away on Monday. I have no idea what his schedule will be or when he will be home next but getting back into routine will be nice. @imladris14 @performancerhinestones
