On Plan

Today I:

-got up at 12:30 pm to make hubby's lunch and spend a few minutes with him before he left.

-went back to bed at 1p,

-slept until 4 pm

-made a bag of microwave popcorn, without any salt or butter.

-ate the entire bag.

-had a glass of apple juice (.5 serving of fruit)

-did a load of dishes

-took the moving handlebars off of my stationary bike. (I don't feel they work out my arms and they hit me a lot if I try to change my song on my ipod)

-tested out the bike. I like it a lot.

Still left to do:

-make spaghetti.

-sing a song based on the tune of "Bootylicious" by Destiny's Child while making spaghetti... I don't think you're ready for my sketti...

-work out for an hour. I think I'll do 30 day shred for 30 minutes and bike for 30.

-load of laundry.

what an exhausting day, no wonder I sleep half of it away haha

Keep it together

That's all this week is about. Keeping it together.

I've started up a monthly and weekly menu for hubby and I. I'm really excited because it gives me a chance to add in more healthy options. (In the form of V8 of course) that way we can get all our veggies! I don't really have a problem with them as much anymore. Mostly fruits now.

But I love apple juice and hey, that counts.

Tomorrow, going to do 30 Day Shred again. God, it's going to kill me. But I am looking forward to it.

Bloodwork

Now that hubby has great insurance I am going to get my bloodwork that my doctor has been asking me to do for a while now.

I'm nervous. I'm not a fan of needles in any sense, but I do donate blood on a semi-regular basis (twice a year, trying to get hubby to do it more often too, because he has "pure" blood and they always need that)

I'm going to have my thyroid checked, to see if there are any underlying issues (ie pre-diabetes, diabetes, whatever else) and it's a great idea. I just don't want to do it. But I am not going to let my reluctance or apprehension to stand in the way. Just because I don't want to face facts doesn't mean they aren't there. Or maybe nothing will be wrong. Who knows? That's why I am doing this in the first place.

There is some family history that concerns the dr, and he is just doing his job and looking out for me. I'll make an appointment for after the 15th and see what I have to do.

It would be so easy to go ostrich on this one. To bury my head in the sand. But I am not.

I'll keep you all updated. Wee!
