extremes

I have decided that my problem is that I work in extremes. I am either on track or competely off track!

When i get on track I tend to eat only " healthy" foods but not enough of them and I work out an 1-2 hours a day.

Which is not sustainable for me. I need to eat healthy but not eat only healthy foods. I need pasta and ice cream and pizza some too. I am all about a healthy life but a healthy life for me. I would love to eat as healthy as some of the bloggers out there now but this is definately something to work toward!

I am going to work on this healthy life with one step at a time! Today I worked out!!!!

This week I am going to work on
*working out
*drinking less pop at work
*watching portions


I started off me morning with a 5 minute devotional and headed off to make me some breakfast!!

I checked some bloggies and Furby the amazing wondercat joined me!

I had some yummlicious oatmeal. Totally hit the spot!!

*1/2 c. oatmeal

*1/2 c. milk

*brown sugar, raisins and coconut!

All mixed in!

Lunch consisted of some annie's mac and cheese and a piece of garlic

bread with a glass of water

And I may or may not of taken a spoon of frosting from the cupboard!

I am off to the bank and then work!!

I didn't just fall of the wagon it ran over me!

I just can't seem to get motivated about anything lately. Cleaning the house, cooking,all of it! Forget about eating helathy and exercising !

I want to get out of my little slump! starting tomorrow!

Tomorrow morning I will:
* read my bible ( I find that this grounds me the best)
* exercise
* make myself a green monster
* pack my lunch for work
*clean up my house( not a lot just a little)

small steps right. I did clean up my house a little over the weekend and it helped alot.

I'm not sure what my problem is but I am going to get out of it
and start blogging too to help me stay accountable!

I CAN DO THIS!!

On a happy note one of my favorite blogs is having a amazing meal giveaway! Go over to Angela's blog to check it ou!!

See you tomorrow!! ;)

oh my!!

Toooo hot to handle..... or maybe to burnt!

I finally got my camera back!! WOOOT so back to regular blogging for me. This weekend I had a the bacholorette party for the wedding that I am maid of honor in august! It was so much fun! We hit the bars on friday night and then saturday we hung out at the pool for the majority of the day. This morning we hung out at the pool for about 2 hours and I got FRIED!!!! Not good. I used SPF 55 too! It's totally unfair! Yesterday we stayed out for about 3-4 hours and I was fine absolutely fine! 2 hours today and I am fried! URG! I just took a super hot bath to let some of the toxins out and have used a ton of aloe! Hopefully it goes away fast because I am working 60 hours this week! YUCK!

Here is the damage: The pics do not do it justice at all!




In the next one you can see the line across my chest where all of sudden I am not burnt anymore! It's so weird!

Oh.... busy bee weekend

So saturday started out at 5:30 as I had to be at work at 6:00

I did very well eating healthy at work on saturday. I left work at 4:00 and headed to the scrapbooking store.

I am maid of honor is a wedding in August and am making the shower invites. It's alot of work but it will be well worth it in the end. I will show you pics of the process soon! It was quite the process.

I then went to wisconsin dells to check out some attractions that we might hit during the bacholorette!

I hit some stores and picked up some new shoes! I am excited about the new shoes.

We had someone quit at my second job so I picked up a shift on sunday as well. I know it was sooooo nice of me but let me tell you 3:30 a.m. came supa quick. After work at 12:00 I worked on invites again for about 6 hours. I know crazy right.

Today after work I went back to the scrap book store to pick up some more supplies I am hoping to finish them up today and tomorrow!


Some mango-black tea I got at Totally Tea when i was shopping on saturday!
