Hi, I'm D and I did not meal prep this week.

Snacks

Peanut Butter cookie
Devil Blueberry Donuts
Total $80 with a standard deviation of $5 (say huh say what!!!!!)
I coulda mealprepped for 4 with that!
I'm sharing all this because I can get in denial. A visual is REAL, DEEP accountability for me. I can log in My Fitness Pal all day but if I can't find it, I won't log it. *shrug*

Lunch:
garlic shrimp w/ Spinach, zucchini, squash and peppers
Dinner:
Baked Tilapia w/ Spinach, Zucchini, Squash and peppers
Snack: Almonds, Dark Chocolate or Peanut butter
THANK GOD I exercised!!! Praises!
I'm probably having a maintenance week that won't show up til next week...damn me.
I have definitely learned that "Failing to Prepare is Preparing to Fail and this week was a #FAIL
Meal Prep makes such a difference in my life. It kills the confusion and temptation.
I read the most beautiful, tearful inspirational post on Wednesday. This woman had me in tears. Find it here @ OperationSkinnyJeans . She just laid it all out on the table and I moved my heart. I'm not a big emotional girl but she got me together. I'm entering my 2nd year of my lifestyle change and I hit a pothole, my tire busted and I in the process and fixing it so I can keep on going. He post got me to get the tire out of the trunk. Thanks so much.
Today Starts the "Getting My Shit Together" Goal...lol
5 Things are going to happen, going forward.
1. Return to Meal Prep Mondays
I absolutely LOVE chopping up veggies and post them to Instagram on Mondays. It was fun and gave me something to look forward to. I also got lots of ideas from #MealPrepMonday post. So, BOOM back at it!
2. Strength Training (at home)
Last Friday or was it Friday before last... *shrug* I came up with a pretty good strength training routine that I have been putting off doing...don't know why. I enjoy strength training...LOVE THE BURN and the way my body feels, not to mention the inches it dissolves.
3. Increase my mileage.
I'm doing a Miles Challenge and I have been doing the bare minimum. ugh...just lazy. Eve's Curse drains the life out of me. It's done and now I have to get back to the 4-5miles a day. I'm love walking and I know combined with the strength training the calorie burn will be great!
4. Get my Mental Discipline in check
The mind is weak...well mine has been for a couple weeks. I need to search my brain for the trigger that has set me back...It's more than Eve. I have had Eve every month for the year I have been in the journey. There is something more going on in my head. (self sabotage)
5. SLEEP
I hate missing my TV shows and I'm usually in the bed 10:30 -11pm. I'm going to have to get grandma and hit the sack at like 9:30!!!! I am sleepy! It's important and necessary. I don't like to HAVE to drink coffee...lol
Simply put...I want it like the air I breathe.
I'm not lost, just confused. Getting that together to match the goals I have set for ME!
Have a Wonderful weekend you guys.
