Sidetracked

My my my...how very very easy it is to get sidetracked.  From anything in life really.  For me, its been work that has "sidetracked" me from my efforts/focus on the gym and healthy eating since the end of last week (let's say oh, Thursday-ish).

So.....I let things slide a little, didn't care what I ate at the water park with James on our day off last Friday (a last hurrah fun day before school started on Monday)....that carried over into Saturday, no workouts over the weekend...I went Monday morning, slept in yesterday morning which was STUPID since my Pearland Y is doing renovations in the cardio and weights rooms today, tomorrow and Friday, so I CANT go in the mornings now until the weekend - well, EARLY mornings till Monday.  Bright move Renee.....so did I go at lunchtime yesterday either?  that would be a big ole NOOOOOOO cause I wasnt feeling it.  Craved a soda SO bad at lunchtime, fought that off by getting a Wendy's chocolate shake (seriously??)....and called the boys on my way home, asked what they wanted for dinner, and we all decided on Burger King.  Talk about a freakin AVALANCHE yesterday.....good lord!

But you know what?  Today is a new day...that is all behind me......my friend Tanya (who also had a shitty day yesterday) and I are definitely hitting the Y at lunchtime today, I've got stuff to do around the house tonight after work that will keep me moving and busy after dinner (and not planting my ass in my recliner to watch the young and the restless on my DVR...since I will now watch it on the treadmill at lunchtime...hee hee).  So no need to beat myself up needlessly over yesterday (and the couple of days that were attached to it before that...LOL!)

Got my list of goals for September almost finalized, which I will post by this weekend.  Cannot BELIEVE its almost September, fall is right around the corner - cant wait for that so we are OUT of this freaking ongodly heat and humidity here in Houston.  Almost made it thru my no soda August challenge (got a little dicey there yesterday but I got thru it and remained at not even a sip for 28 days - today is day 29).  Set goals, meet them, set new goals.  Little pieces at a time, not so overwhelming....conquer them and add new goals...it all adds up over time into big lasting changes.  :)

Happy middle of the week y'all!!  Gonna make the rest of my week awesome!!!
