"Freggie" Fail

So...um...yeah....I haven't had a good week.  Monday - total fail.  Ate no produce (fruit + veggies = freggies) and got in no workout.  I think the FB participation points are stupid so I am not tracking those so HBBC points = 0 for Monday.  And don't even bring up MMNW.  UGH!  Not a pretty number.

Tuesday was another freggie fail, but at least basketball practice gave me about an hour to get in a mile on the treadmill (broken into two 0.5 mi because I had to pee as soon as I started running - what's up with that?).  I then realized I had failed to change bras and the one I had on was not going to work with running.  So I switched it up to the stationary bike and sweated for 30 min (7.6 miles).  HBBC points = 3.5 for Tuesday.

Wednesday, I barely ate because work was getting the better of me and then I got a call that son was sick at school (fever).  Ugh.  Self-soothed with ice cream on the way home and then shared a dinner of chicken strips with the kids all while trying to pull everything together to lead a group of Brownies (scouts) through learning the "Wonders of Water" (a multi-session deal - how do I get myself signed up for this shit?).  I did some more "escaping" into the TV last night and, no - not while doing the "Workout of the Week".  HBBC points = ZERO for Wed.

Home with sick boy today.  I'm feeling down and out myself though mentally, not physically.  I was touched by Deb's post about soothing with food because I've been feeling like that a bit today.  I did manage to restock my fridge, but instead of cooking up something good for me - I tried to finish off the last of the leftover chili for lunch (blech) and topped it off with a Coke and a handful of Cheetos.  At least there is basketball practice tonight - maybe another quick run/bike session will make me hate the world a little less.

  1. Sometimes the mind can keep us from being sure best selves. I fall into that trap all the time. You are not alone. Holla if I can help!

  4. I'm definitely a stress eater. Even when I KNOW I'm doing it, I still can't seem to help myself. You had a couple off days...hopefully your basketball-time workout will shake off some of the stress and tomorrow will be a better day!

  5. I'm vegetarian so it would be really hard for me to go a day without freggies! :-) You'll get back on track I'm sure of it!

  6. Nah, no biggie. You need to look at things over months not days...

  7. Don't beat yourself up too bad, just take some baby steps in the right direction. Easier said than done, I know.
