So today was a snow day. Yippee for snow. I started the day off very productive which was my goal. I made egg and sausage cups for breakfast for the remainder of the week. I also made a batch of green beans for Meredith. I unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher. I sat down to get some work done and realized it was about time for Meredith to have lunch so I woke her. She had been asleep for 3 hours so I really felt she needed to be up. I changed poopy diapers and fed her lunch. She proceeded to go right back to sleep. Ok, great...I went out and shoveled the driveway. There's my exercise. Then I came in to shower and dry my hair. This is where I screwed up. I dropped the soap (baby still asleep), I dropped the hair dryer (baby still asleep), I dropped my brush (baby still asleep), I accidentally let the cabinet door slam...I see little eyes peering at me when I walked into the hallway. She stayed awake the remainder of the day. SHe would fuss on and off so I really was not able to get anything more done before I needed to make dinner. Oh well. I am proud of what I accomplished.
Now I have been tracking this journey or at least trying to track it in terms of weeks. This is just not working for me. When I mess up I figure I might as well start over next week. I can;t keep doing that so no more weeks for me, only days. I will think in terms of days. I will look at the weekly part only for the weekly allowance, which I am trying not to use. I will also still weigh in officially once a week. I might weigh more when the mood strikes me. So there it is. I will update the food journal as I have time but I am not going to stress about it.
My weight watchers leader likes to say "You didn't get here by one meal, or one day, or even one week" The sooner you jump back on the wagon the better off you are - good for you to start thinking in terms of days vs weeks, hopefully you will be plesantly surprised by the results.
