Too much going on at work to post this week. At home I'm too fried to think to post at night. So writing a quick one before work.
I've run twice this week, am eating ok but have slipped up at night, and am keeping my weight down. But, I am a ball of stress and nerves because of all I have going in at work and with kids and with the holidays.
Doesn't help that I have pms and the moon is on its full cycle, which I truly believe, now that I'm paying attention, influences my moods.
Mostly I'm just tired of all the responsibility at work. The new girl has no experience, is very nice and I like her, but it will take a long time for her to get up to speed. I have no control over that situation.
Mark has basically been sick for 2 weeks--with a brief wellness period on the weekend--and that's put a lot on me as well.
Top it off with Christmas chaos and I'm going a bit crazy.
I'm taking the week before Christmas off work. It will be a push to get it all done next week. But there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you for checking on me, Vickie.
Haven't had a chance to answer your comment on my last post on 20 pounds. I want to get back into my size 8s which means 149-152 lbs. I want to be in the 145-148 range as my "final" goal. Final as in, see how possible it is to maintain that weight long term. I looked great at that weight and ran a Half marathon at a fast for me pace. So that's another 20 pounds to lose.
Now that I'm home, I am also feeling the loss of these 20 pounds. I can run 11:15 minute miles now without walking. My clothes are loose. I'm in 34D bras. As long as I'm not hanging out with size 0s, I feel good about how I look.
