WEEK 3

Holy. Crap.

This last week has been terrible.

I never knew how much I moved around until I couldn't do it anymore! Do you know how many times you need to move around the kitchen to bake a cake and making frosting for said cake? A LOT.

My ankle injury has been making me quite grumpy. I haven't been able to do anything like a normal human being. Lemme tell ya, bed rest would NEVER would out for me. I went nuts! I felt like a prisoner! I thought I was actually super lazy, but in fact, I cannot handle SITTING ALL DAY LONG while the house around me bursts into horribly, messy, crumb-filled garbage flames!

I may have had a mini explosion of emotional expression towards my husband during the last week over how messy the house was! I can't wait for my full mobility to be back!

On another note- my kids yell at me when I don't use my crutches and try to do too much around the house. I guess that means they love me, eh?

Well, about today, I went to the chiropractor. I was so nervous. The thought of him even touching my ankle made my chest feel tight and I wanted to cry.

He did his chiro-y magic on me and taped and wrapped me up. I didn't officially cry, but I did have my hands over my entire face the whole time while squealing and gasping into my hands as I fought back the tears. He probably thinks I'm the biggest wimp. Ha!

I sure hope it heals well and quickly!

I want to get back out there and run again!

I want to do PiYo!

I want to clean the house!

I want to do laundry!

SCUUUUUURCH.

WHAT?

I want to do LAUNDRY? Yeah, it's gotten to that point. I clearly need to get out of the house and get more fresh air!

As far as my goals for week 2- I totally failed. Like insanely. I ate food like it was going out of style. I downed 3/4 of my daughter's birthday cake and I didn't work out ONE BIT. I DID eat asparagus, though! I never eat veggies! Does it matter that it was swimming in butter? hehe. :)

Like I said, overall it was a crappy week. But hey. I'm human. It happens. Here's to week 3!

 MY MONTHLY GOALS FOR JULY:

-NO FAST FOOD FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH OF JULY

MY GOALS FOR WEEK 3:

-ARM WORK OUTS 3 TIMES THIS WEEK

-SIT UP/CORE WORKOUTS (ones that don't require me using my gimpy foot) 3 TIMES THIS WEEK 

-DRINK LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF WATER

  1. Carmen, do you know about the phone app called WaterMinder? It's been amazing at helping me maintain my daily water intake requirements. I think it's like $1. I've been using it for about a year now.
