I’ve been a bit off track this past week. I’ve just been so worried about Ms. Katie. As her swelling comes down in her face because the steroids are starting to work, you can really see some muscle atrophy happening. Her face was small to start with, now it is really slim and with protruding bones… I’m sad…. Every time I look at her I worry. However each day she is able to open her mouth a bit more. She is panting and eating better but still not full mouth extension. She may never be able to hunt again and that is her life – she loves it!
I’ve been stressed and eating off plan a bit. Some munching on non-JC snacks, missing meals, a couple more beers on the weekend when we had company over. Not a huge amount but still… I’ve been doing it. I can’t keep falling off the wagon just because life throws me something. It should be making me stronger, not weaker.
I’m back on track right now, right this very minute, and will make each moment to come on track. I’ve got something to look forward to again…
We are booked to go to Mazatlan (as we do every year) but this time we are going the first week in June. Not sure why we picked that week but it is what it is. We are staying at a new place, farther away from our normal haunt. It is much more secluded and it is not all-inclusive so we will be cooking for ourselves again this year. That actually helps me stay on track diet wise while there. We eat out for dinner and normally it is a pretty high caloric meal, so having control over my breakfast and lunch meals is a bonus.
And I want to be smoking hot by then. OK the reality is, I want to be at least 20 lbs less. 
Hopefully more….
So I’m picking up the pace (Oh how many times have you read this …) and getting in more exercise. I’ve been good and getting on the treadmill but I’ve got to get back into the strength training. I was thinking the other day I might start with the 30day Shred because it is only 20 minutes and I surely can find 20 minutes at home to get in the ST workout? Really … it’s only 20 minutes.
So my SCC goals for this week are:
- Get back eating 100% on plan
- Get in at least 5/7 30D shred sessions in
- Hot Yoga 1x
- Treadmill 5/7 days
Really folks, feel free to kick my butt if you see me slacking off again…. Rub it in my face how well you are doing and dare me to keep up
I hope you are all having FANTASTIC day!!

20 pounds is totally doable by June - it's really only about 6 lbs. a month or so and you can do that!
ReplyDeleteYes, I certainly can :)
DeleteHey :o)
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled onto your blog while trawling the net.
It doesn't matter how many times you say you are picking up the pace. As long as you bounce back, thats all that matters. And never, ever give up!
Slow and steady wins the race. One day at a time. One meal at a time. You'll get there :o)
