Saturday ... So much better!

Eddie was a pain in the ass last night he kept waking for a drink and then begging to get on the bed... He woke me loads. The alarm went off at 5:15, I didn't wanna get up... #shattered!
Forced myself up at around 5:30 ... Sorted dogs , matts brekkie and saw him off.
I dragged myself to gym and did a steady workout... Back & biceps and then around 20 mins spinning. I took it really steady and didnt spin above half a turn tension.
Showered and attempted to clean shower room... But I realised plughe was blocked so I postponed and tanned instead!
Few chores done, dried hair and now brekkie before I start chore-ing again!!

So the day took an unexpected turn... We headed to a couple of garden centres to find a brace bar for the fish tank. As we called to drop some shopping in for t & s we spotted someone had put a sofa outside their house and we have been looking for one for the garage... So I did the cheeky thing and knocked on the door... She couldn't wait for me to take it. We forced £10 on her even though she didnt want it, but then we had to get it home, we ended up driving to Kevs to get the work van. A few hours on and we now have a sofa in the garage!! Anyway lack of food has left us starving and craving a feast.... Oh yes Masala Lounge we will be calling on you soon!!!

Poorly Friday

So I took the day off sick today to try to get some R & R and get rid of this cold!

Snuggled with the dogs on the sofa and watched my favourite shows... Biggest Loser USA & Geordie Shore.

Made sure house was tidy for DH getting home and now am in bath... Pork tacos are cooking...

Blogger is back

I have been finding it hard to spare time to blog here. But this also means I haven't been prioritising it either.

Don't get me wrong there is a lot of stuff going on, but I can access this from 3 main places... Home, work and IFONE!! So I need to spend a couple of minutes each day logging so I can see my successes and I can see my failures!! Working on myself is a priority... I don't wanna keep coasting like this... life is passing quickly and I am constantly kicking myself for what i should've, could've or would've done.

Time has come to take a step back and think about it before I take action.

I am not trying to be the best me I can be... from now on I AM THE BEST ME I CAN BE

January... You will be tough... but I will be tougher!!

So because Jan started on a Tuesday and it was tough getting back into work after the Christmas break I decided to start all of my fitness goals on Sat 5th.

I let myself down..

Where did I go wrong?
Sat:
Back & Biceps workout.... I didn't feel right. I didn't feel inspiring, I felt like I wasn't doing the right thing. I took my weights a bit lighter because of the few months off....
Meal 2 - I was making DH the unhealthy version of this so I tried to make it a bit better...we ended up needing something quick to prepare - I was going to have EW Omelette, but no time
On the Golfcourse - I hadn't prep'd any healthy snacks so ended up buying what I could at the golfclub.
Starving when we got home (due to lack of healthy snacks!) ended up binging on sweet stuff
Sun:
I did intend to hit the gym, but didn't do it as soon as I got up... this was my first mistake as life always gets in the way later in the day!
Meal 2 - I shouldn't have given in to the Panetone...
Meal 3 - Really... what was I thinking?? Oh well all Panetone is now gone!!
While watching films I just carried on the binge!

Needless to say I have struggled to get up this morning, I feel sluggish and fed up about it. I am immediatly hitting the pattern that I have been in for the last year-ish. I don't think ahead about the consequences or the benefits I just do what I do and think I will deal with it tomorrow, later whenever.

This is not a good pattern to be in, but I seem to be in it in lots of areas of life - a definite procrastination cycle... I need to get passed this and push through...

I don't want to be the person who weekends like this!
