Friday – I didn’t work for the first day all week =) It was definitely a nice reprieve. I did go to the movies with a friend, had some chocolate and diet soda… but no popcorn! I also went and got my learner’s permit! I was really worried to get it – and it was over so fast. Next stop – license.
As for food and exercise… Food – not too bad. I did eat some fries with lunch, because I was celebrating my permit. I had a veggie burger and water with them though, so I feel like it evened out.
Exercise – In short, I didn’t. I finally had a day to map out my degree, do a little retail therapy (dollar tree IS in my budget), and getting my learner’s permit was a big deal.
I have gotten into a pattern of working out 5 times a week, so that I can have weekends off. Since I didn’t work out Friday, I will use a weekend day. By this standard, my week goes from Monday – Sunday (which is easier since I work during the week).
Saturday – I ate well, and skipped my workout. I cleaned all day though! And boy, I BET I burned some serious calories. I’m talking organizing, dusting, sweeping, and scrubbing the kitchen. Cleaning two bathrooms. Doing laundry. Vacuuming & organizing the living room. Cleaning my room. I know I burned enough calories for a work out – I was sweating all day & my body hurts!
Tomorrow, the plan is mental and physical fitness. Also known as… doing homework & hanging with Billy Blanks ;-) I am babysitting and signing my first lease tomorrow too! Monday I start a new job, and I have to get up at 7am… so my new sleep schedule is starting tonight too!
Thanks for reading, until tomorrow!

"I did eat some fries with lunch, because I was celebrating my permit." You have been doing so good, why "reward" yourself with french fries? That's NOT a reward. When you eat chocolate, I hope it's dark chocolate and a high content of cocoa. I eat one little square a day.
ReplyDeleteNext time you get on a cleaning binge, you can come here! You certainly burned a lot of calories doing all that. I'm happy to see that even if you don't "workout", you are active and not sendentary. Keep up the good work. I hope you enjoy your new job tomorrow.
Love, Aunt Sharon
Congratulations again on the permit! I bet the person who drove you there is really cool! :3
ReplyDeleteAnd, oh man, isn't cleaning great? When you're done, you're left with such a great feeling - and everything looks beautiful too!
