Lately, I have just needed to disconnect and decompress. I feel like all I have been doing for the last week is working out and going to work. Today, I had an official breakdown. So much so that I was told by not only Kevin, but also my mom, “You are not allowed to leave the couch this whole afternoon.” Kevin told me that I better still be there when he got home. I know they are right, I could feel myself getting out of control. Here is the thing about me…in order for me to be successful at something (or at least how I feel successful) I have to become a little bit obsessed with it. When I feel things slipping out of control I need something to control. I think that is why I have been working out so hard this week. It is something that I am working on, but it is good that I am able to notice the feelings of anxiety and unraveling before it gets to bad. I am a big believer in being kind to ones self, and this week I have not been treating myself with the same kindness. I will try harder to be ok with the things that I can not control, I do not have to be in control of everything. That is hard to be all right with:)
This week I have been eating a lot of meals that I had frozen in the freezer, but I have had a bit of this and that.
I used this tuna:
I made this wrap along with some soup and a few bits of roasted cauliflower:
We had a potluck last night at work and I made this apple-crisp for a my friend’s birthday.
I did go to WW weigh in this morning and I was down 1lb. I felt like that was the hardest pound that I ever lost. Geesh. This week was rough. Kevin and I are going out for dinner to relax, I think we are going for Indian. Then even though it is my day off I have to go into work to take care of some things. Oh well, if I do it tonight then I don’t have to worry about it tomorrow and can relax the whole day!
Hope you enjoy your Friday!
