So...no more vacations anytime soon for me. This weekend did not go as planned and I did not do well.
Got a late start Friday morning, so did not get into Osgood until about 8pm local time. Wanted to go take a walk because the temperature was gorgeous (71 effing degrees!!!) but the girls were tired and fussy from the drive and it was getting dark (no shoulder on the road) so didn't get it done.
Saturday morning Mom and I took the girls out to the track of the local high school, but only got two laps (1/2 a mile) done before Aubrey was fussing and wanted to be carried--so we took her over to the play area and she ran around for a while. I followed her in the quicksand-like rock gravel, so got a bit of a workout that way, but it was definitely not what I had in mind and not nearly close to what I'd hoped to get done. That night the family went out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant and I ordered a soda...not my finest moment, but I'd been drinking water all day and didn't want any more. Ate way too much (should have stopped when I was full) and felt awful later that night.
Sunday was the family reunion. Family reunion = lots of homemade food, slathered in butter, heavy salad dressing and sugar. Tried to be careful about what I ate, but didn't have a whole lot of options and ended up eating too much dessert (because there were 16 million of them and they all looked delectable). Didn't really eat dinner that night, just munched on leftovers, most of which consisted of my aunt's "extra-rich, double dark chocolate cake." Didn't get a workout in either.
Got up way early this morning to come home, bought a soda right off the bat telling myself I would need the caffeine to stay awake. We stopped at McDonald's for lunch, where I bought another soda because it was cheap. No real healthy food today, just munching on whatever was in the car so we didn't have to stop.
All in all, not a very successful weekend. I feel horrible. My stomach is all upset from the soda and sugar and I feel exhausted because I haven't worked my muscles that for the past three weeks have been used to a daily workout.
Very disappointed in myself and more than ready to get back on the wagon. Definitely don't like feeling like this, physically or mentally. Headed to the pool tonight with the family, planning on being in it for a while. Not sure what tomorrow will bring--Chaz has a new work schedule, so I'm going to have to adjust my gym schedule. We'll see what happens.
Weighing in tomorrow and dreading it. But I'll take what it gives me and use it as motivation to not let something like this weekend happen again. It's totally not worth it.
Until next time....
