I cracked.

It's day 5 and I cracked.
I was thinking about drinking the moment the maintenance guy opened the window and I saw the sun shine and reflect off the window. It was peering in the room as I painted. The worst paint job ever by the way.

PSYCH.
I told myself I wasn't going to drink until my birthday and I plan to stick with that for as long as I can. I didn't drink. Instead I barely ate today - there was a lot going on and we went off site today to the new location. Time was flying so fast I didn't realize I didn't really eat. By the time the day was over and the Rogers tech left, it was 4:30 pm and Jack had picked me up.

I wasn't hangry not yet anyways but I knew I had to eat soon before I got hangry. We drove around aimlessly not knowing where to go. We both knew we wanted something somewhat healthy and we are both trying not to drink alcohol or beer. We passed a lot of sushi places until Jack said "we should have just stayed in our area and got sushi" and then the light bulb went on in my head too. Dang. DRIVE!!! We weren't terribly far from our house but we drove all the way back to get All You Can Eat sushi.. it was delicious.

Broccoli and sweet potato tempura, spring roll, spare beef ribs, beef tereyaki maki, gyoza, edamame just to name a few. I also had strawberry ice cream and a shot of tiramisu. I would have eaten more because I actually enjoy over eating and binge eating but Jack stopped me. Thank god too because I would have felt like ass right about now. I love that man. Anyways, I have to dedicate my next post to my favourite vegetable. Can anyone guess what it is? Stay tuned.

Sleeping.

I feel like I've always taken advantage of sleep. The power of sleep - not one of life's wonders. You get a good night sleep, you're able to function properly the next day. I never truly appreciated the act of sleep until last night. I'm in bed roughly by 9 pm maybe 9:30 pm and I'm a light sleeper. (perfect mom quality might I add) Jack on the other hand goes to bed around 10:30 pm or 11:00 pm. He admitted he has FOMO - F ear O f M issing O ut but in regards to TV / Facebook videos so he's up watching something so that's the reason why he doesn't go to bed at the same time as me. Well last night the Leaf game was on - and I can only assume that they lost because I didn't hear any screaming at the TV then again I didn't hear anger either and Jack's pretty loud when it comes to Leaf games (major hockey fan). I only heard around 11:19 pm that he was heading to bed. And then the loud breathing started. I can't really tell if it'...

Trying not to get too sick =(

Don't hate me but I did not log my food this week. Trust me, you don't even want to know. Just assume the worst. I told myself I wasn't going to go to the gym or eat healthy and guess what - it was a complete success! Now it's Monday and I am whole heartedly dedicated to getting back to my usual self. Except there's one problem: I'm catching a cold. With that being said, I am so thankful I had a day to meal prep before this sickness gets any worse. Last night I made my 98% shepherd's pie (thanks Kristina 😊 ) with Yves original ground round, julienne carrots and frozen mixed vegetables. Mashed potatoes I added greek yogurt, butter and a splash of almond milk (as seen in the picture below). Kristina, Christine and some green Strong bow.  A reminder to self. Even though I'm feeling a bit under the weather I'm still going to continue this healthy lifestyle and make the necessary changes to build a stronger me - inside and out...

Exhausted.

I am definitely feeling the after affects of eating crappy foods. Do you ever feel oddly tired? Especially since you're well rested and haven't over worked your body..? That's me right now. Although it's not odd at all. I noticed when I eat foods that have little to zero nutritional value my body reacts in a sluggish state. Over the weekend I indulged to a point where I just feel exhausted. I'm staring at the computer blogging and I can barely keep my eyes open . It's lunch time thank goodness so I could take a nap if I wanted to. However, that would be such a tease to my eyes and mental state. Today started off super frustrating as my co-worker did not show up. Generally Monday's are insanely busy. The office is closed on Fridays so we have messages from Thursday evening all the way up until Sunday night. The number of messages ranges between 20-40 and usually 30 (or so) fax messages. Returning those messages alone while having the phones ringing in ...
