Welp.

Well, I'm sick. I can't even believe I'm in the office, infecting the keyboard and the phones, spreading my germs. Muahahaha.. I feel like an evil villain. A lazy, disoriented fuzzy villain. I want to go home. The office is dead and I'm just staring blankly at our work E-mail waiting for an important message. HOPING it comes before noon.

I would rather not medicate myself with over the counter drugs but I'm in need badly to feel better. It's Christine's bridal shower this weekend. Two actually - one on Saturday and another on Sunday and since I'm involved in the wedding party I should attend both (and I want to). Want to know the best part of being sick? You barely have an appetite. Yes! So that means I'm not even tempted by those finger foods and cupcakes and whatever else I'll be seeing at those bridal showers. Then again, I'm hoping I'm not still sick because I don't enjoy feeling like a bag of dirt.

I can't even begin to tell you how FAR AWAY I AM IN ALL MY FITBIT CHALLENGES. Those caps were necessary. I made goals and there's no way I can reach those goals until I feel better. I don't even want to look at my body. When I don't work out I feel absolutely disgusting. I've already touched base on this feeling in another post and I don't want to re-live that sadness.

It's 11:35 am and so far today I've had 1/2 my protein shake and 25 oz of water. I'm kind of getting hungry but I don't know what I feel like just yet. Maybe I'll finish half of a protein bar I started on last week. Lol. Hopefully it's still edible. I didn't even put it in a bag so it might be hard as a rock!

I think when I get home I'm going to take a nap and then watch a ton of chick flicks. I don't think I'll be exercising today considering it's cold as f*ck outside and I don't want to travel to the gym. Who knows though - maybe I'll have some energy this afternoon and able to do some cardio with Just Dance (on the wiiU). 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 ...
