I can't say that today was either great or not great. I did have a good day for the most part, but my emotions seemed to get the better of me tonight. It was a much cooler day, and I was able to get a lot done around the house -- the kids' rooms are ready for them to come home tomorrow. I'm ready for them to come home tomorrow too! It will be so good to see them! Tonight, however, I just couldn't seem to handle some of the stresses in my life. It manifested itself mostly in frustration directed towards my husband. Not really anger, and there were no tears, just calm (for the most part) expressions of frustration. Certainly not edifying for him. I can't say I feel very good about it either. I'm on Day 16 of my cycle. This time last month, I was spotting. So far, there is no sign that my period is imminent.
I moved to the couch in the night because the dog was driving me crazy, and Steve snoozed the alarm so many times this morning that we missed the Y. Again. Not good. My eating was okay today, though. Two shakes, a bran bar, a bit of Steve's cookie and two squares of pizza. Not very balanced, but about 975 calories (I don't have my iPhone here with the exact count). I feel like my pants are a bit looser, but I went shopping with my sister-in-law today, and let's just say that the discrepancy in the size of clothing we were trying on (she was much smaller) was certainly a reminder that there is a long way to go.
I have a hugely busy day tomorrow with picking up the kids and all the driving that entails. I really need to get a good sleep tonight. I am having lunch with a friend, and need to be disciplined in my menu choices!! I will cook a few hard-boiled eggs and take them with me so that I'm not tempted to indulge at Wendy's or wherever the kids want to stop for a snack.
I started my new multi-vitamin today from Shaklee. I don't feel any different, but I think that's a good thing!!
