This was a weird week. Honestly, I don’t even remember what we did last weekend at this point. The week started off rough and it didn’t let up. Yesterday was better, but today couldn’t come fast enough.
It has been a pretty hectic few weeks, good weeks, but hectic. This week was just rough and things were out of balance. I overslept on Monday and missed my OTF workout and then didn’t get another workout in until this morning. Weight Watchers wise, I tracked as best I could but I didn’t prepare for the work week at all, I ate out a few times, and I struggled to get enough to eat some days due to schedule/stress.
Looking back, I did as best I could given the week and am proud of myself. I know I need to create a new balance as this might be the new norm for a few months. I need to use the weekend to prep for the work week, need to make my sleep and workouts a priority, and need to make sure I’m eating enough food. I am proud of myself this week and am working hard to remain positive in all things.
Diet
Most mornings I had a healthy breakfast at home and then I had leftovers for lunch. My week was quite pasta heavy, enjoying an orzo salad at the beginning of the week and tortellini at the end of the week. I ate our for lunch on Wednesday and also ate out twice last weekend.

Exercise
I was really inactive this week. I was at my desk a lot, both at work and at home. My Fitbit also died this week, so until my replacement comes in, I haven’t been tracking my steps. I got a great workout in today though and know I did the best I could given my schedule this past week.

Monday – Missed workout
Tuesday – Rest

Self Care
I’m so glad I took the time to get a massage this week! It was such a treat and it was a great way to start the work week. I am definitely thinking about signing up for a membership through Massage Envy, but I’m just not sure I can justify the splurge. We’ll see.
Weigh-In
I was so happy when I got on the scale this morning. I weighed myself a gazillion times because I was so surprised by the outcome. It just didn’t feel like a great week because I wasn’t able to workout and I wasn’t overly focused on what I was eating. I am really happy to be so close to the 230’s.
