Am I really committed to this thing?? This week feels more like a sampler than a solid committment. Not sure why, maybe I want to get rid of some of the bad food from my house first, I can't just throw it away, it feels wrong. But then again, today I found myself with a bagel in my hand for breakfast. Today is kind of a wash because I forgot my lunch at home and now I am left at the mercy of the corporate world cafeteria which is anything but healthy and nutritious. I will have to make the best choices possible and try to recover this evening.
Yesterday I was supposed to wake up early to exercise before work...that didn't happen. Ugh! That's okay, as Dr. Oz says, it is okay to make "U-turns"! He calls them u-turns, when you slip up in your eating habits, rather than getting down about it and giving up, just call it a u-turn and get right back on track. Well, this week I have had so many u-turns I am feeling quite dizzy!
Today is yucky...I am now at home and the bloating is back. Who has ever heard of such a sensitive digestive system as mine? It is hideous. I tried to eat good, but let's be honest there were some slip ups today. But I am supposed to not have wheat and EVERYTHING has wheat. It sucks. And I think it is part of the problem. I just did 50 minutes of hard core cardio with light weights and I feel this hugeness and bloatedness, it seriously is not fair. I guess that is why I have to try harder to not make the mistakes, even if they seem little at the time. The girl that did my check up at the blue cross blue shield check up said that she thought I should get my gallbladder out. She got hers out at 21 years old, and said if one of the stones slips and gets wedged in the track of my whatever, it could lead to a very painful trip to the E.R. I am just not convinced that is the way to go just yet. I think I can beat this thing. I at least have to try.
On the upside, I joined a new running group. The group at my work finished with the Detroit half marathon (no end of the season bar party?? what kind of lame-ass group was that??!) So now I am going to try the Stoney Creek running club here in the area and see what they have to offer, I am pretty sure they run together all year long. Maybe there will be some fun people and if it keeps me somewhat into running during this off season than it has done its job. This weekend I need to come up with at least a few different ideas to use as lunches and dinners that fit the guidelines, that will be my homework, to come up with a few new options each week to incorporate. This past week it was brussel sprouts and I must say, I enjoyed them!
