Today was a pretty good ending to one of the most stressful weeks I've had in a long time. It began Monday with Randall, my husband having shoulder surgery. I've had surgery before and that's way easier than waiting for someone in surgery. The waiting was so hard. I'm a stress eater and it was hard not to eat everything around me. But I stood strong and did not give in to the vending machines of chips, cookies, and candy. I am so thankful for my mother in law coming into town to help with the recovery. I was able to keep working out this week and that saved me. It helped so much with the stress and not getting too worked up.
I was doing pretty good until today's weigh in. I was so stressed that I gained this week and all that stress caused a crazy rant as I got up to weigh. I said things like murder and hating being a girl. What was I thinking?! Anyway, I think I really scared my weigh n pray friends, so now I'll be know as the crazy rant girl. hahaha Oh well, to my surprise, I lost 1.6 lbs. For this week, I will take it. I would have taken anything but gaining.
I am so glad this week is almost over and tomorrow begins a new week. With a new week, I have new opportunities to work hard, eat well, and try not stress out too much. So here's to a new week. I hope it's a good one!!!
