That explains how the last 3 days have gone. Friday I was a super-star! I ate healthy, I was faced with serious temptation in the form of a tex-mex potluck at school. I ate the healthy food I brought. When I was finished, instead of staying in the room with all the food, I decided to go for a walk. I walked at a very brisk pace for 20 minutes. Hubby was awesome and cooked me a very healthy meal. Since my back was still pretty painful, I decided to take a muscle relaxer, wrong answer.
Saturday morning hit and I was loopy and exhausted, thanks to the cyclobenzeprine I'd taken the night before. I was so tired and hungry, but nothing seemed to feed the beast. It was like I had fallen back to where I was before. I tried making healthier choices, but I just couldn't stop that beast. I didn't get a workout in like I wanted to, I actually dozed on the couch for 2 hours while my son played nicely and my daughter was asleep, hallelujah!!!!!!
Sunday, I've been an almost superstar. I ate breakfast, drank most of my water. Snacked at lunch, saving the points for the awesome cheeseburger dinner that I had been craving. I finished dinner with 6 points left for the day, which I splurged and had a glass of wine and some potato chips.
My back is still hurting, but I am going to try to get a workout in tomorrow. I did make an effort to get more physically active today. When I was at Salem Hospital for a class I was teaching, I parked in the farthest corner of the parking garage and made myself walk the entire distance to the basement classroom. No muscle relaxer for me, I don't like that feeling of being loopy for almost 48 hours.
So, I am signing off for tonight. Going to go cuddle with my hubby.
