So, we've had the talk
Ok,
so the new boy and I have had 'the talk'....the hey, the past month has been fun and all acting like reckless teenagers but it's time to act our age. Since we met there has been a lot of early relationship romance with a lot of dinners out and wine and cheese and staying up all night which has been fine... I actually even managed to lose a pound but it can't go on forever. It's been high calorie not to mention hard on the wallet.
We are pretty much spending our entire weekends together at this point but it has just been out and out and out and up late rendering us both useless and exhausted on Mondays. So today we have made the decision to institute an appropriate adult bed time so that we can get up on the weekend mornings not tired and feeling like crap and have fun going and doing active things, we've decided to cook at home more and eat out less, consume more water and less wine and are on hold from consuming any cheese until further notice.
A mutual decision has been reached to eat and be healthier when in each others company THANK GOODNESS!!! I really didn't think I could take another weekend of it. Hey, I'm happy we've had a nice romantic beginning but I'm even happier that as we spend more time together reality is setting in and we are thinking in the longer term.... always a good sign! I'm so thankful that I met a man with healthy conscious tastebuds that is on the same page with me realizing that it's time to get back to reality!
My goal for today, map out my entire exercise plan and eating plan for the rest of the week. Lots of good nutrients and veggies and lean protein and no cheese. I've also gone ahead and canceled my Wednesday night post work drink plans and am considering skipping an event on Thursday with the hopes of just having a normal week and trying to get my body back in the right mode. My body is definitely feeling the aftermath of everything!
