Good Morning!!! It's that time again... MONDAY, MONDAY, MONDAY!!! (imagine that being said in that big moster truck rally announcer voice because that's totally how I said it in my head!)
Welcome to daylight savings... and NO complaining ladies. We get an extra hour of day light in the evening (which also could potentially mean an extra hour of working out time). I'm looking forward to being able to continue wearing my sunglasses at 9pm (aka SUMMER TIME!!!!).
The past week has been HORRIBLE for me plan wise. I just don't know why I can't go on vacation and behave myself. I guess somewhere in my head I think I owe it to myself... like "you've been doing good, your on vacay so do what you want." Well.... another pound up, making for a 2 lb gain over the past 2 weeks shows that I CAN'T DO THAT.
So, I'm not going to b*tch and moan too much. I did it to myself... it was a conscious decision to eat badly and guess what? I'm paying the piper.
Now, as you know I am going to ATL this weekend (wahoooooo) but I have already said (and please hold me accountable ladies!) that my ONLY cheat meal will be Sunday for lunch. The old crew is getting back together for lunch/drinks and that is the my ONE designated planned diversion. Luckily Holly eats pretty healthy and is a vegetarian so we'll be cooking meals while I'm staying with her so it won't be overly traumatic.
My weekend was good (other than horrible eating). Saturday I got to the beach and it was kind of cloudy and really really really windy and a little chilly.... it was just before sunset and the clouds were rolling in and it was sprinkling on and off. The sun finally came out behind some of the clouds and it looked so pretty. Then we looked back and you could see the rain rolling in behind and around us so we decided to walk BACK to the car (1 mile walk each way) and I looked up at the ocean... and there was A RAINBOW!!! It was really incredible. I got some pics and will upload them later. I felt like the universe smiled down and said "you're gonna be alright kid."
Sunday morning I went to my first Buddhist temple ceremony. It was quite an experience and just on a cultural (and not religious) level it was very interesting.
All in all a pretty good weekend.
Alright ladies, time to lock and load... get this week under way. Have a FANTASTIC Monday!!!!
