Work has been stressful the last few days. Yesterday I had my lunch prepped and snacks so I did okay with nutrition until I came home and ate a pint of ice cream. Today I tossed some stuff in my lunch bag but it wasn’t anything I was super excited about. I ordered out with the team…and then had a bag of cookies from the vending machine. In hindsight I realize I was eating to make myself feel better about being stressed. It did t help me not feel stressed or do anything at all about the stress. All I have is regret. Maintenance is so hard. It’s not talked about a lot. And there are no milestones to celebrate it seems. It’s easy to lose focus on why I should be making healthy food choices. I plan to put some chicken in the oven tomorrow morning to bake while I walk. I will pack a lunch and snacks tomorrow and make better choices.

A hard one Never have ice cream again or Never have coffee again?? 😳 The evilness of this question!!

I felt like I had Ashlynn in my living room with me when I put today’s Thrive30 on the tv! If I haven’t done days 2 and 3 thrive30 workouts yet, can I rearrange them to other days? Or do I just go back to those days in the app to follow along?

I almost didn’t get my cardio in today. I decided to do my Thrive first thing in the AM knowing I didn’t have time for both. I finally got my bootay to the gym at 7PM tonight to get my run in (it was freezing outside). I hate night time workouts and honesty the treadmill in itself is torture to me, BUT I really am trying to set myself up to make 45 min a day NON-NEGOTIABLE even if it’s walking. And more importantly it feels good to keep those promises to myself. I’ve managed to check all my boxes these last 2 days EXCEPT for my water! Several ounces off each day, but I’m working up to it!
