Day 24

Happy Friday! I could not be more excited that the weekend has finally arrived. This week has kicked my butt! Hormones most definitely got the best of me, and it was a struggle to stay on track. I had intense cravings for chocolate and I was ravenous! Luckily, I didn't go too overboard however, I certainly could have done better. Two out of the last 3 nights I made mug cakes topped with cashew butter, to satisfy my craving. No, this is not terrible, but it certainly increased my carb intake.

Today, I did not eat well. I had my usual breakfast and then headed to clinic for a day of shadowing another NP. I packed some turkey-sweet potato hash, which I ended up having for lunch. I had a scoop of almond butter for snack and then didn't have time to eat again til I finally got home at 6. I was so hungry by that point that I ate leftover meatloaf and zucchini. My vegetable intake for the day has been pitiful, which is completely unlike me. I did stay under my 100g of carbs, but I would have liked more veggies.

I planned on going to CrossFit today but the unexpected snow this morning made for a slow start. I packed clothes so that I could catch the 5:30 class, but traffic was horrific, so I missed that as well. I also can't go tomorrow because I have to work. I sound like such a downer right now, but I was really hoping to go 5 times this week!

Oh well, tomorrow is a new day and I'm looking forward to a fresh start! Now time to snuggle with Chad and the pups, and focus on getting some good quality sleep.
