2 Free days, but back on track

Saturday and Sunday I did not take pictures, track my eating, or eat every few hours.  I’m not even sure what I ate now that I’m reflecting.  But Monday was a new day.

Part of my disregard for healthy eating and consciousness was that I got a letter from the U saying I was not considered for a spot in the Nutrition Masters program because I had unfinished pre-requisites.  Which on a normal year may not have been an issue, but due to the high number of qualified applicants, they only chose those people who were finished.  I was only upset because I really wanted to get started and for some reason speed through life.  But looking at the bigger picture, I really have no reason to be in a hurry.. I have nothing but time.  And my family (mostly TJ, who is 7) really isn’t ready for me to be in school that much.  So, I’ll slowly finish my current courses (two of them are independent study classes anyway), and try again next year.

But, yesterday, I was over it (I recover pretty quickly) and my eating was great!  I started with 45 minutes on the stairmaster, and met Eliece for lower body weights.

So sorry about the program…but time will pass anyway and as long as you’re taking the pre-req’s and moving forward, you’ll get there.
…I have never thought of the PB chocolate chip thing…I might have to indulge! I have been having a square of dark chocolate most nights to quell the cravings, I don’t think it’s that detrimental.

I am so sorry to hear that you did not get into the program. I think you have a very mature and positive outlook on it though…most people would not be so understanding. I like how you can see the silver lining. That chocolate chip and peanut butter picture looks SO GOOD.
