Day 1…167 days to get in shape!
Today I started my new workout and eating plan! Given that I had the day off from work I thought it might be a good day to start and ease myself into this new lifestyle.
I started the day off by…sleeping in…HAHA! Not too bad. My usual routine during the work week is a wake up call around 7am…so I pulled myself out of bed around 8:30! A late day for me but some might still call that pretty early. I am a slow waker and am not completely energized immediately upon getting out of bed, so I like to ease into my day by doing a coffee run, on my days off :), but during the week I make a pot of black coffee :) My drink of choice is an Iced Americano with 3 shots and a splash of cream! Milk products upset my stomach so I stay away from anything with milk in it. The cream however isn’t too bad…actually really yummy!!! Thats why it is a TREAT on my days off ONLY!!!
I am an obsessive list maker and planner…just confer with my husband…haha! He loves setting his schedule on his computer/ipad, but I love my written planner and it is attached to my hip and never out of my sight! It literally has my life in it. I start my day with coffee and going over my schedule/making my to do list for the day! Given that today is my day off from work I have lots of errands to run and things to do to get ready for the work week ahead! Stuff like…finishing the laundry, doing a costco run, getting my workouts in, and prepping my meals for the week! Pretty basic stuff!
I was quite surprised when I woke up however. Through the night it had snowed almost 5 inches. So I threw on some warm clothes and got a decent workout in by shoveling the walk and driveway. I also played with the puppy for quite awhile in the backyard. I was pooped by the end and then looked over to see that while I was finishing up it had proceeded to snow another three inches over everything I had just shoveled. HAHA. Thats the way of it sometimes. So I thought of it as a little bonus exercise and went back over everything again. My husband was cracking up watching me try to shovel everything. I am not the most coordinated of people but the job got done which is all you can ask for.
Have a beautiful day,
