My weekend off
So this weekend I decided that I needed a break because I was feeling burnt out from all of the school, work, and working out. The time constraints have been getting to me. I love structure, but at the same time I felt like I couldn’t enjoy things because I had to look at if I could do it between certain times. I’m still doing that this weekend, but to a lesser extreme. My fiance was out of town, so I was able to relax and have everything to myself. I forgot how amazing it was to have the bed all to yourself! I am happy to have him come back home, but having him gone this weekend helped me out.
Friday: I did work out, so I didn’t do too bad. I got to enjoy this day without school and went shopping for pork so I can make it in the slow cooker today. So excited!!! I ate really clean the whole day, kept it low on the fats and carbs. But that was all for my cheat meal. I went out to dinner to an Irish pub with my best friend who I haven’t seen in months due to work and school. My meal was amazing, she kind of ruined it with all of her bitching about how what she ordered wasn’t what she wanted. And even with all the efforts the waiter was making, it wasn’t good enough. I tried to brush that off, but damn, that really put a damper on my cheat meal. It was totally worth it in the end. Eating about two desserts total. Three if you count splitting a dessert between me and her. A perfect cheat meal, shrimp cocktail, house salad, Guiness beef in a puff pastry pie, apple cobbler with ice cream, bread pudding, and cherry, peanut butter, and cookies and cream gelato. Amazing! I felt like puking the whole walk back to the car, but it felt so good to not think about calories, though I think I did keep it in the fat and carbs limit. I might have gone a little overboard on the calories. But it’s a cheat, so who cares?
Saturday: Didn’t work out. 
I went shopping at a fish market, bought what the man tried to tell me was tuna (I know it isn’t), scallops, and alligator meat!!! Again, I kept it clean the whole day. That was until I was making a fruit salad for today to surprise my fiance in a good way. 
I couldn’t help eat half the mango. But again, still in my macros.
Sunday: Don’t plan on working out. Need to get all of my homework done before picking up my fiance at the airport and going to work. No sex before I go to work. His flight gets in an hour before I have to start work. But thats what the nights and fruit salad are for. 
Eating clean today, so the carbs of the fruit won’t interfere with my diet.

Geez girl, you can really put away the food!
Ya, the games were a blast, need to get ready for April 28th…Clan wars up in Spokane!!! 500+ people, ten clans of 50, we already have our clan set up, it’s gonna be awsome!! Just remember to focus on the positive points of your work out, the enforphin rush, the great feeling, how good you look. Those will help you maintain forward momentum. Focus on the negitive only a little, just enough to offer a little constructive criticism (sp?), this will give you direction, but to much…and like you said, it will get you down, I’ve been there. That’s the only reason I felt I could offer you these words. Stay righteouse!! Later kenne.
