Not every day is sunshine and roses. Some days are just sunshine. Some days are partly sunny. Some days you don't want to get out of bed to find out. Yesterday was Day 5 of my Beach Body Challenge, and for the most part, it's been going quite well. There are a few things to consider however, when determining how well things are going. On Thursday, Puese didn't want to stick to our healthy eating plan. He didn't want to help me cook when he got home from work. My Thursday was rather productive, but when he started acting like a stink, my mood dropped considerably. But he got over it, we made dinner, and both our moods improved. Yesterday, I was feeling good. I though it was going to be a sunshine and roses day. I got up, went to the dentist, (it was a wonderful experience) then came home, had lunch and exercised. I also felt splendiforous enough at the time to record my exploits for the day. All 3 classes I did. Then the day started getting cloudy. All signs of roses had vanished at least. My computer hadn't recorded any sound, and it was getting increasingly loud the more I tried to focus on syncing up the sound on those clips that did have sound. Which, if you're trying to listen for a matching audio visual que, it's not good to have lots of noise around. But I eventually got it all pieced together, re-recorded what needed audio, and exported it. Then I talked to my mom on the phone for a long time. There was lots and lots said. And I was exhausted by the end of it. Because I was talking to her, I missed my snack, and so when we set out for the farmers market, I was downright hungry. It was already time to start making dinner when we got there. Since Puese and Axure aren't as strict on this Challenge as I am, they both help themselves to a tasty treat of shrimp cocktail. A very very spicy shrimp cocktail, no less. So I was tired, and hungry, and cranky, and there was nothing to be done about it. It was well into dinner time, and I wasn't going to want to help cook when I got home. I would have rather just gone to bed early. But that wouldn't have been allowed. So I rented an action movie, put on my pj's when I got home, sat on the couch, and waited for dinner to happen if it ever would. Puese and Axure put dinner together, and much too late in the evening I finally got to eat. It was very tasty, but it was too spicy, so I didn't enjoy it. The reason I don't diet, or eat spicy food, is because I like to enjoy my food. I am a foodie. But at that late hour, I was very glad that dinner had been made and I could eat. With dinner and the movie, my mood did improve. I set the last of my videos to upload and went to bed.
It was dark this morning so I slept in, which made me cranky, and I had a shake for breakfast, which had too many chunks in it, so that made me cranky, and then when I went to my computer, the internet had gone out in the night, so all uploads had failed, so that made me cranky. So instead of exercising, I had to finish my chunky shake and fix the youtubes. But then when that was done. I danced to my videos, and that makes me happy. But now I am blah. Puese just brought home deli sandwiches for us, which I appreciate, but it's smothered in things I'm not eating right now, and Axure turned the water off when I was about to go to take a shower. I'll probably feel better after eating something and taking a shower. I don't always have such severe mood swings, but I have the last coupla days. Maybe it's my body protesting the change in my health and fitness levels/routine.
