Day 42: If you fall OFF the wagon, Get back on!!!!

Hey yall!!!!!

Hope all is well your way!  Things are well this way although this weekend due to hanging with friends and valentine's dinner, I got somewhat (yup...it happens) off track!!! I know I know, hope you are not to disappointed!!!

So here is what happened...went to Hooter's Friday with friends, I did plan on having a cold beer since I wanted it and I deserved it lol!  It was a long week!!! But I had some of a friends fried pickles and we split an order of fries (these are my first fries ever since the first of January) but instead of getting wings I decided to get the steamed clams to help try to make some type of healthier choice so I didn't feel to bad about that.  I even got up Saturday morning and went to hot yoga!  I liked it and felt very refreshed after...I will probably try that again!  I also took three days off from INSANITY (eeeeeek I know) but I have done other exercise like zumba and some weight training and push ups and stuff but my knees have been hurting and people are saying because I did INSANITY without shoes!!! I know I should have known but it felt better on the carpet at home without shoes and didn't want to make to much noise for my downstairs neighbor.  Lesson learned though I will wear shoes when I start back up this week but I know my health comes first and my knees have kind of hurt more than an aching workout type feeling but hopefully I didn't mess them up hurt type feeling.  They are better but still hurt somewhat if I try to do a simple squat.  If you know what I should do about this please share!!! I don't want to stop my INSANITY program BUT I don't want to hurt myself either where it will have lasting effects.  I read it could also be from working out so hard, so often and so fast since that was not always in my regular workout regime!!!  So we will see but I am starting back up this week.

Also, another dinner I had I had shimp thai lettuce wraps, 5 cheese sticks (EEK...but so good) and some stuffed mushrooms.  Sooooo...yes I fell of the wagon a bit.  The other meals I had those days were healthy though so it wasn't like I made a whole entire day of bad choices but I want to stay on track.  I haven't felt like going to store since it was so cold but I am going to get over that and go tomorrow.  I have enough food for tomorrow to be healthy meals so that is good!  So I just wanted to let you know that I fell of but I AM BACK! You can fall off the wagon but get back on.  Don't let it be a continuous slip up each day! Oh yea, I had a margarita too on my v day meal.

So the lesson here today for myself and you all is that if you fall of your plan you have a choice to either keep messing up or get back on the wagon and get it right!  I choose to get back on the wagon, what do you choose to do????

Until next time...let me know if you gave yourself a challenge last week and completed it.  If not do it this week, whether it is to do an extra five or ten minutes of cardio or try a new recipe or even give up coffee or chocolate for a week.  LET ME KNOW!!!! I need some success stories and need to stay motivated!!!!! WE can do this yall!
