TGIF before the long weekend..

The weekend is near and I do have plans. My plans are to stay on my eating plan and add some exercise.  

Today is a good day so far.  I am drinking my coffee.. went to get botox (yea it is pricy and it hurts like ***** but I did not have a face lift and the age, the extra skin after losing weight - made my wrinkles deep and make me look and feel more tired.  I will save the money for that somewhere else.. )

My face is swollen now, and feels funny.  my eats today: 

I woke up with heartburn this morning and coffee did not help - so I used apple cider vinegar in warm water (that really works).  It worked but at the same time the acid hitting the inside of my guts really gave me bad cramps.. ugh.. 

eats today:

coffee + miralax + more coffee

protein shake  (maybe)

veggies and meat casserole. (1 cup) 

green tea, lemon water

egg bites or hard boiled eggs and pickles, 1/2 avocado.

dinner is out and I am not sure what I would pick.. maybe fish and veggies.. 

LNS" fudge and nuts..

Tonight we are going to dinner and comedy show.  It would be fun.  

Tomorrow I have to take my little cat to the vet.  ugh.. I hate that - they don't know that we are trying to help them.. . At least she does not hold the grudge.  She is rather small cat and Indoor/outdoor so she needs a lot of shots. Last year we split that in 2 visits and she did much better.  When she gets all the shots in one visit - she gets rather sick.  I guess too much vaccine can do that.  Hope this time it will work.  

Then we plan to go to see chiropractor, then drive 1 hr to see my BF nephew birthday,  then we may stop and get a bite to eat, home and relax. we may try to go for a hike on Sunday... and just chill.. Monday - not sure.. but yard needs attention..  and I need to do some baking - cooking.. 

Good morning BOTTs.

Oh how I love BOTOX!!!!!!!!   I did it three times over the course of 2 years....loved the results!!!  Unfortunately my bank account doesn't love it so much these days.  So...I will celebrate yours!!!!

I hope the kitty fares well from her shots.  Sick cat = that repetitive vomit sound that makes me jump up from a dead sleep quicker than a gunshot!

I really need to clean up my food....I've not been eating clean and I feel it!!!  My body feels icky, bloated, sluggish, etc.  Oh...and the little dial on the scale is the tell all...I'm up about 3 pounds.  Amazing what I let stress do to me. 

I hate when I let myself get into destructive ruts.  It was super hot last week so I didn't go for my walks and BAM!  Just like that...I got out of the routine.  The weather's been perfect this week yet I haven't gone on one walk.  Didn't have yoga this past monday so I missed out on that "mental healing" as well.  My blood must be thicker than chocolate syrup because I have NOT been drinking near enough water.  Hmmmmm....what else?  OH...the peppermint patty addiction...was eating 1 or 2 EACH DAY...and no...not the small ones.  I've been good about taking my meds and my vits but I have not swallowed a single calcium pill in over a week. 

Goal for this weekend....clean eating, protein first, and lots of water.  I think I will even forego the flavor enhancers because I need to feel purity...even if it's partially in my head.

Have a lovely weekend, friends.

Be good to yourselves.
