So I finished my 3 Day Refresh and honestly felt refreshed. Slightly cheesy? Perhaps, but true nonetheless. And I truly followed it to a T. Not easy or fun. But I was down 6.2 lbs and 4 inches afterward so that's a huge plus! I decided to continue with the Shakeology and ordered it for monthly home delivery. It's really good and will help with my sweet cravings for sure. I plan to have it every morning for breakfast. I also started my Piyo workouts. Mmmm...maybe I should rephrase that. I planned to start them yesterday but my DVD player in the basement decided to crap out on me. Apparently it didn't really want to work out either. So I had to go buy a new one yesterday afternoon. And this morning's "workout" was me going through the introductory DVD learning all of the moves. Which was a tough in itself but probably not good enough to be considered a workout by a professional. Anyways, I worked up a slight sweat and my legs were shaking by the time I finished it so I'm counting it.
It's October (obviously) and I bought Halloween candy. It was on sale this past weekend and I thought to myself, "Oh! That's a great price and since we will need to have it anyways I may as well buy it while on sale!". Right?? Sounds logical to me. Horrible idea. The hubs and I broke into it that evening as soon as the kids went to bed. Shoot. And now it's just sitting in the cabinet, hidden away from the children, calling out to me constantly. You know, some people say you should buy the kinds that you don't like so you aren't tempted to eat it. Yeah, lovely thought in theory but I really just like sugar. I'm not too terribly picky about it. And I want to have good candy so the neighbor kids like me. Is that so wrong? I don't want to be walking up to the bus stop one of these days to overhear some little kid telling everyone that I'm "that lady who gave out that nasty black licorice for Halloween". Because that's probably about the only candy gross enough that I wouldn't dare eat. Or Cow Tails. Those are just weird. I mean, the white cream-stuff in the middle...what is that even? And why is the outside covered with tasteless white powder?? Or banana runts. Yuck. But really, who gives that stuff out anyways? It's not going to be me. My daughter would be so embarrassed.
If that 3 Day Refresh weren't so pricey, I'd consider doing it more frequently. I just can't do it though. I ordered myself the 21 Day Fix to try out. It offers a little more leniency but still strict portion control. That is exactly what I need. I'm hoping that will show up sometime this week so that I can start this weekend. After my daughter's birthday party. Because if I'm making two different kinds of cake pops, you can bet I'm going to eat at least one.
