Finding Radiance

We have had snow finally!  The first real snow of the year.  It actually is melting pretty quick and was easy to shovel.  A nice bit of cardio and strength workout doing that today. I made up a warm and toasty breakfast of the 1-minute waffle. Yesterday was not a great eating day for me. [...]

Had a good night’s sleep last night, which felt very good!  I made myself a protein drink and headed out to the gym: Bottom’s up! I rode the stationary for 15 minutes, then did a longer lifting routine today: Chin ups.  From a box, so really 1/2 chins:  1 set of 4, 2 sets of [...]

Midweek (my Thursday   )  Snack last night did not seem to help me get or stay asleep.  I actually was tired when I went to bed a little early and thought I would fall asleep easily, but then my eyes popped open and I was pretty restless.  Got up early to hit the gym.  [...]

Despite a lot of stress today (could I have received any more phone calls???), I did not go off plan. Food was good, and I got in a good amount of protein. I did my strength training, albeit much later than usual due to the phone, and also walked to the post office and back [...]

Got a call from my tenants today that water was pouring through the ceiling. Just what I need! Had them shut the water off in the basement. Called a plumber and got over there in 1/2 an hour. I had the forethought to grab a small handful of nuts, so that I wouldn’t be too [...]

I really want to eat today. Under a lot of real estate stress right now. I had some brownies yesterday, so I really want to be in control today. But, it is hard. There isn’t really junk in the house, but any true binger knows that you can find anything to eat if you really [...]
