    Day 86

    Happy May, everyone!

    I honestly can’t believe it’s been another month. April really flew right by, didn’t it? I have no idea if I’ve lost any weight - tomorrow is my weigh in - but I’m pretty sure because of my horrible day on Sunday, I haven’t. However, I did get in a fair amount of my April goals accomplished (begin editing my novel, get my spec ready, eat breakfast every day, gym 3-4 times a week, etc). In fact, the goal I actually messed up the most was in my clean eating. I blame going back on BC for messing with my hormones and cravings, but I’m hoping that the month of May will be much better.

    May goals:
    - Continue eating breakfast every day
    - Continue drinking 8 cups of water a day
    - Continue going to the gym 3-4 x a week
    - Take a yoga class
    - Plan all meals on Sunday night/go grocery shopping weekly
    - Eliminate white flour/sugar —> bake healthy alternative treats
    - Find a new job
    - Go on a date

    Yes, that last one has been on my monthly goal list since February, and I have yet to try it out. But slow and steady wins the race. I have a lot of other things on my plate that I really need to deal with before I can think about getting involved with anyone else, however, I know that it would be a really good thing for me to go out. We’ll see how that goes.

    What are your May goals?

  2.   My dinner tonight. Except mine has whole wheat noodles. Cold, you better disappear by tomorrow. But while soup cooks…yoga first.

  5.   My one April goal I have yet to start is yoga. I know how good it will be for my mind and body to do it, and I’m not really sure why I haven’t made the time for it. Weekly goal - go to yoga by Sunday.

  6.   I’m going to actually try and make it to yoga tonight. For real, haha. I know I’ve been saying that for *looks at calendar* TWO months now, but I’m serious, y’all! Don’t let me wimp out after work. It’s happening.

  7.   I always WANT to love child’s pose. But it really annoys me that no matter what, my ass will never touch my heels. Apparently it’s a joint thing.

  9.   When I reach my goals, I hope there’s someone pretty awesome in my life who will be able to appreciate this sort of flexibility. Yeah. I mean that in the dirtiest way possible.

  10.   I haven’t done yoga since high school, but I’m hoping it takes me to a better mental place. And on the way, help me get into better shape.

  11.   I know I’ll have reached my physical peak when I’m able to maintain a position like this. Holy shit.
