So I already knew before today started that it was going to be long, stressful, and exhausting, and it didn't disappoint :) We had a late night last night so I was working on 6.5 hours sleep, which is low for me. I shoot for 8 hours, and probably average 7 hours of sleep a night. Anything less than this usually impacts my day quite a bit, but today I was pretty upbeat and ready to take on the day. Here is what I ate:
Breakfast - 1 fried egg with 1/2 slice cheddar cheese
Morning Snack (actually like an early lunch) - 1 stuffed bell pepper with 2 tbsp. light sour cream...SO YUMMY!
Lunch - between 11:30 am & 5:30 pm I lived off of SEVEN chocolate chip cookies and water. I was knee deep in a big, time sensitive project and then work started smelling like fresh baked chocolate chip cookies. I am still in the "zone" and feeling positive about things, but I wasn't going to fight the aroma of the cookies during a time when eating anything else was no where in sight so I caved :) SEVEN times throughout the project (which isn't finished) and then another work meeting. Finally got home around 5:30 pm.
Dinner - Grilled cheese sandwich with cheddar on whole wheat bread dipped in low sodium tomato soup...comfort food that was exactly what I needed.
I have had to wear my wrist brace today after my wrist flared up last night. I'm pretty sure it is my fibromyalgia and that stress induced it. My knee joints and ribs are now sore by the end of the day so I felt it was better to rest tonight instead of working out. Plus, the weather is super humid, but still around 100 degrees so my scheduled outdoor workout probably isn't the best idea. The boys left to visit family so I could go to sleep early...so I'm off to do that...night night!
