Today was one of those up and down days.
I woke up as I challenged myself to, and I worked out. I went to school and work, and then directly to my wife's Work Christmas Party. This is going to be a short blog because I just walked into the door, it's almost midnight, and this is the first time I've been home since 6am. I'm simply exhausted.
Tomorrow, I ring bells for Salvation Army from 11-1, and then have a student from 1:30-2:00, and then I have a concert to attend downtown at 7:30, it just never stops. I know I'll get some cardio in at the gym somewhere in the middle.
Here's my problem. I ate stellar today. I worked out. I did it all.
And then at dinner, I had a half piece of cheesecake and the equivalent of a can of beer.
I know, that's NOTHING. I worked it off in dancing at the party, probably.
But, I eat it because it's in front of me, and I sit back and wonder why. It wasn't that good, and I just ate it because I did. Nothing detrimental, and I'm not off the wagon by any stretch.. but it just doesn't sit good with me mentally, you know? I mean, how about.. instead of eating the cheesecake after working out, skip the cheesecake AND the workout, and break even?
I know that doesn't make sense, but it's one of my struggles.
Another one of my struggles is keeping my eyes open after an 18 hour day. I'm just beat.
Catch you tomorrow.

Sounds like you have been having some pretty hectic days my friend. Don't worry I am sure things will bring itself together soon.
Hey Tuck. Don't let it get you down. You're trying to make a lot of changes really fast, and you're accomplishing a lot of things. Keep on the positive side, because it's working - you're eating healthier, thinking healthier, living healthier. I'm no expert, and I know how you feel, because I eat because I enjoy food and I'm trying to beat cholesterol, but it takes work to change your lifestyle and your food preferences, and you're doing a great job at it.
