"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I
don't want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my
life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts
and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing loud in the car
with the windows open and wear pink shoes and stay up all night
laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want
to sleep hard on clean white sheets and throw parties and eat ripe
tomatoes and read books so good they make me jump up and down, and
I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad He gave life to
someone who loves the gift." --Shauna Neiquist

Week #2: A Review

The Good: Ummmm...well, I ate well every day. And I lost 2.2lbs!!

The Bad: Only logged FOUR workouts this week. I got some kind of food poisoning or sulfite reaction or something from a salad I ordered Thursday night. I was knocked for a terrible loop that lasted through the weekend: stomach cramps, nausea, upset stomach...ick. That salad was so totally NOT worth it, too. Meh. I still didn't get enough sleep, and my whole routine was pretty out of balance this week.

I'm pleased with my weight loss, to be sure, but I need to be finding more balance in my life overall. This upcoming week will be more difficult in terms of HOW MUCH I eat, due to hormones making me feel hungrier. I aim to strike a balance between listening to my body and still maintaining a good caloric deficit. My goal is to drop another 2lbs this week. *fingers crossed*

Sorry this post is so short!
