I was kind of in a hurry to get this done because we had to help my in-laws move into a new house. So I got to do some extra lifting! It was kinda fun to help with the heavy stuff with the "guys". Its funny how they are so worried about girls lifting heavy stuff. They always hand me the light stuff. I think I impressed one of the friends helping when he and I moved a really heavy futon by ourselves. It felt good! I am happy to help people move especially since its not my stuff and I don't have to figure out where it all has to go at the end.
Because of this I didn't really get a chance to eat dinner. I had a protein shake after my workout and wasn't ever hungry so thats a good thing. I had a few chips and dip and one beer. So probably not the best night for eating by not getting an actual meal. I have felt really bloated this week too. Sigh. Maybe its the warmer weather? I have still been drinking my usual 2+ liters of water while at work. I have my t.o.m. next week but am on bcp's so my hormonal fluctuations are quite different because of that. I always wonder what the effects of the pill are on losing body fat. I know each individual reacts differently to them - some gain weight some lose. Some have no effects at all.
Anywho, I usually lift on Saturdays but I think I am going to do it on Sunday instead. Sunday is usually a rest day but tomorrow we are planning on doing some serious yard work digging and placing pavers. I don't think my DH knows how much work this project will be. Its not a large area, but hauling rock and dirt will be involved. It will be fun though - in a weird way I look forward to the physical stuff. I probably wouldn't if I had to do it everyday though!
