I am feeling very tired and hungry. It is 2:00 p.m. and I have eaten all but my last posted meal and the 250 calorie meal remaining. I figure I'll eat to bring my macros closer to goal, although I'm not going to stress about that. Mostly I need to sleep. I didn't get to bed until close to 11:30 p.m. two days straight. I'm supposed to be at work by 8:00 a.m. but lately I'm 1/2 hour late (1 hour today) for the time it takes me to pack my cooler. And I didn't do anything really elaborate. Everything was cooked, just weighed and stuck it in containers. It doesn't take much to pack a nectarine and a piece of string cheese. So, late to work means cutting my lunch hour in half and losing my nap. Today it means working late as well. But Wednesday is my night off my trainer job, so I will probably go home and do some laundry and relax. I really hate going into the gym to workout on my only night off. Between both jobs I work 7 days a week--I cherish my one night off. And today is my dad's b-day, so I'll probably visit with my parents on Skype for a bit. They love that--the whole video telephone thing. I must admit it was very cool when I did this for the first time with my daughters last week. It is truly like being there.
To offset my otherwise lack of activity, I did spend half of my 30 min. lunch walking outside in the heat and humidity. I made a pit stop on one of my trips to pee to stop and do a set of single leg squats, get my circulation going. Maybe I'll get a chance to walk again at home. Or clean...that would probably burn more.
On a more positive note, my weight was down to 134 this a.m. But I haven't had a lot of water the last couple of days, so could be some dehydration. Either way, that is first time I've hit that weight since September--and it is the lowest weight I've maintained in my later adult years. So, good news. I redid my measurements because when I posted yesterday I was going by memory. Hips are actually 36" and thighs 22-1/4". Waist is the same. That sucks because my waist is always too big in proportio to my hips and now it is worse. Oh well. So curious what my waist will be once I melt away that fat layer (and if I'll have any butt left at all).
