Long Day

Howdy ya'll! 

We made the chicken and salsa recipe for the crockpot last night.  It was AHHHH-MAZING!!!!  It was so delicious and so easy!!! You all must try! We (mi madre and I) bought stuff for tacos like we normally would have and then instead of beef tacos we had chicken tacos!  They seriously were amazing! All we did was put 5 frozen chicken breasts in a crockpot with a jar of salsa for the entire day and then shredded it up and POOF.....chicken tacos just like the local mexican restaurant!

I didn't sleep well at ALL last night.  I had horrible dreams and kept waking up all night.  Then when it was time to actually get up at 4:30am to go workout, I didn't feel like it at ALL!  This week was hard for me.  I haven't had a problem getting up to workout ANY of the last 4-5 weeks and then this week, I haven't wanted to at all!  My shins have been extremely sore and I have to push through workouts and it isn't a lot of fun.  I dont know... I also WAS so flippin excited about tracking all my calories in and out and that feeling has subdued this week.  I don't know if it is partly because I am heading back to visit old friends and I am SUPER excited to drink wine all weekend with them and eat as much of their Chinese food as possible!?!  It is the BEST Chinese I have ever had!  I might founder on it to be honest.  I will NOT be counting calories at all!  Well, I will conciously try to eat not so much and I might order chicken fried rice instead of the breaded chicken I normally get.  Either way, I don't know why I am feeling this way but I am hoping to get through the weekend and move on, continuing in the right direction by working out hard and losing weight. 

Life is about lessons.  I have to continually learn what works for me and my body and what doesn't work.  I need to learn to see what my body is telling me and actually pay attention to it and not ignore it!  It is possible.  I have seen/read so many blogs of people that have done it!  The biggest realization is that it is a constant struggle but it is COMPLETELY doable! 

Have a great evening!  Be healthy!
