Good evening Diet Bet Nation!
4 Days left in the Diet Bet! I am so thankful for this amazing experience! I can't believe that when I push play tomorrow, it will be the last workout in Alpha before I move on to Beta in T25! So this STATurday, along with my Stats I'm also going to post my before/after picture for Alpha! I never ever EVER post pictures of myself in a bathing suit for the world to see, but I'm excited to share the visual results of T25 Alpha with everyone.
I'm only in the third week of the semester, and I already feel like I'm being pulled in one hundred different directions! This week, I especially feel this way because I either have an evening rehearsal, or one of my colleagues is performing a concert so I'm not getting home until 9 pm at the earliest everyday this week. On the flip side of this schedule, I have gotten really great at meal prep and packing healthy dinners on the go!
Last night after a long day at school, I recieved a text from the elderly woman I get groceries and run errands for saying she didn't need me to see her this Thursday because her referigerator was fully stocked - freeing my morning completely!
Whats funny is that the universe instantly knew I was free, because two professors asked me to meet with them Thursday morning. Though I was free to meet becuase of my work being canceled, I told them I was unavabile and found a different time to meet. I really needed a morning for me. :)
When my alarm goes off in the mornings, I am get up and go! I drink shakeology, and start my workout ASAP! I even set my timer for 30 minutes, and race to get in my shower, get dressed, and put on makeup so I can move onto homework or practicing. Always, when I'm eating breakfast or lunch, I am responding to e-mails or reading articles for class. I always feel that if I'm not moving as fast as possible to the next thing, I'm falling behind on my day. My spirit animal is a shark - if I'm not constantly moving forward I would die. :)
But this morning, I slowed way down. I slept in an extra 30 minutes, got my workout in, took a shower without a timer and even took the time to put on lotion and blow dry my hair, and during breakfast and lunch, I completely unplugged. It was only a morning, but I feel refreshed and recharged.
Onwards!
