nothing like no sleep and a heavy period to screw up your plans

ok, so as always, i am eating pretty well this week and not working out enough. i made some salmon tuesday night for dinner with some rice and some stir-fried veggies--definitely good and healthy. i have been making our lunches this week except for one day, so that's not so bad. last night, we ordered take-out chines because neither of us left work before 7:15pm. BUT, i chose this place to order from that is about 10x healthier than your average chinese restaurant--fresh, good-quality ingredients, very very little fat on the meat, no MSG, and they even have brown rice instead of white. so all in all, not too bad. i admit to some small amount of chocolate this week, but still--nothing too over the top.

as for the working out thing... it never goes as well, and it's almost folly to try to get going while i am bleeding like a stuck pig. man it makes me TIRED. i did that pilates tape on monday, and that was good. and i had every intention of going to this step class at the gym last night. however, tuesday night, i think i slept about three hours--between that and the bleeding, i was just beat. today i feel a ton better, so i am going to do the pilates thing again. it's WAY better than doing nothing! then tomorrow, there's another step class, so i think i will try to make it to that. good intentions and all that. road to hell and all that, too.
