Hey there! so I have been EXTREMELY busy at work and VERY STRESSED. Sorry I wasn't able to update so I'll try and fill you in now.
Tuesday was a very strange day for me. I almost feel like I went into a depression. I was feeling okay most of the day and I think the stress of work and this ETO visit really got to me. Breakfast on Tuesday was Bacon and eggs and I had a LARABAR about an hour after that, for my fruit/fats serving. Wednesday I had an Extremely rushed breakfast of bacon wrapped dates and a LARABAR because my alarm clock didn't go off and I was BEYOND late for work :-/
Tuesday mid-morning is when I started to feel the stress and the depression. I had people in my room all day telling me what to do to prepare for this visit and how to do it. I wanted to scream. Talk about taking your self confidence and flushing it down the toilet. It's as if I'm incompetent and don't know what I'm doing after teaching for 9 years! Rawr!! Wednesday Morning was a little bit better but the kids were completely wild because it was Halloween! I expect today to be the worst because they are all high on candy overload!
Tuesday lunch was buffalo chicken wraps and I had never been so grateful for that 30 minutes in my life time. I was actually online searching for jobs during my lunch.... (Anyone hiring? wanna sponsor me as an athlete/coach? anything?) Wednesday lunch was Zucchini spaghetti with meatballs and marinara. Another pretty delicious treat!
Tuesday after lunch was an uphill battle. I couldn't wait for the bell to ring and get to the box. When I finally got there, i ran a mile to blow off some steam before coaching the 4:30 class. I ran it in 8:20 which is about 40 seconds slower than my best mile but I blame it on the wind... it was like a freaking brick wall! I coached the 4:30 and 5:30- through HEAVY FRAN and then I decided to take her on myself. What can I say besides, she kicked my ass and wrote down my name?! I felt horrible. I wanted to cry during the workout because never before had 95# thrusters felt so heavy (well except maybe the first time I did them). It was a very tough moment for me. I completed the workout in 10:20 with disgusting pull ups and way too much rest in between thrusters. But at least I finished right?? I left the box with my head held very low but i silently vowed to myself that no matter what I was going to get back to where I was and better and I Was going to do it NOW! For dinner was Country style ribs with butternut squash. Trent really enjoyed it. I liked the butternut squash better than the ribs but I'm not a huge fan of ribs in the first place. The squash was amazing and I will definitely be making that again.
Wednesday I didn't go to the box instead we decided to Trick or Treat for time.... 3,2,1 BOO!! It worked and we definitely loaded Dyan up with her fair share of Candy. It was very very very tempting to just reach in her bag last night and open up a Lil double bubble but I resisted! somehow I didn't do it!
we go home pretty late and I had some buffalo chicken wraps for dinner. I know I shouldn't have but I also snuck in some dates. It was Halloween and at least they are Whole30 approved! right?? lol So I have 6 days left not including today and I definitely know I can make it! I don't know if I will be able to resist going to Starbucks on the 8th but I'll try to make it through to the weekend.... NO PROMISES. I hope you have a great Thursday and I'll be back soon! My dreadful visit is tomorrow.... wish me luck!!
