So my morning already started off with a bump in the road. I was going to grab my chicken and get veggies ready for my lunch, but the chicken I had prepped was all gone, apparently my hubby ate it all. I had taken the time to slice it up, weigh it out, and pre-portion it in baggies for my lunch and he ate it! I was so mad. I had nothing else to eat for lunch because that was what I had planned, so I guess it's off to the grocery store to buy more chicken to grill and a salad for lunch today. He's so lucky he was sleeping or he would have been ripped a new one this morning. By the end of the day I'll have cooled off and can calmly explain to him that if he wants stuff prepped for lunch he needs to get off his butt and at least help me do it. I guess I should look at the positive that he's trying to eat healthier, but it's hard when I'm doing all the work to make the healthy food. Okay enough of that rant. :)
I did get up and do a workout this morning and went for a walk again last night. I have been eating healthy foods this week. Our dinners haven't been super healthy, but I'm trying to stick to moderation. Even though I have to go get my lunch today I still want something healthy, I haven't (yet) made the excuse that since I have to go get something I can get something bad for me, so that's progress. Tonight I probably won't get a walk in because I need to do some major studying for a test. I have a test on 5 chapters that I need to get done and I've been putting it off because it's a lot of material to cover. We'll see though I still may try to get something small in, yoga maybe, because I've been sleeping like a rock when I've gotten activity in during the evening.
My big debate today is whether or not to order a new exercise program. I know my hubby will not be happy if I do because I've ordered a bunch already, but there is a new Facebook challenge involving a workout and eating program that I'd like to do (21 Day Fix). I felt like the last challenge I did was helpful for my eating and the next one is a 3 week not just a 5 day program. I know a lot of it is about money because they want you to buy their program, but really it's given me motivation and some helpful tools and tips for healthy eating. I can either pay $60 up front or make payments of $20 per month. I don't know what I'm going to do, but I have to decide by today because today's the deadline. I guess it's cheaper than my hubby's gym membership that he never uses, and maybe he would participate somewhat too since he's trying to eat healthier. Decisions, decisions.
Well, enough of my crazy ramblings today. Have a great Hump Day!!

Hey Mary! I totally get the part of when you do all the work and hubby comes along and takes it and ruins your plans! But there is trade off - you probably ruin his plans too from time to time! As for buying more videos - google Melissa Bender - she has tons of workouts on line that are free! Good luck!

My fiance would have been found floating in the lake by our house if he pulled that on me. He knows not to touch my protein bars or veggie protein under order of death. I would have woken him up and read him the riot act. That's an act of diet sabotage in my book.

Aggie- You're right, I know there are things that I've done like that too. I just need to remember that.
Nmporter- LOL!! Usually my hubby never eats leftover anything, unless it's junk, like pizza, so I thought the chicken would be safe. Next time he'll know.

It sounds like your a wonderful wife... allowing yourself to cool down and talk it over with your husband like a friend would. For exercising you could consider getting a rebounder. It is a small trampoline and is great to work out on and especially good for circulation of blood/oxygen etc. I love it because I can jog on it in my bare feet!!

Try a note on/in the baggie. Might work...if not ...I agree this means WAR!

I understand what you are talking about. If I buy/fix something special that I can eat, DH has grabbed it and eaten it and said that is horrible stuff. Even though I keep sweet crap in the house for him. It is very infuriating.

Most men will eat anything when they are hungry, especially if it's already made. I would have been so mad, now that he knows I hope he won't do it again.

I like all of the varied responses on my lunch issue. :) Well a note on the challenge, instead of buying just the $60 program it is $100 more than that because you have to buy Shakeology. I'm just not sold on Shakeology over something cheaper, I mean $130 for a month's worth. Yea, $100 is a discount on that, but too much for my blood. If it was just the workout program I'd consider it. So I guess that made up my mind on that issue. I'll stick to what I've got for now. :)
