Again with the Best Laid Plans...

I was doing good. I was doing really good. I was swimming three days a week. I was eating well. It was great.

Then it was my birthday and I slipped a little. I ate out a little too much. I drank a little too much. I missed the gym.

Then CJ ended up in the hospital and the whole thing blew up. I'm an emotional eater and I was stressed. I ate. I drank. I ate at McDonald's. Twice. I missed the gym.

We still don't know what is wrong with CJ and I'm still worried. But he's fine. He's got energy that I don't have. He also got four units of blood to get him there...

So, I'm back on. I went swimming yesterday and did only half a workout, but that is better than nothing. I started tracking my points again this morning. I started drinking tea again.

I think as long as CJ doesn't end up in the hospital again, I'll be okay for awhile.

PLANS!!!

I've got plans people, plans!

First, I'm back on the weight loss thing. I'm done almost 5 pounds since the new year, a total of 12 since the beginning of this thing. Hooray.

Today, I started a swimming plan to go from swimming 0 to 1650 (that's a mile) in 6 weeks. I'm thinking it will take me more like 8, but what a great way to deal with the remaining winter and knock one of the goals off my list.

Next, we are starting to plan our spring trip. Looks like we will be going to New Orleans this spring. There we will hang out with two friends, knocking off two of five out of MN friends visited (I changed it to 5, 2 was too easy.)

Next weekend, I plan to have a professional massage. That's another goal, it will be the first of three.

Like I said, I've got plans.
