The next 14 days

Since my last post I have hardly been to the gym, it's like I just get over one week of bad news and another one creeps right up on me. 
We have had people staying with us on and off since Oct 7th, SICK people, relatives from out of state.  My 20 year old cousin and his mom just left our house on Monday, he has cancer and was in MN seeing some dr's at the U of M.  His outlook is grim, it is so sad to watch.

On Friday I went to happy hour with some co-workers, it was my pre-birthday bash!!  We had so much fun and my husband even arranged for his sister and her fiance to show up and surprise me.  I will turn 39 again and again if it means having fun with family and friends!!!

We did alot of eating out last week, with the company at our house and the birthday meals!!!  I had absolutely no accountability for what went into my mouth, liquid or solid!!
I am paying the price this week, I feel bloated and fat!!  I feel tired and lazy!!  I feel miserable!!   I went to the gym tonight even though my stomach had that bloated feeling.  I did 60 minutes on the elliptical, my hope was that I would feel better as the minutes past, I didn't but I did it!!  I am now on my 4th glass of water for the day.  I am hoping that the water along with a fiber pill will make some magic and my stomach will feel better.  We have a wedding in Az on Nov 11th, I was telling my husband if I don't kick it in high gear from now until then, the skirt I bought will no longer fit!!!!  I fail miserably when my routine gets messed up!!  I am hoping for some great workouts and some good eating the next 14 days!!
My friend is doing really well with her eating and has lost 5lbs.  Now it's mine turn!!!   Here's to the next 14 days of showing my body whose boss!!!!  Good luck to me!!
