2 Weeks out! On Track!

The past couple of days have been very intense. My focus on my diet and workouts are right on track! It is hard to concentrate on anything else. Focus is the key! School is almost over! I have been tempted so much to get off track of my diet! It is hard when the kids bring you stuff to eat all the time or when I have to give them a snack! I decided to go to the river and socialize and relax today! It was so hot and humid. I brought my food and water with me but was still tempted to eat the pizza someone brought. It made things worse to see them put it right into my face and eat it after it was heated up in the microwave. Some people just don't understand why we figure competitors do what we do. I wish more people were involved in the sport here at home but they are not. Sometimes I feel like a loner because I do not go out shopping and eating and drinking all the time. I sometimes tell people I eat this way because of the way it makes me feel....The food we eat can have an effect on our mood and energy level also.....I did not work out today.....I worked out sooo hard this past week that I felt like I could afford a day off.....balance and moderation are the key to staying healthy! We went and ate shrimp after we got off the river....I stuck to my diet pretty good. Since shrimp is high in sodium, I expect to gain some weight in the morning.....I will start cutting salt down in my diet soon to keep from holding water and to get leaner. THE POWER OF PERSPECTIVE: THE WAY YOU LOOK AT A SITUATION IS THE WAY YOU MAKE IT WORK FOR YOU!
