I loved being able to spend time with our families before heading off on the honeymoon but the day finally came and away we went, to Fredericksburg, Texas.... home of many many wineries and the land of fresh peaches and amazing German Food!!
We certainly had an amazing time.... we did lots of wine tastings and ate lots of really good schnitzel but now we are back home and trying to get back into somewhat of a routine again. I have really enjoyed my time off of work and only have a couple of vacation days left before I am back to the grindstone again....
Speaking of grindstone... it's a good time to get back on track as well. My workouts have been really good and pretty consistent... however, my eating has not. I have enjoyed myself a little too much.
I keep telling everyone that since the wedding has come and gone that it is time to set another goal and that's exactly what I plan to do. I like being able to enjoy myself and kick back and splurge from time to time and enjoy a little wine but at the same time, I have to find that balance of discipline and enjoying my life... I know that I can do it. It's not going to be easy.... hell, none of it is easy.... but I want this... I really want this.... so I MUST find that balance.
I'm not on a diet, nor will I put myself on a diet... because that implies that I am doing something temporary and temporary is not my plan nor my goal. My goal is healthy! Sure, I would like to lose weight but what I want more than to lose weight is to lose body fat. I will get back to logging my food so that I am accountable for what I eat, I will track my workouts and I will go back to a cleaner diet (and by diet I just mean the food that I eat). I will continue my splurge days on the weekends but the weekdays I will be more strict.
I have done this before and I can do it again!!
