It was a slammed-packed day today. I had the leave the house by 6:30am to be able to get to work for a conference call at 7:00am. So, I took my breakfast to go this morning, and ate right after the conference call. Then I taught anatomy dissection for three hours, and had 45 minutes to eat lunch. That actually translates to taking my supplements, waiting for 30 minutes, and then having 15 minutes to each lunch. I was able to cram it in (not the best strategy), before I had to teach again. I ended up just eating the pilaf, and saving the cucumber salad for my snack, which I ate after teaching. After finishing work, I rushed home, and had about 30 minutes to start preparing dinner before Keenan had to go to baseball practice. I cut all the vegetables up, and had everything prepared and stowed in the fridge, to cook after baseball practice was done. Halfway through Keenan’s practice, I had another conference call (which was AMAZING), so I sat outside in the sun while working. We got home around 6:45, and I took my supplements and started cooking. It was just the boys and I home tonight (Elliott had a school function again tonight, and Cory had a meeting). It was a quick dinner to cook since everything was already cut, so we managed to sit down around 7:30, and start eating. Then, it was off in the car again for my softball game (needed to be there by 8:30pm. Cory met me there to pick up the kids (so they could go home and go to bed), and I ended up getting home around 10:45pm.
But here’s where I am proud of myself. I ate extremely healthy, as well as the kids, even though it was a packed day. This program just keeps showing me more and more how I can plan and prepare to be able to still eat healthy. I don’t need to rely of frozen pizzas or take-out burritos when times are busy. I can still take the time to make healthy meals at home.
Win!
