I haven't been doing as well as I should have and would have. I've been eating on the right track, though. I just finished my internship at the hospital. I was in the emergency room, so you can imagine how busy that was!

I made sure I'd eat a healthy, filling breakfast. I'd pack snack bads of carrots, cut up apples, and a banana to eat throughout the day. Sometimes I wouldn't get a lunch until an hour before my shift ended. So, I was prepared. For lunch I'd pack healthy. If I didn't find time to pack anything, I'd buy some fruits and veggies, with tea or water.

Anyway, the reason I've slacked on the working out was because when I'd get home I just couldn't think right or keep my eyes open. I did alright. I'd get up at 4:30am, be on my feet all day until I got home at around 4pm. My shoulders would tense up really bad the last hours of my shift. When I got home, I'd eat something light...unless I had a late lunch. I'd make sure I didn't have that "starving feeling". Then I'd fit in my workouts and cardio, and end up going to be later than I wanted. I found that I needed a lot more sleep to do my job at the hospital. On Thursday, I was in lala land. And that's not good, haha. So, later that night, I didn't log what I'd eaten, I didn't workout. I didn't workout Friday either. So, I decided to finish out the week. I had so much sleep to catch up on. It was silly of me to start to HUGE things in my life at the same time, until I was used to one or the other, ya know. Soon, this will be second nature. So, Monday I'm starting Phase 3, Week 2, Workout 1.

I'm very motivated about this, but last week, my energy went into my internship and I had nothing left when I was home. I tried to hard to juggle both. Next week is definitely going to end better!!

I now have my diet plan AND workout plan and I couldn't be more happy to get this thing on a roll!

(I know you're not supposed to workout Sundays, but I went to the gym today to make up for thur-sat. )
