Exhaustion

Yesterday was a total loss in regards of productivity.  Both Kat and I were shot.  We did make it to the Judaica shop and up to see Kat's parents.  We had a nice visit and were sent home w/ 3 flat boxes full of tomatoes.  With both of us so tired, we didn't feel like cooking dinner.  We stopped at Albertson's on the way home to pick something easy up.  We walked in and there right in front of us, my nemesis, Oreos!  Not just any Oreos, but ones shaped like footballs!!

I was happy that I was able to walk away and not buy any.  It also really showed me how when I'm tired, I am at risk for binging.  So not only is it hard to concentrate and physically function, being tired sets me up for failure in my diet as well.  Just another reason to try to focus on getting enough sleep and rest.

I am still tired today, but doing better.  I am able to focus on what I need to take care of myself.  I went to the gym and did an upper body weight set and some lower body cardio.  It felt good and I didn't over do.  I am hoping for an early to bed tonight, but with football on, I don't know if I can be that strong and make myself go to bed.
