Almost finished with week 3 and it is just now starting to get to me. I have been doing so well and I am not getting burned out! I know I have to keep going and I have not even had a small temptation to cheat. I have even skipped out on going to lunch with someone because I wasn't sure what I could have there. But it is starting to get the best of me. I just want for once a quick easy meal. I am so tired of cooking three meals a day! I just want to make a turkey sandwich and be done with it! I just want to throw a bagel in the toaster and have breakfast! I don't want to make an egg every day and a chicken breast and veggies for lunch and dinner. I just want something fast and easy that I can grab and go! Its not even the eating the food that is bothering me its the cooking and cleaning so much. I am tired of all the work involved! I just want to pop something in the microwave and have lunch in 5 mins and only one plate to wash, not 30 mins of cooking and then 10 mins of cleaning! Ugh why does eating right have to be so much work!!! I would love to be a millionaire, then I could have someone do all my cooking and cleaning. Oh what a dream!!
On a good night I did the 30 day Shred again yesterday. It was much easier then before and I am not as sore. They asked me to only do it a few times a week as they really only want me walking but it is so freaking hot outside and I don't mind the extra workout. Especially if it works! I weigh in tomorrow. So far it looks like I may have lost 1 lbs last week. I would love more then that but a pound lost is better then a pound gained. I will update tomorrow on the total lost. Oh and I get a cheat meal next week. I can't wait. I need it so bad!!! Carrabba's here I come!!
Keep it up Shannon! You can do it!! Have you ever thought of prepping everything at once and cooking it at once then just re-heating? Maybe that would help.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what the balance of your steamed veggies have to be, but I get frozen veggie steamers for the kids and me (in the frozen section), no clean up--zap it for a few minutes and open the bag. I think that there are steamer bags available in the baggie aisle as well, so you can make your own combinations.
ReplyDeleteYou're doing great! :)
awesome! I hate preparing meals too, I have to be in the mood, but hey it's worth it! I really need to start food prep again for Sean:) we have been overworked and tired and that is no good for a balanced diet. You can do it Shannon. I always admire your dedication!
