What do you mean Low Carb???: Dirty With a Side of Sugar

Ok. Maybe it’s not as easy as I thought. I am struggling with the whole Clean Eating thing. I am pretty sure it is because my life has been turned upside down in the last few weeks. Here is a time line of my life in the last 2 months:

· March 1^st: List house with Greg Crandall (Remax)

o Cleaning, Gym, rearranging, etc.

· March 20^th: Accept offer on house… They want to close April 30^th!!!

· April 1^st: Last Month of Grad School forever!!! Can’t wait but lots to be done.

· April 7^th: Get on a plane to Vegas

Vegas- Jamie and I infront of Paris Hotel, at
The Bellagio Fountains

· April 8^th: Should be worrying about things like the million assignments I have to get done for grad school, home that is in shambles, my job etc. but instead I am cozied up with my husband by the pool at the fabulous Vdara Hotel & Spa. (this is much better than worrying about everything else)

· April 12^th: Get off the plane and immediately start packing for our big move.

· April 13^th: Oh yeah… and homework

· April 14^th: Oh, I still have a job that needs attention too… Whoops!

· April 20^th: Complete move, now new house in shambles…

· April 23^rd: Yup… Still have that Job, oh yeah and homework

· April 28^th: Close on old house

· May 4^th: School done, Old house done, new house: ehh- good enough.

Whew… I am exhausted just thinking about it! But nevertheless, I decided in the midst of all of this that I would try a new lifestyle. Yeah, and who was I kidding.

So, here we are a week into it and I have already eaten Chinese and a pound of skittles… Not quite clean eating. More like dirty with a side of sugar.

I am going to continue do the best I can, while it is really hard eating 5-6 small meals a day, I will continue to work with that and I do love cooking so it is not that hard for me to come home and cook a healthy dinner. The real problem is eating before 9pm! I recently downloaded a tool from Tosca Reno’s website that will hopefully keep me more organized and on the right track. I included the link to it here.

The one constant in my life has been the gym, while I haven’t been going my usual 6 days a week, (it’s been more like 4) it has continued to level me out, and keep me focused on my goals: To become the healthiest, hottest 30-almost 31 year old I can.

Here’s to being hotter at 30 than I was at 20!!! With that said, off to the gym I go J
