We all fall off the health wagon; the point is to get back on

So this weekend was partially great and partially a disaster.

First of all, saturday morning I attended the "Fitness Magazine Health and wellness Expo" in NYC. It was a great experience. I got some freebies and listened to a workshop on exercize led by a famous doctor (cannot remember his name @ the moment). Soon after arriving at the expo, I got the impression the the event was geared more towards the people that had signed up for the half marathon to take place the next day (sunday, 04/25). Being at the event made me wish I was part of that "runners group". Perhaps next year :). I invited a friend to go with me and we had a good time. In addition to free deodorant and coupons for Soy Milk, I got a pretty cool bag from a company called Lululemon (I think is a lunch bag):





I also grabbed one too many bottles of "Skinny Water". Dont know what they put on that thing but it was addicting. I didnt want to stop drinking it. Hence, the empty bottle:








Ok, so for the disaster portion of my weekend....I don’t know what got in to me but after that event (got home close to 5pm) I had a sudden urge to just be home relaxing and watching TV for the rest of the weekend.
It could be because of all the stress I have been going through with school in the past few months.
However, bottom line is I hybernated in front of the TV for a little bit too long. And you know what that triggers? my sweet tooth. I also get really anxious because I know I have things to do but all I really want to do is lay back and do nothing!.
So, basically, for me: bumming around+ anxiety+ sweet tooth= over-eating.


...and that's what I did. I was home alone and I snacked on pretty much everything that I found in my cupboard. I even heated up things that had been in my freezer for months
(pizza pockets?!! are u kidding me?!?!?). And yes, I confess that I am not perfect. That sometimes I do fall off the health wagon but I do get right back on it!
Happy Monday!!!

What Do You Do When Insecurities Come Creeping Back?

2017 has been quite the transformative year for me. I am not 100% sure when a "shift" happened. Perhaps it was while strolling t...
