Routines and Stress -Kim

I will start this post with a brief background of the last year of my life.

Hubby has some kind of sleeping issue which keeps me up literally for a week
Grandma passes away, travel home
Moving begins and ends
Hubby's contract gets cut again
Today

To say the last few years have been what I expected would be a lie. But I dealt with them as best as I could. I managed to get through 75% of that list without a hiccup. But the last month and a half...um no. I am struggling big time with routine. I haven't figured out how to get back on one at all which had made weight loss difficult. I haven't put a lb on, which I'm proud of under all this stress, but I'm tired of maintaining. I am tired of it because its stressing me out big time.

So what is a girl to do? Get back on it. Bed at 10 pm no matter what. Up at 5:15. No sleeping in late. That's the biggest problem, you see I'm writing this at 11pm. I am so off. I also will drink 2 shakeology shakes a day to help with cravings, as my lack of sleep impacts that as well. These 2 things are my big game plan between now and the reset on the 21st. I will workout however 5 days a week. That's my plan.
