    Tuesdays are my worst day of the week... For some reason I am up at 4am every Tuesday, and just starving all day! Pretty sure my Monday Fast day is the reason....

    Still on budget for the day, but can't wait until I get to have dinner!

    Aren't Tuesday's totally rough??

    Well...days 6 and 7 were not very good but 8 and 9 were great! Came in under calorie goal, drank my 100oz of water both days. Worked out today. Feeling fabulous!

    11,500 steps on Monday (most so far). Not so good Tuesday but did work instead. Will do more today.

    Despite getting a bite from our dominant male seal on my thigh (luckily not a serious bite as I used a nice judo dodge move) in the afternoon, I got in an hour of fencing and 90 minutes of judo last night! It was really good to be back at fencing as I have been away since August (knee surgery and then seasonal break) and my coach commented on how much faster I am! Wednesday started with killer core fitness class and tonight it is BJJ again...

    I work at a zoo, mostly with reptiles and seals!

    Luckily my knee surgery was minor, just shaving off some damaged cartilage. I got back to my martial arts and fitness training first because of the timing of competitions and the fact that fencing takes a seasonal break whereas my MMA gym doesn't. I love our dojo because the floor is designed to bear impact and my knee really doesn't take any strain at all there. I'm going to have to go slowly as I restart fencing due to the impact, but I have time as my first big fencing competition is July! Got a bjj comp end of Feb so that is main focus right now.

    Today started with a walk with a friend, Mom and my overly enthusiastic labrador! He gives me a good core workout on the walk. Another busy day with the animals (I'm so ready for a break as I work right through summer peak season, Southern Hemisphere!) and then some sword play with my buddies!

    I nearly left MFP last night. I get so overwhelmed with everything, it drives me nuts. This week hasn't been so great, but I'm still ok net calorie wise, because I'm still more active than I was before the New Year. I need to get back on track tomorrow, mentally more than anything. I have this problem with self sabotage, I'm sure some of you can relate. I wasn't familiar with it till this past year or so. I keep fighting to overcome, but soon as I start feeling good, or hit a loss, I lose my head. So again, tomorrow is a new day! :smile:
