My First Week of 2012

Well 1 week down, only 51 more to go till 2013. So far 2012 has kept me busy and a bit stressed.

Work has been CRAZY! I had a student end up crying in my office because she so stressed about school. I had a student call me 13 times in a 45 minute span. And I left my office yesterday with more work to do then when I walked in. I just hope next week will clam down (but I highly doubt it) and I'll be able to get caught up on all my work before we go on our honeymoon (which is in less than 2 weeks!).

Other than work keeping me busy, I have kept up on my New Year's resolution and I made it to the gym 6 times this week. Success! So what were the results of my hard work...


Not too bad, I'll take a 1.6 pound decrease. I need to keep this up because I have to go swimsuit shopping next week.

Also with the new year, I'm trying to make better choices when it comes to what I put into my body. Both Tuesday and Wednesday I had a salad with my lunch.

 (Wednesday's lunch- salad with egg white, carrot, mozzarella cheese, 1 slice of ham and turkey & leftover chili)

For a girl who could get through a side salad just a few years ago, this is a big improvement. I used to hate the taste of lettuce. However, as I got older, I found out there are many different types of lettuce (not just iceberg) and with the right toppings, a salad can be pretty tasty. Now if I can only find a dressing other than ranch that I like it would make for a lot healthier lunch.


How was your first week of 2012?
