Just One of Those Days

Photo: This is how I feel so far today!
Today was one of those days where hiding under the pillow seemed like a good idea.  I woke up feeling tired and not wanting to move.  That is not an option in the morning when it is time to get kids on the bus.  It takes a while for the allergy meds to kick in.  I wake up stuffy and runny at the same time.
 
My meeting was canceled today and even though I was planning on a day off today, I went to the gym. I decided to lift and do a little cardio.  I took a pocketful of cough drops and tissues and hoped for the best.
 
My arms are looking stronger, but my triceps are still not where I want them.  If I want to get more definition, I am going to have to watch what I eat better.  Making cookies yesterday was probably not the best move. I am having a hard time eating in general.  I am at a point where nothing sounds good. I overdosed on lettuce wraps, now I don't want them. I don't want any raw vegetables.  The only things that sound good are berries and rotisserie chicken.  And cookies.
 
I tried to be good and have a protein shake after my workout.  It was the worst one I have ever tried.  I downed it any way, but it was HORRIBLE. (GNC brand) I think I am going to have to do shakes until my nose clears up and I have a desire to eat.
