I’ve been experimenting, switching things up, trying new things, in an effort to find what works best for me. For a while, I ditched my food diary, and while it has been nice not dealing with the hassle of logging everything, searching foods in the database, figuring out how to enter certain meals, etc., I have to admit, I just might really need the accountability of actually writing down (or, more like it, typing in) everything I eat and drink. So today I am back to logging my food on MyFitnessPal.
Last night, instead of a formal workout, I changed clothes and got busy, catching up on cleaning I felt too lazy to do this past weekend. Sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, cleaning hardwood floors, you name it, it got whipped into shape with a vengeance.
I remember one of my stepdaughters telling me, “Wow, you must really like to clean.” I laughed, because really, I don’t. But I do like having a clean, tidy house, so cleaning is obviously a necessary evil.
My husband and I had to get up extra early this morning, so I am sleepy and not terribly motivated to get much done today. I will hunt down a low-key workout for the evening…then go to bed early!
I’m still logging everything too.
And yay for a clean house.

Cleaning is a workout in itself. Especially if you are anything like me. I like to pretend my home is not lived in and should look immaculate at all times.

I find, for myself, that logging is key. Cleaning is definitely a workout! Hope you can get some rest tonight!

I gave up calorie counting because it was driving me crazy. I was more concerned on the numbers than nourishing myself.

I find that my house feels more comfortable when clean. So yeah, cleaning is a necessary evil.
Good job getting back to tracking your food! It’s definitely effective, even though it can get tedious.
