Always Plan Ahead

It has been a rough few weeks for me. Even though I have been working out 5-6 days a week, my weight has been at a plateau and I have been doing the Daniel Fast, which is a spiritual fast, but my body is so drained from doing all of these fasts lately, that I really need to get back on a well-balanced meal plan. I need to give my body the nourishment it needs because obviously, I am not giving it enough of something. Anyways, I broke the fast yesterday while celebrating at the skating rink for my sons 5th birthday. I felt bad because this fast was for spiritual reasons and I normally can last through any situation. I did not plan for myself yesterday, something that I normally am on top of. I am a part-time traveling hairstylist and went to do a client turned good friend's hair at 7:30am. I did have half an apple and a handful of grapes with a cup of green tea for my breakfast. Afterwards, I had to run a few errands before my babies party began at 1:30pm and by the time I finish

The coldest winter ever!!!

Well today was an off day for me.. The temperature here in Chicago is -45 degrees with the wind chill. My job closed down for the day, the kids schools have also shut down for the day.. So we have been in the house relaxing and watching movies... The kids have no school tomorrow and as for myself, I have to wake up and check to see if my job is opening which I'm sure it will be. Glad I went out Saturday and picked up a few groceries while we had the heat wave of 30 degrees. Lol.. It may not look like I will be warm enough but believe me I had on 3 jackets, 2 scarves, long johns and thigh high socks... Lol.. Oh and I can't forget about my trusty ole earmuffs... Do I wear hats? No, but I do have one and prepared to put it on when needed. And with this negative degree weather I'm certain that I will be putting it on for work tomorrow. If you don't have to go outside DON'T... This cold is very dangerous.. If it's a must, please make sure to stay safe and warm. U
