There are two ways of meeting difficulties: you alter the difficulties, or you alter yourself to meet them.

Well where to begin....time lol...Im not going to eat fat with carbs...going to add some good fat in and the no carbs in the am or the pm....so these are the major things that are going to change in my diet....
Training is a whole other story...My hubby (whom I have major problems with anyway) came home last night to tell me that he was moved to afternoons. Okay....that is from 2:30 -10:30...So all my training is going to have to happen in the day now unless I take the kids to the gym and stick them in child care which is still a option. he won't see the kids except in the am and I will be with them all night and doing all the homework, sports...ect....So my training will have to fit around all of this...which is still really possible. The pool opens at 6:30am...lol...OH and the other thing is I have to work days now.....I guess the good thing is that he has a job still
So I am a little stressed out...but anything is workable... to life at the moment....
But I did make some promises yesterday that I will stick to......

Not sure about training today. Thought about running....but somedays the old body needs a day break if the training is hard....but well see...I really need to hit the weights....I might have to invest in some to have a home for these kind of days..I worked at the gym this am in membership...had to run home for the bus...but I don't feel like going back later....
