Do you ever find that you reach a breaking point??  It's so hard for me to describe what happens when I get into my own head.  I should know by now that I cannot go into a cardio flow if I'm not 100% mentally there.  Yesterday morning we caught up on that missed workout from Saturday and I was already emotional.  I started off strong.  Did about 4 inch worms in a row, skipped one, did the last... felt good.. kept going.  But probably by the time we were just about done with the first round of all the exercises, I broke.  It just released all the emotions and I sobbed.  I think I'm just weird.  Like, I don't think that's normal...  But, it's me.  Anyhow, I tried to regain my composure....which only semi worked... but I did finish it.  

The weekend was great though -- Kelly & Laine came into town on Friday night!  That was amazing.  They are the best.  Our girls are pretty much the same person.  They are so damn cute together.  Saturday was great - we did our Tiny Lions party. Had so many adorable cats walking around and mingling during the party.  Tippy was the star of the show.  He was awesome!!
  

Sunday was our great big day at Great Lakes... Sealife, Legoland, and Rainforest.  Claire had an amazing time.  That made my day.  The girls all had so much fun.  

Yesterday, as I said before, we made up Cardio Flow.  Last night we also got in our regularly scheduled Booty Day.  So that was good.  Food consumption was not great by any means.  I had a few cupcakes, some cake, pasta salad, etc. over the weekend, but am committed to getting back at it today!  WATER WATER WATER!  Yesterday I killed it with the workouts.  I wasn't going to weigh today - not for a few days - but I'm a glutton for punishment and did anyway.  It wasn't bad!  Granted, I'm sure some of my weekend still needs to catch up with me, but I'll live.  Life happens.  There's always going to be something. There will always be a party, an occasion, a reason we slip...  I've learned that I cannot be so restrictive in what I'm doing that I ALWAYS say no.  It backfires for me.  I can't go full keto or give up all of any one thing.  If I do, and I slip - I will feel guilty and continue down that slippery slope.  I want to succeed.  I want to be a success story that someone in my position looks at and says "Wow, maybe I CAN do this..."  I want to be that person.  

June should be a calmer month for me.  We still have something almost every weekend but it shouldn't be too bad.  I will celebrate my birthday... I will enjoy the bridal shower and going away party... I will have a great time at game night... but none of those things will make me stop.  I may lose slower. It will take longer.  But it is the right way for me.  As much as I dread our workouts sometimes...I love them too. [most of them..lol]  Tonight I'm going to do Cardio Drumming and then come home and do our 80DO workout.  We've got this.  I've got a great partner and great friends. Lots of support.  I am blessed!
