Getting back into it
Yesterday I FINALLY started to work out again. I did the 30 Beginner Shred, and then later 1 started my C25K up again.Ā
Itās been so long since Iāve even tried, so I was surprised to be so ambitious on day one.Ā
Iām feeling it today, thats for sure, But I did get 30 Day BS Day 2 done, and I feel like that will be the extent of my activity today. lol
Iām prepping two 5kmās this yea. Cannonball Crush and The Colour Run, so I have to get active or iām not going to be able to do anything. lol
I just donāt know how to keep up with life....
Itās been ages since Iāve been on here... Iāve gone MIA for a long time... I canāt even commit to say Iām back and Iāll be at it for good this time. I just... donāt know.Ā
My life overall isnātĀ ābusyā but I am feeling overwhelmed... A LOT!
I work 8.5 hours, 5 days a week... so yay, steady income. Itāll 2 years at this job in 2 days, but tbh I hate it there... WELL, I donāt hate the job itself, theres one person who just makes my day unbearable. And I know, ignore them, try not to let it bother me, but when it feels like this person is going out of their way to pick on you, or criticize you, or tell you how to do your job (which by the way, they have NO idea how to do my job), it makes it a little daunting to show up with a smile every day.Ā
Iām getting to the point that I need to talk to my manager about defining my job title. I am/was hired as a Cash Manager. This job entails counting money (safe, deposit, cash drawers, delivery money, etc), scheduling, supporting the cashiers as needed (training how to use the system, how to count a cash drawer), balancing consumables (lottery, stamps, rewards cards), filing paperwork (price accuracy reports, rain checks, sending in reward card applications, sending in coupons redeemed, printing weekly over/short reports), going to the bank to deposit money, or get coin order and get employee calls when they need help/back up.
This is what I am suppose to be doing.Ā
Now imagine: The store you work for is new SO because we arenāt meeting sales per labour hour, we have to cut hours. I was promised at hire I would get 40 hours a week, SO as to not lose hours I now have to work on cash. On cash Iām expected to serve customers, mark down items reaching expiry, put out stock, order bags and register rolls when needed, work on price changes, putting up or taking down sale tags and whatever else the Assistant Managers decide they need help with..... ON TOP OF MY JOB.Ā
Iām essentially doing the job of Cash Manager, Merchandiser, Cashier and Supervisor.
There isnāt enough time in the work day for me to do all these things, and Iām getting behind. Itās enormously frustrating, and to top it off I have that one co-worker who just makes me want to murder them. It just feels like sheās constantly trying to get my in trouble for something (which has yet to actually happen).Ā
and THATāS JUST WHATS GOING ON AT WORK.....Ā
In the past 2 months a lot has changed in my personal life too! My landlords of almost 3 years came to see me and tell me they need to sell the house. This was the worst news. I have an amazing set up where I live and the price is BEYOND reasonable for what I have. I live in a 3 floor townhouse. Most people ask me āHOW can you afford that?ā Well in this city, youāre likely to pay and where from $800-$1500 for a 1-3 bedroom apartment. I nabbed this place for $1050. Itās got 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom (thats the only real downside), finished basement, fully laundry room, spacious kitchen, a really nice sized living room, free pool access in the summer that is right outside my back door, and half a block walk to the bus, which is a 5 minute ride to work. So you can understand why I donāt want to move anywhere. I have it MADE here.Ā
Well my parents pushed me to buy the place.... Not in a YOU HAVE TO DO THIS kind of way, but gave me the tools I needed to see the benefit in owning a house AND not having to move. I should mention that this place also Ā belongs to a condo community. That means I donāt have to mow the lawn or shovel snow AND iām not responsible for the replacement of the roof if needed, and they will cover something like 60-75% of windows and door replacements.Ā
Iāve been wanting to save some money, but even before the purchase, money was tight. Now Iām looking got a roommate, or something to help me save a little.Ā
Soooooo I started a business. An Arbonne business. I sell products I can surely get behind. Safe. Pure. Beneficial. As someone who has cancer in the family, using skin care products that use European Union standards who have banned more than 2900 harmful ingredients from their products is HUGE for me.Ā
Not only do I have Skincare products, but a full line of nutrition products and an amazing makeup line. There is literally something for everyone from men and women to the smallest people in your family.Ā
All products are 100% vegan certified, gluten free, kosher. This is something I think is so important.Ā

If you made it this far... sorry for the long update....
Raise your hand if you've ever felt personally victimized by 2016
Iām just so sad.... all the time...
Over the last few months my depression has gotten such a huge hold on me. Iāve let it drag me down farther and farther.Ā
Some days areĀ āOkayā and some days iāmĀ āfineā but most days iām justĀ āexistingā. Thatās how Iāve been feeling a lot lately.
My depression grabbed me really tight about 3-4 months ago and I did some really shitty things and I hurt some really important people. Iāve been working really hard to get myself better, but I know that having a mental illness will be something Iāll have to life with for the rest of my life.Ā
I had to go back on medication. I think itās best.Ā
After I hurt my best friend and we worked things out I got a little better for a bit, and about 2 months ago I was consumed by the downward spiral of eating and self loathing and eating more and gaining weight and more self loathing.Ā
I gained 10-15lbs in that time, and Iām still not out of the woods yet. I upād my doseĀ from the half a pill to a full pill (20mg) and started feeling better about myself and my friends, but there are still some aspects of my life that hinder my progress greatly.Ā
Right now, my job is my biggest obstacle. Itās a good job, but theres a lot of little things that turn into clusterfucks very fast, and as an employee coming from another branch of the same company, itās hard to see the fairness when the person in the same job position I am only has to do the work of her position, where iām doing that and 2-4 other positions depending on the day. It make it VERY hard for me to get MY work done, leaving me feeling empty and non-fulfilled.
I know itās theĀ ācoolā thing to say, but 2016 was shit for me, of a lot of reasons. A lot of which iām sure stem from some sort of insecurities, or my depression.
Iām trying set up a plan to help me get back to where I want to be. I want 2017 to be my year. I have SOO many things I want to do, both for personal growth and with family and friends.Ā
Maybe this has turned into a new years resolution, but I think itās good for me to write it down.
Firstly, for my health, in 2017 I want to lose 50lbs. Iām going to TRY to achieve this by getting back on track with being Keto.
Secondly, for my financial stability, Iām going to start 1-2 side businesses. One is a passion project, and the other is an actual business. Both these are something I can work on part time aside from my full time job.
The third thing is doing more things with my friends. This past year Iāve really glued myself to one person, and while sheās my world, I think I need to take some time and make an effort to see all of my friends more than once a year.
Fourth, I want some new tattoos. Some iāve wanted for a while, which are nerd themed, and one thatās just recently struck a chord with me. Iām a huge fan of the show Supernatural, and Jared Padalecki has a campaign called Always Keep Fighting.Ā Itās helped to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention and a bunch of other things. I want to get the words tattooed somewhere on my arm. I found a photo where jared has written āAlways Keep Fightingā and iād like it in his writing. Might sound cheesy,Ā but I think itās perfect.
There are so many things I want to do this year, and I donāt want to waster any time!
I know some days my depression will get the better of me, and some days itāll win, but as long as I āalwaysĀ keep fightingā, thats all that matters.
I love my friends, and I love my family. Now I just need to work on loving ME. and then finding someone else to love ;)
THIS IS WHAT FUCKING HAPPENS WHEN YOU FORGET TO RINSE THE TUB OUT AFTER USING A LUSH INTERGALATIC BATHBOMB!
Heās fine. He got a bath.
Lush glitter is made of seaweed.
Iām a failure....
Well at logging things. Iām still on track with Keto. Iāve lost over 11lbs in just over a week. Iām feeling great
Iāve been a little under the weather the last few days. I donāt know if itās stress or my body switching over to burning fat instead of sugar. Iāve had a slightly upset tummy on and off for a few days. Wednesday being the worst. I throw up and felt like my tummy was just so full of acid.
Iāve been pretty tired. Again, not sure if itās getting into ketosis or stress. My mom and I went shopping yesterday. We left around noon and by 4 I was ready for a nap. When I came home Wednesday from work after being sick, I napped, Thursday I called in sick and didnāt wake up until about 1-2 in the afternoon and Friday and Saturday I didnāt get out of bed until about 10/11 ish.
According to Healthful Pursuit, my ideal Ketone concentration should be between 0.5-3 and that have been every day since I started testing. So I must be doing something right.Ā
I donāt know how true it is, but I read online that itās still possible to have some fast food burgers as long as you arenāt eating the high carb buns, so I tried that and Iām still seeming to be on track.Ā
Iād say over all the only thing that is weird is how little Iāve been eating which I know I need to eat more. I just donāt feel hungry, which is what Iāve heard a lot about when being on Keto, so Itās sometimes hard to remember to eat something.Ā
Iām starting a good portion of meal prep today. I made a HUGE pot of pumpkin soup and plan on doing a broccoli cheddar one later. and maybe a calliflour one tomorrow or maybe tonight.
My 3 day weekend turned into a 4 day weekend because of calling in sick, and to be honest, Iām not mad about it. Itās like a mini vacation, and I needed the down time. Itās been nice.
Wednesday after my nap I went and played Pokemon go with my BFF, Amanda. We took a ferry across the lake and caught a good deal of new Pokemon. Thursday we went and got groceries so I could do my meal prep. I think I spent $40 for enough food to make like 12 servings of pumpkin soup and a bunch of chicken soup, calliflour and broccoli & cheddar soup.
Later thursday my friend Carlie came over and helped me do a MUCH needed clean on the main floor of my house and watch scary movies (The Blair Witch Project (1999)). I have been so down and depressed that Iāve neglected all adult responsibilities, which Iāve been trying to catch up on the last few days. Friday I got to hang out with my mom, and you KNOW your an adult when you buy socks, underwear and new tupperware and itās a successful shopping trip... Later friday night I went to see the new Blair Witch movie with Carlie and my friend Jason.
Today is mega laundry day, and meal prep. BUT itās also been a lazy day. I finished the second season of Daredevil and now am starting Jessica Jones.
Keto Beginning - Day Four
(I'm a little late, but here goes) Today was great....ish I was feeling good for the first time in 3 weeks. I wasn't tired. I wasn't feeling sick to my stomach. I had lots of energy. Everything was good until lunch. I made my meals for lunch and dinner with the expectation that I was going to feel crappy and not be able to stomach food, so back to the soup for lunch and dinner with some nuts in between. The reason I started to feel unwell was that first thing in the morning I noticed my boss is back from holidays. I asked him if he had time to talk, I wanted to talk to him about everything that has been going on with me, my health and work. By lunch we still hadn't had our chat, so I think the anxiety riled me up after lunch making me sick. And when he finally said it was time to have said chat, my heart rate went from around 74 to 119 real fast! I cried, I talked, he listened. He was VERY supportive of everything I had to say. He was so open and understanding, stating that mental health is linked to physical health and that its so important for me to take care of myself. I told him I wanted to temporarily reduce my hours. Maybe 4 days, or 2 hour less shifts. He was 100% okay with that. He was so understanding and thoughtful and helpful. It's like nothing I've ever experienced in a work place. I'm crying typing this because of what he did. We discussed the work side of issues and he agreed with this things I said. It was amazing. I couldn't ask to work for a better person. So my food for the day was blended coconut coffee, almonds, pumpkin soup, pumpkin soup and more almonds. My ketones were 1.2 first thing in the morning and I'm down 6.7lbs!!
