day 40 round 2

Bagels at work, not even a thing. They smelled good, yeah, but still there really isn't a need there. It's so amazing! Also, everyday at the gym when we're stretching, that must be when Subway next door bakes their bread for the day, because it smells heavenly, isn't that so mean!?!

Instead of having a bagel, I researched recipes to make cream cheese for my sprialized bagels I'm going to make later. And cauliflower pizza crust that I want to make tomorrow night with my mamma.

It feels so good right now. But I also have moment of confusion. Like this week I have been struggling with the feeling of, is it worth it? I have worked so hard to eat clean and workout every morning, and progress is so slow. It's definitely there, but isn't it crazy that it just takes a few weeks to gain it back? And almost triple the time to get clean again? That's so messed up.

But I have to remember it's not all about how my body looks. It's about how my body feels and how I want it to work for the rest of my life. It's worth it to fight off any posibiility for sickness or injuries in my future, but staying clean and healthy now. And as I've learned, it gets easier. It really does. As long as I don't let my mind get the best of me, I know this is worth it.

I had made some crockpot chicken that was SO dry the other week, so last night I made chicken salad with the dry nasty chicken. Home made mayo, celery, apple and chicken! I'm excited to try it!
