This past week has been tough. Seven days ago I celebrated my husband’s 40^th birthday with several friends at a surprise party. Immediately following that, I had the stomach flu and spent the next three days with no energy, unable to eat, and general feelings of blah.

I was feeling better by Monday and went back to work but I still haven’t been able to get back on track with my diet, exercise, sleep, and activity level. I miss it.

I’ve been eating shitty food that’s *terrible* for me—and I’ve felt shitty as a result.

I’ve been sleeping terribly—and I’ve felt shitty.

I’ve been skipping the gym because I felt shitty—and I’ve felt even shittier as a result.

I’m honestly not sure how to break out of this cycle and get my life back together. Right now, I definitely feel like things are spiraling downward. Ugh.

If you have prayers and good vibes to spare, send them my way.
