busy, busy, busy

These coming two weeks will be a real challenge for my training plan. My sister is visiting and of course I want to spent as much time with her as possible. At the same time I'm very busy at work as I have a new colleague and I need to work him in and also do my own job. Usually that wouldn't be a problem I would just do some late nights, but at the moment I would really like to get home early to spent time with my sister. Keeping up with my training plan is much more difficult now then it was last week when all I had to do is work 9 hours a day and train 1 hour a day. That still left plenty of time to just relax and do nothing. But today, for example, I got up at 6, went to the gym and had a 1 hour workout. at 9 I was at work, at 6.15pm I left and rushed to my Weight Watchers Meeting. I didn't stay for the meeting but I wanted to weight in to make sure I'm not dropping the ball now that things are a bit hectic. At 6.40 I was home, got changed and then me and my sister went to a shipping mal to have dinner and do some shopping. It was a fun day, but now I'm really tired. So keeping this up for the next two weeks is gonna be difficult.
That makes me appreciate how easy things are for me in some way. I've been reading about some other people who are training for a half marathon and want to lose weight and some of them also have families to look after. I imagine that eating and living healthy is much more difficult when the changes you make in your life affect other people a lot and not all of these people might always be supportive. For me its all just about me. I don't have to consider a family or anyone else. I just have to plan and schedule my day and food and that's it. So I have A LOT of respect for those women that manage to do this while also looking after their kids and husbands and all that.
Well, so far I've been doing good and have sticked to my training plan and healthy diet. But next Monday and Tuesday I'm of work and we will go for a long weekend trip. I hope I will be able to at least stick to the healthy diet. I will let you know how it all works out.
