The good, the bad... and the lazy

Well, shall I start with the bad news? I didn’t get on the treadmill this morning.

The good news? I took melatonin last night around 9pm and by 10:30 I was out like a light and slept through until this morning at 7am. My alarm went off at 5:30 and I just couldn’t get up. I’ve heard melatonin isn’t supposed to leave you groggy in the morning. Once I finally got up I didn’t feel groggy… it was just a matter of getting up! I think it could be 1 of 2 things. Either I took more melatonin than I needed to OR I was just still making up for only getting 2 hours of sleep the night before. Who knows. I will take less tonight and see what happens!

What am I eating today?

Breakfast – 1 cup raisin bran (2), ½ cup skim milk (1), 2 pieces weight watchers bread (1), 2 tsp light PB (1)

Lunch – 2 weight watcher wraps (2), with a cool mixture recipe I got from kraftfoods.com – lettuce, red pepper, red onion, cheddar cheese, shredded carrots (I added the carrots) (2pts for the cheese), and I added some FF Italian dressing to the mix… which is where my day turned ugly. You know the Kraft Italian dressing and how it has a top with just a hole in the center? I took the cap off my dressing and went to squirt the dressing into the salad mixture thingy… little did I know the top had come off in the cap of the dressing and I poured on TOOOOO much dressing! I tried to get most of it out, but otherwise I figure it will just marinate throughout the day and I’ll use a fork to strain out the excess dressing as I put the salad on the wrap.

Lunch is also consisting of a vanilla source yogurt (1)

Snack – banana (2) and cheesestring (1)

Dinner – tuna (2) with some red onion and tomato (0), 1 tbsp FF ranch drsg (0), 1 tbsp FF miracle whip (0), with 2 slices rye bread (2), and 30g light cheese (2)

I think I will have a sugar free pudding for dessert... and maybe 100 cal pack of popcorn with BIG BROTHER.

Update - I did go to the doctor and she doesn't feel the prescription is impacting my weight loss at all and basically told me just to stick with it and it will pay off again... okay lady! I'll try!

Holy...look at you, blogging everyday despite your stupid work! I have a feeling that the treadmill will come once you've caught up on your sleep!
Your lunch sounded yummy, despite the extra dressing!! (PS. I do that ALL the time when I have a dressing other than Kraft. I'm so used to that handy little hole and when it's not there...oops!!!)
Hope you have a great OP day!
Good luck with the treadmill :)
