Got My Groove Back!

Well, today was somewhat productive. If you overlook the fact that I don't yet have my dishes done, my laundry isn't put away, and my floors weren't washed... oh, and I have yet to wrap up my parent groups (I have to do my follow up calls), put my latest photos of Simon onto the computer, send in a million digital photos to be printed... If you overlook all of that and focus on what I DID do today - TWO 30min biggest loser workouts (cardio max AND power sculpting), 45min on the treadmill (with the speed increased yet again!), plus walked around the mall for an hour... I would say my activity level is one to be proud of today. I also managed to avoid eating as much as I ate yesterday.

Light bulb moment - the more active I stay, the less appetite I have and less desire to do mindless snacking.

Here's what I've eaten today:
BF - weight control oatmeal (2), yogurt (1)
Snack - cheese string (1)
Lunch - sundried tomato flatout wrap (1), 1 tbsp garden cream cheese (1), spinach (0), tomato (0), 2 turkey slices (1), 1 tbsp ff italian (0), SF chocolate pudding (1)
Dinner - Bourbon Street Grill from the mall, consisting of (and points are all estimates) bourbon chicken (4 oz? 7pts with sauce?), 1/2 c mashed potatoes (6?), grilled vegetables, no sauce (0)
Snack - nil. We ate dinner early tonight and I thought I'd be hungry... but I did a biggest loser workout AND 45min on the treadmill... so no time for snacking, because now it's too late to eat (unless I want to dream that someone is trying to kill me. ummm let me think - NO thank you!)

Happy March Break to all. I may be the only sucker at work working the entire week as it turns out... It appears my supervisor allowed 4 out of 7 of us off... this could be a LONG week!! I think I will go make hummus now and then try to call it a night and adjust to the time shift.

Congrats on the grooving!! That's awesome that you were so active. I definitely need to take a page from that book. There's too much freakin' snow!! I'm going to have to go somewhere and find a freakin' treadmill.
Anyway, happy Monday!! Hope work isn't too crazy this week :)
