Good Morning!!
I'm sorry that I haven't been around much!! Work has become quite bizarre over the past week, so I will be in and out at odd times here!
I had a "pig-out" day yesterday...I was doing really well until about 2:00pm, when I decided to have the whole bag of "Butter Lovers" popcorn...then I had a granola bar...of course, I had to follow that up with a piece of chocolate cake & some ice cream...I had a piece of ham & some carrots for dinner...oh, then I had a snack bag of fudge-stripe cookies!!! I'm sure my 30-minute walk at lunch & 30-minutes on the elliptical after work didn't even begin to touch all of that!!!! I wasn't eating emotionally yesterday, it was more of a case of no self-control...I saw food and I ate it!!
Today I'm having this nasty oatmeal (low-sugar, yuck) for breakfast, a Lean Cuisine for lunch...off to the Y for DDs last beginner (I hope) swimming session...then I promised DD I would take her to Wendy's for dinner to celebrate (she could have asked for Red Lobster, Chili's...but, no...WENDY'S).
I should be OP today & should get in 30 minutes of cardio and 20-30 minutes of strength training...I'm hoping that the fact that there is a big chocolate cake two offices down from mine doesn't sabotage me...I AM WEAK!! I love chocolate...
I took the St. Patty's Day challenge...I signed up for 8 pounds to lose between Valentine's & St. Patty's...only lost 4.5 lbs, but I am considering that a HUGE SUCCESS!!! I think my next challenge will be to lose 5 lbs. between St. Patty's Day and April 29...I found out yesterday that one of my all-time favorite rock bands, the Black Crowes, will be coming to Knoxville on April 29!!! Back before DD was born, I was in the music biz, so I went to alot of shows...since DD, I have been to about 5 shows in almost 5 years! I am as giddy as a schoolgirl about this show!!
I would like to fit into a pair of Ralph Lauren jeans that were pre-DD by the show...right now, I can get them zipped and buttoned...can't move, bend or breathe, though...so that is my goal...5lbs & those jeans should be close enough to wearable that I could suffer through it to wear them to the concert!!!
It's all about the small things...
On to trip planning...I'm awfully chatty this morning...I believe our itinerary is going to shape up as follows:
Nov. 30-Wed-arrive at WDW-AKL, dinner at Boma
Dec. 1-Thu-AK in the AM; dinner at LTT;
MVMCP
Dec. 2-Fri-MK with CP for lunch; Campfire at FW
Dec. 3-Sat-MK with CRT sometime
Dec. 4-Sun-breakfast at CM before flying home
I hope that leaves us some breathing room...I'm probably going overboard on the character meals, but I figure if we need to have a sit down meal once a day to rest & relax (?), we might as well have characters there...
Have a super day!!!
Good job on the workout. I love when the program goes between going forwards and backwards. I think it is a good workout. Good luck at the gym tonight.
