We’re on Poop Patrol
General, June Goal June 4th, 2008Yes, you read it correctly. My 18 month old swallowed a penny last night. So now we are on poop patrol. The daycare can deal with it today, but I did tell them they could save any messy diapers for me if they didn’t see the penny. Hopefully she’ll pass it within 3 days and I won’t have to take her to get xrays or..SURGERY! Keep your fingers crossed!
Went to the gym again last night. Walked for 20 minutes, but ran the last 2 at a 5.0 pace. I felt like I could keep going, but I decided not to push it. Then I did some leg weights. I’ll go tonight to run.
Food:
Breakfast: shredded wheat, f/f milk, 1/2 banana — core
Lunch: white bean and garlic stew, brown rice — core **I probably ate more than I should have, but I was hungry! When you eat breakfast at 6, it’s a LONG time until 11:00. Plus, with the Core Program, it says to eat until you are satisfied. I just finished and I do not feel full or uncomfortable, so I think I’m okay.
Dinner: We ate at Jason’s Deli after working out. They have a salad bar, so I took avantage of that. Lots of lettuce, peppers, onions, broccoli, tomatos, beans, mushrooms. They didn’t have any fat free dressing, so I tried their Low Fat Organic French. Pretty good! I also put a sprinkling of sunflower seeds on it for some good fat. Oh, and I had 2 crispy flatbreads, that were only 1 point a piece. Then I had samplings of strawberry shortcake, some chocolate mousse, and a mini pumpkin muffin. The salad was core besides the seeds and the dressing. I am going to guess that I had 10 points that were not core. That is probably guessing high, but safe. (14/25)
2 hour workout at the gym. My C25k progress is on my C25k page, you can read it there. I did arms, backs, and abs as well. I am sore. I took an ibubrofin when I got home. I am going to take these next 2 days and REST!!! I have volleyball playoffs on Saturday and I need to be ready. Weigh in day is this Friday. I’m a tad nervous.
Oh, and no penny yet.

The good thing is at least from what I hear, pennies and dimes will pass but quarters and nickels may not. So the penny was a good choice at least
My son was about that age when he got into my mom’s purse and put prescription meds in his mouth. It was the worst experience of my life. My mom had made an irresponsible move in taking the meds out that she and my dad would need for the day (along with some tums) and putting them in a ziploc bag. And my little “duke of hazard” pulled her purse off of the bar and got into the bag. Got us a long scary night in the PICU (it all turned out fine, thankfully). Ahh. Motherhood.
My money is on the penny showing up tomorrow. Keep us posted!

Great work with the running. Keep it up.
Heh heh, you’ve brought a whole new meaning to “a penny for your thoughts” for me.
