Food and exercise for today
Journal August 20th, 2008Breakfast: I had a mishap today. My oatmeal over flowed in the mircowave while cooking so I ended up with maybe half of what a serving actually is. I’m still going to count the whole points though: Peaches and Cream Oatmeal - 4
Lunch: 2 slices whole wheat bread - 3; 3oz tuna w/ 1 tbsp f/f mayonase - 1; taco soup - 1; sugar free jello - 0
Snack: small mini bag of 94% fat free popcorn — I think its’ only 1 or 2 points
Dinner: TBD. I don’t remember what I am planning on fixing tonight.
Gym: didn’t go this morning since i didn’t know what the weather was going to be like. Going tonight after work. Not sure what I’m going to do since I can barely walk. My calf muscles are so sore. They feel as if they are contracted and can’t relax. Vicodan anyone? I am going to try to run on the treadmill, but it may end up being a slow walk.
EDITED TO ADD DINNER: Okay, here’s where it went downhill. I was so hungry when I got home from the gym. I started mindlessly snacking. Not that it was easy. I don’t keep a lot of snack food in the house…but I had cheese. MMMM, cheese. Anyway, hubby was still at work because of network issues (stupid storm) so he wanted me to just order pizza. Now, normally I wouldn’t. I would have cooked. But I have been CRAVING pizza for awhile, so I ordered some. I tried to restrain myself though. I had 2 slices with cheese and tomatoes (of course they were stuffed crust), 1 breadstick (instead of my normal 2 or 3), and only 2 of the new Hershey Chocolate Dunker things that came wit the meal. Let me tell you, those things are the DEVIL!! They tasted just like a chocolate croissant!! I tried 2, gave some to Jase in his lunch today and made hubby throw the rest away. I could have eaten the whole thing!! Now dinner was not good for me at all BUT I could have done worse. I can eat more than 2 slcies of pizza, and like i said, I could have eaten the entire pan(?) of the Hershey things. I did not leave the table stuffed. I was satisfied. I think that is the best we can do at times. And I got hungry before I went to bed, so I took that as a good sign

Stretch those muscles out and get back on the horse, er, treadmill, as the case may be. How did you fare through the storm?
