Marathon Mom

A.M. weight: 153.6 (down about 4 pounds from pre-vacation. Surprising. And awesome!)

Breakfast: small box of purple peeps… not off to the best start, am I?! I was blindsided when I walked into work this morning and my mom gave me a box of them and one of pink bunny peeps. The pink bunnies are in the upstairs freezer at work now. See, I only ate one of the boxes - so I AM off to a good start. That shows restraint, damn it!!

Morning snack: white chocolate & strawberries yoplait - totally awesome! I love yoplaits flavors! I could eat a dozen of them… wait, maybe that’s not such a good thing.

Lunch: will be half a veggie delight from Subway on their whole grain wheat bread

Afternoon snack: will be red grapes, couple of handfuls

Dinner: will be other half of veggie delight sub

Did not make it to the gym today. Did not bring gym bag with workout clothes (cause it’s still half packed with my campfire smoke smelling vacation clothes. I should really empty it out and wash everything.)

When I get home from work tonite, I promised my daughter a trip to Borders book store. When we get home, I’m sure I’ll try to come up with a half-dozen reasons why I can’t get on the treadmill. I really really really need to get my ass on that treadmill!!

UPDATE: just now leaving work. Totally stuck to the food plan! I’m off to Borders and then I WILL get my ass on that gosh darn treadmill!!

UPDATE: Well, I suck. I had a mocha at the bookstore cafe. And then parts of some chocolate chip cookies, a cinnamon roll and a scone that my kids got. And no treadmill of course cause we got home a little before 9pm.

I did pick up a copy of Jillian Michaels new book Master Your Metabolism and her new box set Hot Bod in a Box… too bad that just owning and reading them isn’t enough. Just like the gym and Weight Watchers memberships. I need to pull my head out and get moving already.

Tomorrow is a new day - thank goodness. I’m embracing that anyway!!
