Weight:155.6

Yesterday I figure (through My Daily Plate) that I ate around 1500 calories. Which mentally has me in sort of a panic because that is a high calorie day for me, which makes two in a row. But I had all really healthy food (except for the two marshmellow ghosts made by the Peep people, but oh how I love those. I had two and gave the rest of the package to the kids since they are gluten and dairy free. So even Sean could enjoy a few.) Yesterday’s menu was full of apples and clementines, a big salad with chik’n strips (meatless chicken like soy protein - delish!) and black beans and corn. The kids had pizza for dinner, so I had a Lean Cuisine BBQ chicken pizza (one of my very favorites!!)

So, when I got on the scale this morning, I shouldn’t have been surprised to see a loss on the scale. But I was. Because I ATE yesterday. And didn’t exercise. I’ve been getting an occasional twinge in my knee and with that 10K looming on Saturday, I’ve decided the best thing I can do is rest it completely until the race.

Even though I’m on day 2 of the challenge, I’m in my rest days. And that feels weird. I’m challenging myself to eat and do nothing! You know, in some ways, that is harder than working out 3 hours and eating a super restrictive diet!!

Speaking of today, I’ve taken the day off work. My two youngest have been home from school all week. Skye is still recovering from her surgery and Sean’s asthma has been in high gear. They are actually both doing fine today. But they missed all week and its Friday. Honestly, I don’t see any point in sending them to school today. So we are all playing hooky and going to see Toy Story 1 & 2 in 3D!!! I also plan to get a little cleaning done, move around some furniture, and set up my sewing center in my bedroom. I’ve been meaning to do that since… uh… April!! Yeah, I am right on top of things! I don’t list procrastination as my biggest vice for nothing!!!

I better get moving. I am like a little kid excited to see Toy Story again!! I absolutely love these movies. And you should have seen me in the theater when I saw the first teaser trailer for Toy Story 3! I literally squealed really loud! I am more excited about that then New Moon, blasphemy I know!! But still true!!

Have a great Friday everyone! TGIF!!
