It’s a good week.
2 05 2008I have to say I am pretty proud of myself this week. We’ll see if it pays out in the end. Monday, I didn’t go to the gym, but I made a homemade chile recipe from WW. Delicious! Tuesday, I did go to the gym and it felt great! 50 minutes on the revolving stairs followed by arm and ab work. Wednesay, I went out to dinner with one of my girlfriends, and while it was bad Mexican food, I only ate half of the portion and gave the rest to Trevin. Thursday, I did have McDonald’s for dinner (shame shame shame). Then, as I was gearing up for my “Grey’s/Lost” night. (I was going to my friend Maria’s house to watch it) I was thinking to myself, I need a good snack for the night. But there was nothing in my house. So then I though, I think I will make some cookies. I had a small spoonful of dough and one baked cookie. Now, I know what you are thinking, that doesn’t sound like something I should be proud of. But wait. So then it was time to leave and I was about to throw the cookies in a bag, get in my car, and drive the half mile it takes to get to Maria’s house, but instead, I threw on my Nike’s and ran over there. And after my show, ran home. Today I didn’t eat breakfast. Bad. Ate a few cookies. Bad. Had a WW meal for lunch. Good. And when my friend at work suggested we get icecream for our afternoon snack, I said no and asked her to please take the rest of my cookies away so I was not tempted. AND, I am not anywhere near going over my weekly points. I think I still have like 26! Wahoo!!!
Too bad I’ve been sick the last couple days. Wednesday I had a fairly decent sore throat. Then, Wednesday night, I woke up sweating a cold with a bad fever. Of course I could NOT sleep. So Thursday, I felt horrible. Sore throat, headache, muscle aches, weak. It was like all the symptoms of strep throat, just dialed down. (For those of you who don’t know me, I have chronic strep throat. I get it like 2 or 3 times a year!) But I took a nice dose of Nyquil and a few advil and slept very nicely last night. Feeling much better today!
Hope all of your weeks are going as well as mine!
I can’t resist homeade cookies. That was good to give them away. I don’t know if I could make myself do that.
