TGIF--I love Fridays! It means I get to sleep in tomorrow (sadly sleeping in for me is getting to sleep until 7:30), and eat a couple of treats (I have to allow myself at least 1-2 little treats on the weekend).
Exercise report:
I woke up at 5 this morning and headed to the rec center for my usual Friday run. It was great. I ran 3.5 miles and did my usual increment/speed up run. I sprinted the last minute like I usually do. It was a nice workout that gave me lots of energy for the rest of the day.
Eating report:
1 Morning Star sausage
1 string cheese
1 Kashi granola bar
2 cups vegetable soup with mozarella
1 string cheese
1 tilapia filet
1 medium sized bowl of salad including cucumbers, tomatoes, and spring mix
lots of ice cream!
It was my daughter's ice cream social at school which was fun--except for the part where I was trying to figure out what to wear. My regular pants still don't fit but I hate wearing my maternity pants! I was so frustrated but I'm hoping to turn a corner soon. I tried really hard to watch it during the day with my sugar intake because I knew I would be having ice cream that night. I think I did pretty well.
Thought for the day:
I think it's OK to have a treat every once in a while as long as you plan in advance and don't find a reason to have a treat every day. Now that the holidays are approaching, try to plan your treats ahead of time and make a commitment that you will not go overboard. I know that I am planning to have my favorite candy bar on Halloween, a piece of pie on Thanksgiving, and a scone with honey butter on Christmas day. I know it might seem a little early to start thinking about that stuff now, but you will be glad that you planned ahead when faced with all those sugary treats later!
