I Did It

Filed under Day to Day by at 8:56 pm on Jan 05 2009

Well, I feel like I had a successful day. I started out this morning with a breakfast sandwich I made with Eggbeaters, cheese and a Western Alternative bagel.  I tried out a new variety of Eggbeaters. It was yummy and was good to get back to the routine. I tracked everything that I ate. I made my Grandma’s Chickenetti. I am aggravated with myself. I just realized that this is one of my “older” recipes that I haven’t figured nutritional values for. I will try to get that done in the next few days. I love making Chickenetti because it is so easy, everyone loves it, and it makes a huge casserole. I divided the ingredients in half and baked only half and froze the other half so that Chris could pull it out of the freezer next week when I am recovering from my surgery.

I am happy to report that I did get a run in today. My goal was to run 2 miles before I had to get ready for my dentist appointment. I got in the two miles and some extra. I finally had to stop at 2.75 miles because I was running out of time and didn’t want to be late for my appointment. I am a little sore tonight. My plan is to go to the Y tomorrow to get on the elliptical, run on Wednesday, elliptical on Thursday, and Friday be my day off. Sydney & I enjoyed our trip to the Y so much yesterday that I am thinking we might have found a little weekly “date” that just the two of us can do every Sunday afternoon.

I didn’t stick to my measly 18 points. Thankfully I earned 3 APs with my run.  I wasn’t feeling a lot of extra hunger. I just wanted to eat. I guess I got use to eating too much the last few weeks. I think it was more out of stress and was purely emotional. But I did track everything so I feel like I am making progress.

I am beat so I think I am going to call it a night and hopefully get some much needed rest.

    MizFit-Yeah for you for a gym that has childcare on Sundays. Ours doesn’t which is a bummer. But that is OK since Sydney had so much fun.

    Tracking? What is that? :)
    You have inspired me, I will track every bite of food that enters my mouth today.
