Last night I ended up being very good...considering I was feeling very snacky, I just made a couple slices of whole wheat toast with Becel and curled up with a good book and went to bed early. It was very nice :)
This morning I just couldn't bring myself to go to the gym. BUT...I know I committed to doing so both today and tomorrow...so instead, I tried to think of what I could do that would count as great exercise, but also be fun.
First, my hubby, baby and myself went for an excellent walk down a nature trail! It was only about 30 minutes long...but it was hilly and my legs burned at I was even out of breath after one particularly large hill! Then we got home...and within minutes, put our swimsuits on and went for a nice swim in the pool. Not only was it a ton of fun to splash around with my son (17 months old)...but I also did a bunch of laps while hubby played with him. I even snuck 10 minutes in the hot tub :)
Now, we've just finished lunch...babe is about to nap, and I'm just going to relax for a bit and rest my body! I feel great.
It was really nice to be so active and to get outdoors and away from our living room and television.
Tonight I'm bringing dinner to my mom-in-laws. I'm making a home made shephards pie....yum. I'll make sure I have a very modest portion and that I drink lots of water!!!
For a healthy snack tonight I have preplanned humus and some rice crackers...yum.
I'm feeling great and in control...and it's awesome!!!
Cheers and enjoy the rest of the weekend!!!
Jamie
