This morning, hubby didn’t have to leave so early, so I got up with him. It was nice to have a little time with him before he left for work!
For breakfast, I made us both oats with canned Missouri peaches mixed in along with a cup of 1% milk for 5.5 points. This is one of my favorite ways to eat oats and hubby agreed they were pretty good!
I had time to catch up on blogs and do a little preparing for classes next week. I whipped up an iced coffee for 1.5 points. I got these cups at Younkers (although I couldn’t find them online) for $5.99! They are reusable and dishwasher safe- absolutely perfect for smoothies and iced coffee- especially in the car! I did see something similar at Target for double the price.
It was an absolutely gorgeous today. My office faces the east, so I always enjoy the morning sunlight in my windows! I hear tomorrow is supposed to be very cool- like a high of 66*. It will be perfect weather for the 5k! I am not 100% but I am feeling A LOT better. I will keep up on meds and my inhaler and I should be ready to go in the morning! If I have to walk parts of it, I will. I’m not going to be hard on myself, considering. I’m still nervous though because I don’t want to come in last. I’m also worried that this race is for professional runners or something and I’ll be the only slow one there. lol *sigh* I’m sure I’ll feel better when I get there. :) Hubby and I are going to try running without our iPods (although we’ll bring them in case!). We enjoy talking when we run together, so maybe that will make the race more enjoyable. I will try to do a post on this tomorrow if I get a chance. I want to take pictures but no one is coming to watch us run and I don’t know where I would keep my camera.
For break, I had a pear for 1 point.
For lunch, I was trying to get some veggies in, so I had broccoli, green beans, tuna, and a slice of toast w/ whipped cream cheese for 5 points.
For dessert, I had a red plum for .5 point.
On my last break, I got the car all packed up and ready to go. It was really windy outside! It certainly feels like a Fall day out there- nice and cool. I wonder if I should have packed long sleeves, too?
After work, I decided to surprise hubby and I mowed the lawn. It took me about an hour and that’s a good workout! When he got home, we headed out the door.
We grabbed Subway for supper. I had a 6” Turkey and Ham sub and 1/2 bag of Baked sour cream and onion Lay’s for 7 points.
Later on, we stopped at a gas station and also got some dessert. I had a sugar free caramel pecan cappuccino and 1 little slice of cheesecake (that had nutritional info!) for 10 points.
I still have a 1/2 point left today- so I think I did pretty well! Have a great long weekend!!
