Another weekend gone by too fast! I hope you had a good one. I know I did! One of the highlights of the weekend was going to a baseball game for hubby’s work picnic. They had fireworks after the game and it was a lot of fun—although incredibly hot!
This morning was a sad one because hubby had to leave again to work at a place a few hours away, so he will be gone all week, but home on Thursday nights for long weekends, for the next month again. It’s no fun, but we’re glad he has a job.
For breakfast, I had cheerios with sliced bananas and milk for 4 points.
Today was the first day of a new schedule for me, so I wanted to try to start it off on the right foot exercise wise. Not to mention, this weekend was not the best for me eating wise. So once hubby left, I headed out for a quick run. I didn’t have a lot of time, but it was enough time for a run. Workout time was 26:56. Total distance was 1.9 miles. I ran about 1.5 miles and unfortunately had to stop running and walk the rest of the way because I thought if I didn’t I was going to poop my pants—yes, I know TMI, but I think those who run know what I’m talking about!! The only good thing about running on a treadmill is close proximity to the bathroom if you need it, but unfortunately I was outside and way too far from home! lol I burned 302 calories. Whoohoo! It was a HOT one out there this morning! At 5:45 AM it was already 78 degrees with 83% humidity—another reason I wanted to get a run in this morning because I don’t think it would even be healthy to run in the heat that came later!
This was my first run sporting my pink shoelaces that Fit Approach sent to me for their Sweat Pink Movement. Love it!
Before signing in to work, I whipped up an iced latte for 1 point. I spotted this Almond Joy creamer at the grocery store and it is SOOOOOOO good!
I also snacked on some cinnamon almonds for 5 points.
On my first break, I snacked on a boiled egg for 2 points.
For lunch, I had a bagel thin egg white beaters sandwich with roasted zucchini for 9 points.
And for dessert, I had a Skinny Cow Peanut Butter Heavenly Crisp for 3 points.
These are very good! Have you tried them yet?
On my last break, I had a bowl of fruit for 0 points.
And finally work was over for the day. I spent some time cleaning, doing laundry, and the miscellaneous “chores” that hubby usually does.
For supper, I had a salad made up of lettuce, BBQ sauce, leftover pork chop, pecans, feta and tomatoes for 6 points.
One of my favorite salads!
For dessert, I had SF chocolate pudding topped with sliced bananas and Cool Whip for 2 points.
I wanted to make my supper a little more filling, so that’s why I added the banana—and it helped.
After supper, I headed outside to water the flowers and the garden. Wow it was hot out there! I barely moved and came into the house soaked in sweat. It was 95 degrees with 60% humidity—whew!
Tonight I’m going to relax and find a good show or movie to watch. Something girly since hubby isn’t here.
I have 1 point left for the day. I’ll probably have a snack of some kind, but not sure what yet!
