Hi friends, TGIF! I am feeling refreshed this evening. I went to the gym before lunch today, and because I didn't do a formal workout yesterday I pushed myself to my limits today. At times I had to slow down because my heart rate got a bit too high. I am feeling really motivated to get in shape right now because hubby and I will be celebrating 10 years of marriage next month and we just booked a getaway weekend at a winery yesterday. I have a drawer filled with nothing but bikinis and I would love to comfortably wear one on our mini vacation! Anyway, I felt fabulous for a few hours after today's workout, but when I sat on my couch to make a quick phone call to a customer sheer exhaustion swept over me and I couldn't fathom cooking dinner or doing anything for that matter. The kids were running around like wild little things and so I asked my husband to keep an eye on them so that I could take a short nap before dinner. I ended up sleeping for an hour and a half! It was glorious! Thank you dear husband, if you're reading this. Smiley face. This is what I ate today:
Breakfast (9 pts)
Smoked ham, egg whites and light cheese in a Sara Lee white wheat hamburger bun, a cup of sliced organic strawberries topped with a squirt of fat free Reddi-Wip, and two organic skim milk/fat free hazelnut lattes.
Snack (0 pts)
A banana
Lunch (8 pts)
A "pizza" made with an Alternative whole wheat pita, 1/2 c. leftover crockpot Italian sausage pasta sauce and 1 oz of shredded reduced fat mozzarella cheese.
Dinner (16 pts)
Baked parmesan & panko crusted chicken breast with lemon & thyme, 1/2 c. long grain and wild rice pilaf and a cup or so of organic baby kales dressed with a simple, homemade lemon-herb vinaigrette and a good sprinkle of shredded pecorino romano. Oh yes, and a 6 fl oz glass of moscato.
I used exactly 33 points of 33 points today and still have a bunch of weeklies left for the rest of the weekend. That's all folks, have a great weekend!
