Wednesday 4-25-12


Today was such a gloomy, dreary day.  Were it not for the farmers' market I would not have gone anywhere today.  My husband had a doctor's appointment in the morning and physical therapy in the afternoon so I knew chances were slim of me going to the gym at a desirable time.  While he was at physical therapy and my daughter napped I went ahead and did an at home workout.  I have an awesome video playlist on my Droid that I like to watch while I'm on the elliptical, but I decided to connect my Droid to our tv via HDMI cable and use it to dance my butt off instead.  My son was preoccupied with his educational KPBS games so I had the living room all to myself.  I just copied the dance moves on the videos (as best as I could, haha) or did my own moves when there was no fun choreography to follow, and I wore my heart rate monitor the entire time so I knew how long my workout was.  It was fun!  I miss dancing and my video playlist is perfect for this kind of workout.  (It's got stuff like Katy Perry's "California Gurls", Black Eyed Peas "Let's Get It Started", Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie", No Doubt's "Bathwater" and a whole bunch more.)  After hubby got home and I showered we made a family trip to the farmers' market.  It was a quick trip because the rain started to move in.  Dinner was the perfect comfort food and came out better than expected.  It was divine.  This is what I ate today:

Breakfast (8 pts)
Egg white omelet with Herbes de Provence and 1 oz fresh goat cheese, 2 links turkey sausage and 2 organic skim milk/fat free hazelnut lattes.

Lunch (5 pts)
3 c. organic baby spinach, homemade balsalmic viniagrette, 1 c. sliced organic strawberries, a handful of organic blueberries, 2 Tbsp reduced fat crumbled feta and 15 grams glazed walnuts.

Snack (0 pts)
A banana on the way to the farmer's market.

Dinner (18 pts)
Four cheese baked crab macaroni and cheese (with 2 oz high fiber penne), lightly steamed organic broccoli and a 6 fl oz glass of pinot grigio.

Dessert (2 pts)
Sugar free angel food cake topped with organic raspberries and a dollop of homemade organic crème fraîche.

I used exactly 33 points today! Thanks for reading guys.  Be back tomorrow.
