WEEKENDS SUCK!
Oh my gosh! I know that it can be hard during the weekdays to stay away from bad foods and to not scrounge around in the kitchen looking for things to snack on but sakes alive! it is HARD on the weekends! I'd say almost impossible! Thankfully the only remotely snacky thing I could find was a box of Wheat Thins and that is defnitely a lot thinner now that I've had a go at it...
Saturday morning started off with DH making himself a scrumptious breakfast consisting of eggs, bacon and toast and I got to wake up to the mouthwatering smell of it all... Thanks to my selfless husband I was spared the temptation of bacon since he ate it all :-P (lol) and decided to workout instead of pigging out. I knew that if I ate before I worked out then it just wouldn't get done. So, I grudgingly pulled myself away from the computer and the couch and Matt and I headed over to the school soccer fields and did about ten minutes of sprints. Wow, I was dead on my feet. Then I made a delicious unhealthy lunch and we walked to post (about 35 minutes at a brisk walk) and got a few essentials (new high-top converse all-stars for Luke) and walked home. Then I made crockpot orange chicken for dinner and went over to a friends house to watch some nerdy shows that I haven't seen in a while. So, all in all, not a bad day.
Sunday, however, was torture. If you didn't already know, I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and we believe in dedicating Sundays to family time and staying in the home and not working. Well, this proved to be quite the challenge since I chose not to exercise on Sundays and I had a kitchen full of food. We watched a few movies (The RM and Cars 2) and I made spaghetti for dinner and I tried to drink and drnk and drink but the urge to snack was too great and I broke down around 7:00 and together Matt and I along with Luke ate almost an entire box of Wheat Thins. 8-O Yeah, I'm already planning on tomorrow being MUCH better. I'm going to the gym with Latasha and I'm gonna run my bum off! Hopefully through the course of the week I can figure out a way to make weekends go a little more smoothly. Wish me luck!
This weekend kicked my butt. Lol Saturday I made Pepperoni and mozzarella cheese Stromboli and had 4 big slices, and it was an off day for the workout I'm doing. I guess my positive on that is that I didn't dip the Stromboli in ranch like I normally would have. . .
ReplyDeleteAnyway, here's to a new week! You'll do great!
