Feeling Good

I did manage to get in some exercise yesterday after my hydro interruption that set my schedule a miss.
I started out with trying to do a 2 Mile Walk Away the Pounds DVD at 3pm but I had a friend stop in at the 1 Mile point so that came to an end. After supper I threw in 30 squats, push-ups and crunches thinking that was going to have to be it for the day.

Once I got the children to bed at 8:30pm I was feeling so tired and grumpy that I thought a good sweaty workout was probably what I needed....it was either that or sit down and eat chips! I choose the workout and put on the 2 Mile Walk DVD again. This time I pushed it through and had a good sweat going when I was done.
I did feel better after but for the record people...I hate exercising at night!

Eating for Tuesday was;
Steel Cut Oats with fresh berries and Almond Breeze for breakfast.
Orange & 1oz. Almonds for morning snack
1/2 can tuna, mixed greens with 1 tbsp. dressing and 7 organic crackers for lunch.
Plain yogurt, fresh pineapple and granola for afternoon pick-up.
Supper was 3 oz. roasted organic chicken, 1/2 sweet potato, 1 cup cabbage and 1/2 green peas.

Wednesday's eats;
Steel Cut Oats, 2 tbsp. flax meal, berries and 1/2 almond breeze.
1oz. cashews and fresh pineapple for mid-morning snack
1 egg and 2 egg whites scrambled with red pepper, onions & spinach sauteed and all wrapped up in a Whole Wheat wrap for lunch.
Afternoon boost was a banana with 1 tbsp. melted natural peanut butter drizzled on top and a handful of granola.
Supper is simmering now and it will be a bowl of Chili.
Tonight while I watch a recorded copy of last nights 'Biggest Loser' I will have a bag of smart pop popcorn...if I need it. I enjoy watching this show so much...I think I cry EVERY episode.

This morning I did the No More Trouble Zones DVD workout before the children woke up!
I love, love, love having it done first thing in the morning!!!
