Dang! That's a legit blizzard!
Though it wasn't a long one, Karlee and I took a walk around the neighborhood in the snow. We only made it around one lap, but the snow made walking a bigger challenge than usual! We were pretty cold by the time we got back in, but it was nice to get out in it. If only we had a sled! Here's a snowman one of our neighbors made:
We intended to make our own, but by the time we got out, the sleet had created a hard layer of ice on top of the snow, making it pretty hard to work with. So we just admired the neighbors' efforts. :)
Eating wasn't exceptionally good or bad today. I'm realizing that it's going to be harder than I thought to curb the not-so-great habits I descended into over the holidays (namely, eating without keeping track), so I'm going to have to get strict and start keeping a close eye on what I'm munching on. Especially today, being trapped inside and thus in extra danger of bored-fueled munchie feeling, I had a hard time putting a cap on it. It didn't help that I hadn't taken my ADD pills. I didn't go over my calories, but I didn't make my best choices either. So that's something to work on.
Tomorrow I plan to trudge down to the gym and get some real exercise. Or maybe do another dvd workout! We'll see how it goes.
Today's food:
Breakfast
Cascadian Farms Cinnamon Crunch - 270
Lunch
Low-carb bread w/ reduced fat peanut butter - 200
Dinner
Goat cheese omelette - 180
Veggie sausage - 160
Snacks
1 tbsp reduced fat peanut butter - 100
Sugar free pudding - 60
Smart balance popcorn - 100
Whole grain cheerios - 200
Total: 1270
No fruits or veggies! For shame! I didn't really get any at the grocery as Kroger was out of almost everything. So as soon as I can get out of the house I'm going to head back to get some fresh fruits and veggies. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day, for both eating and exercise!

Hey Babe. Glad you're getting back into a routine. Will we ever get back to school? I'm enjoying this. I recovered the chairs in kitchen, hung a pic in your room and gave you a new lamp. It looks very cozy in your room. See you soon. Get some fruit! :)
PS. Thrilled to hear that Karly is getting on a health kick. That will help to encourage each other and have an exercise buddy. Good luck. xoxo
Woo-hoo! You're back. Happy New Year.
And congratulations on maintaining your weight over the holidays! That's fabulous!!
Hope you're staying warm.
I made a big pot of soup yesterday. Wish I could feed you some.
We keep some frozen veggies around just in case of no fresh ones. There are so many wonderful combination packs. Plus I always have edamame and peas in the freezer too. They make a good combo as well. Stir-frys with a frozen veggie pack and some chicken or pork and a few tablespoons of a sauce or soy sauce make a quick, delicious meal.
There are more and more decent frozen entrees too. I tried a Kashi Chicken with Lemongrass recently which was quite tasty.
I'm thrilled to hear that Karlee may not put temptation in front of you as often. It's hard to turn down a warm cookie. But out of sight, out of mind.
Keep up your momentum! And get some exercise too.
love ya.
