2/24

Today I had my cake (and my ice cream) and ate it too.  It was good--not great.  What was great was watching my boy demolish his cake... funny and messy but beyond adorable.  I've been trying to balance today out a bit by drinking plenty of water because I think perhaps that's what's been wrong with me on Mondays.  I don't eat as well or drink as much water in general on the weekends and it hits hard.  However, this weekend I changed that...at least the water drinking part.  Yesterday I cleaned all day (which  will probably go down as my 200+ minutes of exercise this week) and I filled up my water glass at every available opportunity.  I had a good eating day until I fixed supper but I felt that I had earned it with all my hard work!  Today was oatmeal for breakfast, mexican (although less than usual) for lunch, cake and ice cream mid-afternoon and frozen pizza with fritos for supper.  Nothing other than water to drink though, and a lot more of it than on a regular weekend.

Weigh in on Tuesday... we'll see how it goes.  I'm not expecting the big numbers like I had on the 15th but then the second is never as good as the first is it?  Hopefully it will be enough to keep me motivated to continue, but then again, I'm not sure I need motivating--I've felt better and am pretty happy with the clothes fitting better so I think I'll keep on keeping on.

Cameron also cleaned this weekend and thankfully, I think my elliptical is almost completely uncovered!  That means that perhaps I will quit making excuses for not exercising and actually exercise!!  I'll let you know how that goes!  :)
