On the exercise/eating/weight front, I have been doing my best to keep my calorie counts low and my exertion high. This morning I was 130.8 and was unable to go to the gym because of a 6-inch snowfall. Tomorrow, I am going to go early, run at least a 5k before my class and then sweat it out in my bursting class. Hopefully, by Wednesday I will be just under 130 and feel a bit better about myself.
Today, I had soy yogurt with a kiwi, some strawberries and a sprinkling of rice crispies on top. I snacked on some Trader Joe's peanut butter-filled pretzels, but I've safely stashed them away so they will no longer tempt me. I have go to work soon anyway, and I will just bring my stash of healthy drinks (green tea, water, and a low cal/low sodium instant miso packet). For dinner, I will probably have broccoli slaw or a big bowl of air-popped popcorn.
Yesterday, I spent the entire afternoon picking up a beautiful china cabinet from my godfather and cleaning my room and getting the furniture arranged. I am using the cabinet as my dresser and it is fabulous! It fits all of my clothes, dvds, jewelry box, and toiletry items. Yes, I know it clashes with the wall color, but I plan on re-finishing it this summer and soon I am going to put fabric behind the doors.
I plan on painting it sort of like the dresser on the left and putting fabric like the armoire on the right, if that makes sense...
Now, I am searching for a floor mirror - the kind that swivels on a stand, but clearly I don't have $300 for one... so craigslist, here I come!
Enough of my rambling - I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. Try to fill your tummies with health fruits and vegetables today and keep strong and focused... we can do this together
