Oh yeah so happy it's Friday!  I can't wait to sleep late tomorrow, do homework all day followed by website work.. wooohooo!  A few friends and I are going out to a local hang out tonight to see a local cover band we like a lot.  It should be good times.  The place we are going to have the best wings in the world.  At first when we decided to go I was like "oh yeah WINGS!"  But after doing some thinking last night, I don't think I'm going to get wings.  I will eat a healthy sandwich at home, and then go out.  I will drink a few light beers, I watched something on TV a while back talking about what light beers has the less calories, and Corona light was the number 1 light beer.. So I will drink a few of those, and dance a little bit acting silly and goofy.  It's all about making good decisions, and my good decision today is not eat at home and not get the wings. 

 

We did not go to the gym yesterday. =( I was so exhausted by the time I got home after work.  I even fell asleep on the bus ride home!  I was super starving too!  I think I need to bring more to eat with me to work!  By 4pm I'm starving and holding myself back from hitting the vending machine.  Today I'll buy a banana or orange from our cafe for when that 4 o’clock hunger rolls around.  Last night we had fish.. yum yum.. With broccoli.  Good dinner. 

 

Today after work I have to hit the grocery store.  We need:

Toilet paper

Paper towels

Bananas

Grapes

Breakfast bars

Milk

Lettuce

Dish washer liquid

 

And that's about it.. Nothing major, just little things.

This weekend I plan to pre-pack my lunches like I did for this week.  It makes my mornings so much easier and stress free.  And I'm also able to see what I have for the week to come and what I need.  

 

For the gym.. I'm going to go solo tomorrow.  The BF is working.. So I'll still get my work out in.  Monday we'll start going again.. Mon, Tues, Wed seems to be the routine we like the most so far, so we will keep up on that. 

 

I'll try to post tomorrow as well and check in on everyone.

For foods I have today:

Coffee

Yogurt

Progresso Soup

Special K bar

(See I need to bring more food)

Orange or banana

Dinner- Provolone cheese, ham, lettuce, pickles, mustard, on whole wheat multigrain bread.

Other- 3 or 4 Corona lights.

I love the TGIF picture!

Have a great weekend and good luck with the homework. 

:)

Have fun tonight!! After visting the grocery store I always save a few snacks back so that I can take them to work and put them in my desk. They are "emergency snacks"!! :)

Being Prepared.

That's a smart thing to do - having a plan of action whenever starvation hits you! 

Glad your migraine is gone now!  Whew!!!  I hate those!!

(Love your blog pictures by the way!  Ha-ha!)

Later! 

Rest

Sometimes rest is more important than exercise.  You took care of what your body needed!

I'm with you

I've started pre-packing my lunches too.  It makes a huge difference, I think!  That way, my mornings are less stressful, and I know exactly what I'm putting into my mouth.
