Tuesday's Travels
Almost 2 days under my belt! I was a little discouraged this morning when I weighed but I didn't let it get me down. I am banning weighing during the week. For now on I can only weigh on my weigh-in day (Saturday or Sunday morning).
I am still struggling with the headache. I definitely think it is "food" related. Dinner is usually the biggest meal I eat and after I eat dinner my h-ache is gone. Common sense would tell me to eat a bigger brekkie but I do good just to eat brekkie let alone some huge meal. Today I did have 2 Kashi waffles with a veggie sausage patty and an apple with a tbsp of PB. It seemed to hold me over longer but I still got a headache.
I was smart last night. I made today's lunch and morning and afternoon snack. Again preparation is everything. I made a turkey sandwich and had yellow pepper strips with hummus, yougurt, v-8, and 2 rice cakes with 1tbsp PB. For my morning snack I had a SB Bar. I am in the car a total of 3 hours a day on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I have to eat in my car and those seemed to be a no fuss lunch. It was so nice to sit in my car, roll down the windows and enjoy the breeze. Its been lovely here lately. The university I go to has bells that toll on the hour and at noon they ring a hymn. I can't even remember the name of it at the moment. I just have too much stuff running through my head. Anyway. It was just so nice to take 30 minutes sit there, eat my lunch and enjoy nature and the tolling of the bells.
After I got home from school I did my usual domestic duties. I even manged to cook dinner for my boys...*SHOCKED* Its amazing what taking care of yourself first will do. It wasn't anything spectacular just chicken and roasties. I had salmon and brocoli and carrots. I even had help :) (see picture below)
I am taking 15 minutes to blog and then at 6:30 or so I am going to go for a walk to get my 30 minutes of activity in. Our neighborhood is hosting a "night out" and its tonight. Maybe I will get to meet a few of the neighbors. Anywho. Things are going well it seems. I have found that my attitude and preparation are key players with me.
I had a question in regards to what fit n' fresh was and here is a link to what I was talking about (click here) and here is the blurb they have on the website:

I am going to go ahead and order a couple of things. I recieved some giftcards for my birthday and I will treat myself to a few. I will let you know how they work out. Hopefully well!
Have a wonderful evening. Thank you to all who welcomed me back! (((((HUGS))))
