Ahh, Sunday. I just want to curl up with a good book! And I will -- eventually. First I will do light workout. Want to know my excuse for keeping it light? I have to go out to supper tonight, and I don't want to get all sweaty, and have to shower again. I know-- shame on me!
Valentine's day is sabotaging (sp?) me! Tonight -- my son's youth group at church has a lasagne supper. And, I have to make cookies for my other son and daughter to take to school on Valentine's day. Plus, I teach preschool, so they will all give me a bunch of candy! HELP!!!
I need the most strength to resist the cookies. I'm going to make cut out hearts, with frosting. They are so good -- if I do say so myself! So, I'm promising myself, and all of you, that I will NOT eat a cookie! ( Not even if it's broken!!!) I will probably need to taste a little bit of frosting, to make sure it tastes right, but I am going to resist. I have done it with chocolate chip ( not even a bite of dough!) and I can do it with these to.
I am going to enjoy the supper tonight. It is my valentine's dinner! I'm just going to try and leave some on my plate.
Goals for the week --- get a decent scale-- like the weight watchers one, I read about here.
-Up the fruit and veggie intake.
-Reduce the carbs ( hardest -- I love bread!) make carbs whole grain, healthy.....
I can't give up diet soda though! Why is it so bad? Why are so many giving it up? Maybe I don't want to know!!!!)
- resist all sweet and sugary valentine treats. Oh shoot-- we are having valentine cookies, for a snack at preschool, on Tuesday. I will have to eat @ of them! Ok, this is not going back on my promise, because these are not the cookies I made. The problem with the cookies I made, is that I will eat way more than 2, if I start eating them. How about if I don't eat the whole cookie, each time? Just half? Yah, that's what I'll do.
- Strenuous work out Monday, and Wednesday ( my days off) Walking and light stretching, conditioning, Tues, Thurs, Fri.... Weekends-- do what I can...
-Drink more water and... hmm.. I can't say it..... cut back on.......(nooooo!!!) the diet soda... AACKKK!! who said that???? Me???? What am I thinking?
But seriously, I don't know what is so bad about diet soda, but I'm quite sure water is better. I do need to drink more water, and if I do that, then I should drink less soda, right?? Right??? RIGHT!!!!
Again -- this is really long.. to anyone who read it all -- you're quite a trooper! Thanks for your time and support.
