Thursday and Friday

I totally forgot to post yesterday for Thursday, so here’s for that and Friday.

On Thursday, I did really well with my calories. My calorie count was 1409!!! Probably the lowest I’ve had it end up in a long time. I ended up deciding that I wanted to hang out with Jeff instead of going to the gym, so I did the Wii Free step while we watched a TV show. I think I’m going to stop doing that program though because every time I use the balance board, I end up with very sore shins for the next 2 or 3 days, and I think that I’m straining a muscle which occasionally prevents me from doing more exercise for a couple of days. It probably happens because I can’t wear shoes on the balance board, and that’s likely affecting my steps. So I decided that I’m going to get a real step and do it myself on that. I’m kind of looking forward to it!

On Friday, Jeff and I agreed to go out for our dinner, since we had both worked out 5 times. I ate a little less throughout the day so that I could splurge a little bit, but I definitely didn’t starve myself. We went to On the Border (they have great food) and my total calorie count for the day was 1510!!! I can’t believe I did it, but I did!!! It was awesome!

I got up at 11 this morning, and figured that even though I was getting up late, I should eat breakfast, so I made myself a bowl of oatmeal with skim milk and 1 T. of maple syrup. It was pretty good. Then to pair with the weather, I had some tea. Really, a nice morning!

We just decided we’re going to the beach for the night so I have to keep this short. I’m going to bring my weights and a video with me so I can still get my exercise in.

Hope you have a great weekend!
