Hi guys!

I am very proud of myself today - exercise wise, I kicked some butt and here's why

: Last night I got MAYBE 2 hours of sleep and was KNACKERED today at work. Adrian and I were supposed to go to the gym together but there was an emergency at his work and he had to stay late and he had school tonight, so we ran out of time. He took the car so I couldn't go by myself BUT I forced myself into my sweats and sports bra and got on the elliptical for AN HOUR!

I told myself I only had to do 20 minutes and I could stop, but I just kept setting myself new little goals (time/calorie wise) and eventually just thought, "might as well go an hour" and I did it!
Anyway, very proud of myself for EXERCISE! Food was, erm, not quite as good.

Breakfast: 2 bites of oatmeal/oat bran with soy milk and canned peaches. Only two bites 'cause SOMETHING was off and it was AWFUL! I was so hurried to get to work, that I had to run out without eating anything else!

Snack: Apple Crisp Granola Bar

Lunch: Forgot my lunch!!

I had an applesauce cup and an almond granola bar in my purse (which I pretty much always do, hee hee) so I ate that. Oy, not good!

Snack: 2 organic, fat free apple newton thingies.

Snack: 4 periogies with 1 tsp of ICBINB.

Dinner: (Now I may have gone a little overboard at dinner, but I'd had almost no "good" food all day!): 1 grilled chicken breast (marinated in balsamic vinigrette) with mushrooms, 1/2 cup of rice, 1/2 cup of peas and corn(together), 1/2 cup of steamed carrots and asparagus(together).

Dessert: 1/4 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Snack: After working out, I had two little grilled strips of chicken.

That brings us to now! Stinky and sweaty and full of about a million litres of water, I feel like a washing machine

. Time to get in the shower and hopefully get a NICE LONG sleep tonight!

Cheers ya'll!
