Not entirely my fault, but I've been extremely bad this weekend at logging in. This is mostly due to the fact that I was visiting friends in Minnesota, staying with said friends, and had extremely limited access to the internet. I arrived back Monday night, and probably should have logged in then, but.... I didn't. Then yesterday, a million things to do, but it just didn't happen.
I also have been terrible in my eating habits. I think that the average stranger reading this blog probably thinks I'm not trying at all. I am. I really am. But I'm realizing I have a stressful life, and bad willpower, and a lot of temptations. I HAVE to figure out how to make some changes in my life that will lead to healthier options, more exercise, and a better way of life. How to do this? I don't really know, other than to just bull through it, and keep trying.
I'll do my best to track my past few days. I'm sure I'll miss a LOT. Assume that any holes are probably filled with something disgusting and fried.
Saturday:
Breakfast-
Bacon Egg and Cheese stromboli at the airport -awesome breakfast options, I should point out, but yes, I did walk right by the yogurt and granola, and the fruit cup. To my defense, the fruit cup looked like it had been sitting there since yesterday.
Lunch-
Famous Dave's pork sandwich with baked beans, fries, and mac and cheese and a diet coke
Dinner-
1/2 Jimmy John's club tuna sandwich
Cheetos single serve bag
pickles- One of my hostesses makes these crazy homemade pickles that are seriously like crack. SOOOOO good. I literally had 8 pickles (they're small, I swear)
a few small pieces of candy (leftover halloween)
a glass of Dr. Pepper
Exercise-
Schlepping my bag around the airport
Walking all over the Mall of America
15m on elliptical
1.5 miles on the treadmill at 6.0 mph
Sunday:
Breakfast-
French toast- 2 slices
raspberries
orange juice
Lunch- This was at the Metrodome (we took in the Vikings game), so assume this was all a kajillion calories each
2 beers - proudly, the first was at 10:30 am. um....
1/2 serving of deep fried cheese curds
1 corn dog
2 slices of a diGiorno pepperoni pizza
a couple handfuls of Kettle Corn
Dinner-
1 cheeseburger
1/2 bratwurst
pickles (couldn't stay away!)
chips
1 glass strawberry soda
1 dilly bar
Exercise-
Walking around Minneapolis and the Metrodome, Cheering for the Vikings (it was a really close game, you gotta burn calories jumping up and down and screaming, right?)
Monday:
Breakfast-
1 long john donut- no filling. Yeah right, like a plain long john is SOOO much healthier than a cream filled one. Who am I kidding?
1 banana
Lunch-
Chinese buffet- really, what more is there to say?
small dish of soft serve swirl
Dinner-
1 bag of airplane peanuts
1 small bag of fritos
Exercise-
Not much. Schlepping a bag thru the airport, airplane and the subway
Tuesday:
Breakfast-
yogurt w/granola
bowl of special K w/skim milk
Lunch-
Chicken and mozzarella wrap with lettuce, tomato and salsa
chips
Dinner-
5 meatballs (they're mini- an appetizer type meatball)
2 peanut butter balls
Exercise-
25m walking and running 2 miles on the treadmill
30 minutes on the elliptical at high level
I think it's fairly well accurate. I really didn't snack much over the past few days, because I've been way too busy. I suppose that's good. I actually feel that looking back on this, it's not quite as terrible as I thought. Certainly not promoting weight loss, but maybe not encouraging gain.
