TGIThursday!

Yay!  Today is my Friday and I'm not only excited about that, but I have a 4-day weekend ahead of me.. so I'm in a great mood :)
I didn't make it to the gym this morning, I was so exhausted last night I didn't even wake up to the giant thunderstorm or storm sirens!  (probably not a good thing : / ) But, I'm not too concerned b/c I know that I can take a walk with Nora when I get home (weather permitting) or, if I get out of work early enough, hit the gym for a quick cardio killer after work.  We'll see :)
I didn't really eat dinner last night, I just wasn't hungry and I wasn't about to force-feed myself!  Lunch yesterday was SUPER filling so I ended up cooking dinner for Branen and Nora (baked Tilapia, WW pasta salad and sauteed bell peppers and onions) and I just ate a banana with a little peanut butter for "dinner" at around 7:30.  Then, I went to the grocery and came home, put everything away and headed to bed.  When I went to bed, I felt that relief in my legs that tells me I burned a few calories throughout the day.  Probably walking around in 4" platform heels all day, gardening when I get home, cooking, cleaning, and going to the grocery had something to do with it :)
Today we're having a Memorial Day cookout fully equipped with some fun BBQ games for us all to play :)  I'm excited and hoping that there is food that I can eat!  I haven't been as carb-conscious this week as I should have been and with 2 more cookouts sill awaiting my presence this weekend.. I'm slightly concerned for the weigh-in Sunday lol.  Surprisingly, though, I'm not stressing about it!  I know that in my path I will have 'ups and downs' and it is very important that I am still enjoying this life I'm granted with my family and friends while I'm bettering myself.  So, I'm just taking everything in stride. :)

Tootles!
