Be careful what you ask for!

So last night I decide that I am going to only do what 12wbt tells me to do.  That meant I was not going to journal unless instructed to do so.  Right after I post my blog I go to 12wbt sight and guess what this weeks challenge is?  Journal your food!

I swear it was like Michelle was reading my mind!  But as I said last night, she knows how to do this process and I promised to follow along.  So back to journaling today :)

I've had a very productive day.  My household chores are all completed (last load of laundry is in the wash).  I got ahold of Disney to get the label they promised so that I could return Erica's dress so they can remove the (insert explicative) ink tag!  I managed to get the label and the dress shipped off today.  Hannah and I went to Olive Garden and had Soup, Salad and Breadsticks for lunch.  I love OG Minestrone soup.  I limited myself to one breadstick.  But that was easy because they were overcooked and over garliced today.  I did have a couple helpings of salad but they were not heavy on dressing today so very healthy. 

My workout consisted of 30 min bike ride (7.33 miles) and 15 min tm (.7 miles).  So 8 miles done toward my 30k goal this week.  I love the bike/tm combo.  I would have done 30 min tm but Hannah wanted to go out to lunch.  And I had grocery shopping to do.  So we did it together.

Tonight is pizza night in town.  Erica has dance class and it is next to Eskomo Pizza Pies.  And Monday nights they have $13.00 for an 18" peperoni/cheese pizza.  So it has become tradition for Monday night to be pizza night.  But I will drink lots of water and limit myself to one piece.  I'll have some fruit or veggies before going for pizza.

Mia also has a cheering gig at the basketball game tonight.  I'm pretty sure I can manage not to buy snacks.  But those sugar suckers (as E calls them) are so very yummy.  I'll see if I can find calorie info on them.  If I indulge in anything it will be a sucker.  And it can't be too many calories.  Empty calories but I can live with that.

Tomorrow I help out in E's kindergarten room in the morning.  I'll get my household chores done before going.  I can do my workout after lunch.

I think my tm should arrive maybe Friday.  Hopefully Al and I can get it put together over the weekend and I can start c25k again.  I really want to do some 5k this again this season.  And I am seriously contemplating registering for the Irongirl Duathlon again this fall.  But only if we aren't traveling that week.  If it's the weekend after we travel then I it would be possible.  But just thinking about it at this point.

Kathy and I are kicking around the idea of a trip to the UK this year.  Ireland, Scotland and England in one trip.  I think it would be fun.  But have to wait to see what the finances look like first.  But I can put together a trip itinerary and get costs.  It sure would be fun!
