Up all night with my eldest who is having terrible nightmares. I was so tired this morning. Thank God the baby slept until 6:15 (that's sleeping in in our house).
Dropped off the eldest to daycare then went to an appointment across town. Got home at 10am. Thank God the baby napped for a couple hours!! So did I.
Was having a real issue about what to have for dinner as my friend Karen was coming over. Normally I would put a pizza in the oven, have a huge ceasar salad and garlic bread, but that's no longer an option for me at this point. Even if I did limit myself and eat sensibly, there would be leftovers that I would binge on later that night, and it's just better if it's not in the house.
So, chicken breasts, boiled broccoli and a low-fat pasta "Sidedish" did the trick. It was quite yummy if I do say so myself.
Karen brought a small bottle of wine so I had 2 glasses but that's quite minimal compared to what I normally drink, so I didn't lose my motivation.
I also suprised myself by working out before she got there! I had the time so I thought, why not? I won't feel like it after she leaves and I would make excuses so I just put the baby in the jolly jumper beside me and turned on the DVD before I had time to think about it. Felt good, although I'm really sore today! It's nice to feel my muscles again!
I still have some calories to eat (as per my friend Vicki, I should not go under 1200 or my body will go into starvation mode and hoard all my fat) so I will have a nice snack before bed of rice cakes and maybe some low-fat cottage cheese. Hey - don't knock rice cakes til you try them! I'm lucky at least in the sense that I enjoy most foods, I'm not picky, so even if it's a rice cake, I'll like it! lol lol.
