I DO!

If you read my blog yesterday, you know what I mean when I say "I Do!" I got up this morning got dressed and worked out. Well let me go back to yesterday. I worked out and ate the 5 meals that I have been instructed to do. It was hard. I am so used to just not eating or eating very little daily. I usually just have a protein shake in the morning about 9 am and then at lunch I might not eat until 1 0r 2. I might have oatmeal and then at dinner I eat whatever I make for the kids or eat whatever I can find that seems healthy. SO for me to eat 5 times in one day was hard. I felt like all I did was think about food. In the book he says that if you plan 2 times a week that problem is eliminated. Today I plan on making a list of food that I will need for the week and then making enough food to get me to Wednesday and then on Wednesday I will make food for the rest of the week. I liked that idea. I am not someone that LOVES to cook. I don't want to spend all day cooking what I have to eat. That is just too much kitchen time. With cooking and dishes. By the time I was done cooking and cleaning up it would be time to cook again! BLAH!! No thanks. Plus at some point I would like to have a job and then I can't really sit in the kitchen all day. Nor do I want I too anyway. Kitchen is for the birds. Or the kids :)

Today's workout kicked my butt. I can still feel my legs shaking. I do know that working out helps me make better food choices. If I work out I don't want it to be for nothing. I did have a hard time at night last night. I bought a YONANAS machines the other day. It makes ice cream out of frozen banana's and fruit. I made banana and berry ice cream. You don't add anything but the fruit. Allan even liked it and he is an ice cream fanatic. I thought it was good but I think I would leave out the banana's. Not that it wasn't good I just have a hard time with the texture of banana's. I thought that it would be different frozen. NOPE still nasty. If you are an ice cream fanatic I would recommend this product. I bought it at Bed, bath and Beyond it was $50.00. Worth the money.

I do get a free day and I am looking forward to the break from the work out. Part of my work out is walk 3 minuets, walk at a fast pace and then jog for one minute and repeat 5 times, which works out to be 30 minuets. I wanted to get off the treadmill the first time I was jogging this morning. What kept me going was thinking its only 1 minute, I can do anything for 1 minute! 30 minutes later I was done and beat!!! I am so looking forward to Sunday! I kind of feel like its a little cheating because I started in the middle of the week. But I figure I need to get on a schedule and its better than saying I will wait to start on Monday (like I do every other time.)

Well I guess that is all today. Hope I didn't bore you too much!
