Confession Monday

So I haven't worked out since Friday and today I had 3 handfuls of m&ms. I planned on going to the spin class this morning but I was hearing that "5 more minutes" mantra in my head. This week wasn't starting out so great.

Then I got a text from a close friend:

"By reading your blog, Im super aware and doing much better at the whole eating/weight loss thing.... your an inspiration!"

I was extremely touched that she felt that way especially because I was pretty sure nobody was reading this. And her text really helped me realize that, yes, today was an off day with the m&ms and that although I haven't worked out in 2 days doesnt mean what Im doing is meaningless. Dont get me wrong, I wasn't having my typical "I mess everything up. Forget it - Im going to be fat forever" sob story but I was feeling a bit off because of the lack of exercise. Case in point - my sluggish feeling this morning when I was trying to get up for spin class.

I'm steal pulling strong with my eating. This morning I had rolled oats and a yogurt for breakfast. For lunch was a chicken breast, 1/2 cup of cottage cheese and one piece of cheddar cheese. And water water water!

So tonight - no excuses! Matt is gone at football practice so I can't head to the gym, but I have plenty of workout videos (and the Wii) to get my exercise in once Ava is asleep. And tomorrow - I will be up bright and early to spin my little (or big?) butt off!
