I've been on vacation since July 28th. I had to pack tight, so no exercise clothes or running shoes. Bluh! I figured I'd be walking a lot (and that did turn out to be true!) and that would have to make up for my lack of a real workout.
Problem: One of the best things to do in New York City is EAT. And I did. I was on vacation! In one day I had a bagel for breakfast, pizza for lunch, and hotdogs for dinner. The New York Diet. So good but so full of nasty calories! On another occasion, I had gourmet mac 'n cheese for lunch. I don't even want to consider what the calorie counter would say to that.
But now I'm in Virginia and trying to do a little better. We're eating cafeteria style and its not always easy to find lower fat options but like I say, I'm "Doing What I Can." This morning I had grapenuts and a fruit bowl for breakfast. Dinner was brown rice and beans with a salad. I'm trying to avoid the salad dressings and instead eating low-cal cottage cheese with my salad. Its working out okay.
The real story won't come about until Saturday when I weigh in at the gym. I'll keep you updated there...*gulp*
