Yep, that's me... rifling through the basket of chocolate at kids group last night. I was anxiously searching for a Kit Kat. The closet thing I found was this...
It is a Kit Kat, technically, but white chocolate just doesn't cut it in my book. So I "settled" for nine Hershey's kisses. I made them last the entire two hours I was there by sucking each one slowly and really enjoying the flavor & texture in my mouth. And since I had left some wiggle room in my meal plan, knowing there would be chocolate there, no guilt for me. :-)
I stayed pretty close to my planned meals yesterday. I did eat one peanut butter creme Girl Scout cookie between breakfast & lunch. For snacks, I ended up skipping the grapefruit; but ate an extra string cheese.
The husband was being a computer hog this morning so I never got my meal plan for today posted. Breakfast was steel cut oats with strawberries, sliced almonds & milk. Regretfully, I ended up at Jack in the Box for a late lunch. I went in with the intention of having the Chicken Fajita Pita & water. But those darn curly fries sucked me into their curliness & forced me to ask for them; I swear they did! On the bright side, I talked myself out of having the sugary root beer along with it. So a little extra time in the gym tonight & a light dinner should compensate.
Does anyone else ever feel like living a healthy lifestyle is a full-time job?

Its a job and then some...glad you talked yourself out of the root beer.
I was the Employee of the Year when I worked for Junk Food Junkies.....and YES, a healthy lifestyle is a JOB! But I dont mind starting at the bottom and working my way up! Atleast with this job, there are rewards, benefits and the opportunity to advance!!!
Weight loss is absolutely a job, and kudos to you for being able to balance it with kids! I'm having a hard enough time balancing it with grad school :)
Yep, a job for sure.
Thanks for your nice msg today on my blog.
It's a full time job on top of my already paid full time job and sometimes it all get to be too exhausting!! On top of that I'm a single mom trying to earn my Masters. Whew!
