Hot and Helathy - Week 2

So, last week wasn't too bad.  I did have one night that was, well, a "splurge night" let's say.  BigB and I went out for supper and we happened to need, ahem, to share a spinach dip and I happened to need to eat a tuscan stromboli and then we went to a local coffee shop where we were just going to get a drink but then BigB saw the coconut cream pie, which he had to have! This lead me to falling short and eating a half a piece of rocky road cheesecake. 

I would like to state, for the record and for my own pride, that I only ate half the piece of cheesecake and then shared the remainder with my chidren the next day.  Now THAT takes will power.

I have been doing a half hour of wii fit each day, except for Friday, and on Saturday I did a half hour of ab work using Turbo Jam. Which totals up to 3 1/2 hours of exercise for the week.  Yay me!

This week my goal is to keep more of an eye on what I am eating, starting a food journal and all that jazz.

I was craving the crunchy food when my family had movie night and chips/dip.  What curbed my craving was chowing down on some Honeycombs.  It gave me that "crunch" that I wanted while tricking myself into thinking I could be eating chips.  (Not the healthiest but I think a not bad substitute)

  4. Not a bad choice at all! And, sometimes, you've just gotta allow yourself some cheesecake...you know, so you don't end up eating the whole darn cake! ;) Great job!

  6. If you can't give yourself one splurge night you are going to end up splurging EVERY night :)
