Week Five Tuesday

Today I've continued to feel really good- higher energy and easier movement.  I started the morning by walking to the gym, working out really well, walking home, and then prepping the evening crockpot lasagna.  As soon as I got to school, things got really busy.  I ate three of my little egg/mushroom/onion/egg muffin-y things and then thought I had grapes at work, but I remembered wrong and didn't have any fruit with my breakfast.  For morning snack, I got my ounce of almonds in barely.  For lunch, I didn't have time to run to West Union to get my bean salad that I left there yesterday, so I had a cup of cottage cheese and an apple.  By the time work was done, I could tell I hadn't had any water, not enough protein, and needed food.  I had to run to the bank and then to my acupuncture appointment in a half hour, so I stopped by Burger King and picked up a jr. whopper, a medium order of fries, and a medium root beer.  While not healthy, I needed food and eating and drinking felt good.

My acupuncture appointment was awesome- she really helped my knee feel better.  When I got in the car, my energy was climbing.  On the drive home, I was even considering going in and working out again.  Instead, I came home and took Pippin for our long walk around the park and junior high.  It was wonderful.  Perfect weather.

For dinner, I had two servings of crockpot lasagna, 3 slices of garlic toast, and a bag of steamed green beans.  Finally my energy and will power started fading and I ended the day with 5 nutter butter cookies.  I ended the day at 10,176 steps.
