Lunch: 160 Perdue Baked Chicken Breast, 10 Lettuce, 80 Provolone, 40 Light Ranch, 35 Carrots = 325

Snack: 45 Strawberries / 46 Watermelon 5 oz each, 80 Cheese Stick, Stick of Gum 5 = 176

Dinner: 140 Chicken Breast 4oz, 140 Whole Grain Bun, Wheat Thins 140 , Cottage Cheese Duo w/Blueberries 140, Blue Monster 5 = 565

Total 1331 

 

Jimmy stayed home today - he was running a fever yesterday so we thought it was best to keep him home just to make sure he gets better.  We didn't do much when we got up cuz Jim's mom stopped over.  It's been raining on and off so we haven't gotten our garden in yet.  I would just do today but we have to get the garden fence up cuz I know the dogs would go right in then it all would be a mess - don't want to take any chances.

 

Feeling good today though, hate being in, wish I could get to the gym but don't want to take Jimmy out.  We did walk Diesel for a little while just to get some fresh air - feeling muggy, sticky out with the rain - in the 70's here.

 

Haven't heard about the interview.  Did get my confirmation on the unemployment so hoping to get that coming in very soon.  I would imagine next week will be my 1st check (direct deposit) so that will be nice until something comes up.  I hate the idea of not working but nothing I can do except keep looking.  I sent out 3 other resumes so hope to hear back from these places too.  I try to send locally cuz with Jimmy I have to be there for him in time of need.  Jim can't just leave his work if something came up, it's like he's on lockdown there once he's in unless it's a major medical emergency.

 

He's still working his 40 hours a week, nothing more.  Still swing shift too - blah.  He's working afternoons thru Friday so can't wait till he's off again, a day usually.  He goes midnights probably this weekend for 5 days so Jimmy and I will spend lots of time outside and at the gym.  Hopefully if the weather gets nicer I can take him swimming.

 

Well I'd better get some catching up done on journals but wanted to get my journal posted. 

 

Have a great HUMP DAY!

 

Burpees so Far 40

25 Reg Pushups = 1 set 15 / 1 set 10

55 Min PowerSculpt Warm Up/3 Workouts/Cool Down - Burned 279 Cals

Treadmill Time Later..... Did 3 miles on the treadmill - Burned 325 cals

 Total Cals Burned = 604 plus burpees & pushups cals burned :-)

What a great way to end the evening!!!!!

 

Thanks for the Motivation Girls!

 

Once I get in my treadmill time I will count that as another workout since I already got in 55 min plus the pushups, burpees, etc.  Will update my miles too.  I only listed 1.75 cuz I got cut short last night with Jimmy calling me, planned on doing 2.  Tonight I'm shooting for 3 miles total (Walk/Run).

    Great job on keeping up with things. Hope Jimmy is feeling better soon! At least it will be nice to just have off work for a while just to catch up and breath. It will be well deserved after everything. I wish I could take a month off right now. I think I would come out of it a different person.

    Your food and your exercise look great! I have to just avoid the kitchen entirely. Have too many temptations in there. And if I eat one thing, I just keep going! It's like "well I already screwed up, so I might as well really overdo it!"

    It's raining here too. Yesterday it was like high of 55 degrees and pouring rain. Ugh! That cold dampness is so de-motivating! I am painting my sunroom bright yellow. The color is actually called "Sun Showers." I am hoping that 365 days a year, I can go out there and feel like it is a warm Spring day, no matter the weather.

    Take care and have a great day! Keep inspiring me!

    Yay! Great job Kathy! I hate this weather. I can't wait for the summer! I hope Jimmy feels better. Thanks for your support on my journal. I really needed it. I am crossing my fingers for you to get a job, but the good thing is that you are there for your baby. I have not started burpees, but will soon. Take care!
