Day 23 - Dessert is calling


Today was a rest day on my training schedule, but I’m thinking that I may change that going forward.  I’m finding that on the days that I’m getting up to run or some other activity, I feel energized.  While I understand the importance of rest days to let the body heal, but I think some activity is better than none.  It doesn’t have to be strenuous exercise everyday, maybe some yoga or walking at lunchtime.  Either way I think I’m going to try and do this going forward.

Breakfast
Oatmeal
Coffee with creamer

Lunch
Cheeseburger on whole grain bun (not the best for me, but everything in moderation, right?)

Dinner
Skinless chicken tenders with gravy
Brown rice
Green beans

The last couple of days, I’ve really been craving dessert.  I’ve done really well resisting the last few weeks but I finally gave in tonight.  So I packed the family in the car and we headed to…Cold Stone.  Now before you start telling me how bad this was for me, I want you to know that I went with the healthiest option they had. 

Dessert
Sinless Sweet Cream (no sugar or fat)
Raspberries for mix-ins

I don’t plan to make this a habit.  If I do this again in the near future, please feel free to yell at me.  The good news is that even with the cheeseburger and dessert today, I still stayed under 1500 calories for the day.  Not too bad.
