I am back and with a weekend review

Well I know I haven't posted in awhile, but I am back now. We had a busy weekend, and still managed to eat good, with a few setbacks. Friday night, we just ate leftovers because I had to rush off and get the boys haircuts. Saturday was the big day! We had baseball, the Blue Angels and Gymnastics. I was lucky enough to squeeze in a 7 mile run! I had gotten up early that morning and made some whole wheat biscuits, ham and scrambled eggs for breakfast. After my great run, I had a banana smoothie and a leftover biscuit with some peanut butter. It held me over till dinner, which was a mushroom, onion and swiss burger from Five Guys. Oh yeah, and fries. Oops and some TCBY later that night. But I truely believe that if you don't splurge, you will never be able to stick to a healthy lifestyle. And just so happens that my splurges occur during the weekend. Sunday we woke up and I made homemade pancakes! They were delicious! You make them with oatmeal. They filled me up till lunch, which was ham and cheese on a leftover biscuit from Saturday. Very filling. I decided not to go running, mostly because the weatherman said it was suppose to rain all day...WRONG! But I had a lot of stuff that I needed to get done. We are leaving Friday to go to the beach, so I needed to go ahead start packing. And that is just what I did. I got my suitcase packed, and both the boys. Got Easter baskets all tucked away. Carter has an early baseball game tonight, but we won't be home till at least 7, so I went ahead and made a bunch of dinner stuff so that I don't have to worry about cooking this week. But I still squeezed in a workout. Deron let me sneak off last night @ 7 to start working out and he put both boys down. I did 30 minutes on the Elliptical Trainer and then a 45 min. workout with Jillian. I love the No More Trouble Spots DVD. It was great. But my night didn't end there! Nope, it ended after I devoured some chocolate chips cookies! Made my workout even better. But it is Monday today and back to the usual diet. Last night before I went to bed, I set up the crockpot to make my Steel Cut Oats. So I had a nice warm bowl of delicious oats this morning. I added half a sliced banana (Cooper finished the rest of it), some raisins and spoonful of peanut butter. Very filling! and now I am sitting here at work and blogging while enjoying a nice cup coffee. I am trying out Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk in my coffee, and so far so good! I am sure it would be good in some oats too! Sorry for the long post. See ya for lunch!
