Exercise and creamy food... hmmm

I was concerned I wouldn't get any exercise in today. I was good with breakfast but then we went to Shari's for lunch (potato soup and potstickers... no pop!) so I was concerned when the kids didn't want to ride their bikes in the wind. And a little relieved.

Then things cooled off a little and we got a lot of bike riding in. Which means I got to do a lot of short jogs. Then I got a couple of longer jogs running to rescue Ashley trying to become Evil Knievel (you know what I mean) off the sidewalk/curb into the parking lot where I was having Annie practice. So there was my grand exercise.

Does it mean I am burning more calories if my tummy is getting actually hungry? Because I swear I am digesting my own stomach lining today. I waited 4 hours between breakfast and lunch and then 4 more until I was starving and ate a snack. To top it all off, I hurried and made dinner early so I'd stop growling. I don't know if I am eating healthy (ha!) with my potato soup at lunch and then biscuits and gravy for dinner. At least portions are in line. The kids and I ate the same amount.

Now I am off to eat my middle of the night Totino's pizza because I am digesting myself again.

I have to get back on the veggies and good stuff. No more cream! I might as well have had a blizzard.

Oh yeah, and I finally went to the gas station and got a pop tonight AND ate half a box of Milk Duds. I suck at this.

But I jogged. Kind of. Short bursts. -ish.

Okay, food for thought (ha!). You should NEVER let yourself get hungry - I've read A LOT of weight loss books and they all agree on this point. Basically, eat smaller meals more often, or make sure to have a snack that has some protein between the three bigger meals. We've all been diabetic (gestationally at least) - that's seriously the diet we should be following. It's boring and gross but it DOES work.

Sorry for all the capitals - I'm feeling VERY EMPHATIC.

GO HOLLY!

I LOVE capitals. I think I should use them all the time and make a word smaller to make a difference since I overuse the allcaps. But that would maybe undermine the word and then where would we be?

PS got a lot more jogging in today. Running with the neighbor boy who is also trying to learn but is more chicken (or I'm harder on Alex) than Alex. I ran the parking lot 3 times just with him!

Off to Ellensburg to see the father of my kids... the baby daddy if you will.

Maybe not
