OOoooo i love farmers markets they always have awesome stuff :)
Your doing great K! thanks for all the help :)
 
Yeah, junk food is totally cheaper. :mad:

I love the farmer's market too. It's often cheaper than the grocery store, and the best thing is your money is going straight to the farmers, instead of to the grocery store!
 
I agree... it is so much nicer to deal straight w/ the farm instead of paying the overhead from the grocery store & its fresher & you get to see the faces of the people you are supporting..its a nice feeling i think. I bought some anadama bread from them that was amazing...its just like what my grammy used to make.
Today ive done ok..but no exercise...
B: 2 slices of anadama w/ margarine 1 peach,
coffee w/ sugar free creamer

S: 1 small apple & 1 cup of soy milk

L: 1 cup basmati rice w/ roasted veggies, rest of my salad from last nite.

S: 1 slice of wheat bread w/ 1 tbsp PB & 1 cup of skim choc milk..needed a sugar fix.

D: going mexican..gonna try to be good... having an apple before i get there to try to curb my appetite... wish me like..ill be back to let you know

water : not great..about 80 oz
 
I did pretty well..I had a glass of wine...which i didnt finish cuz it came out in a freekin fish bowl..I had probably a normal glass of wine size out of it. I ordered chimichanga w/ chic and only ate half of it. I shared a dessert w/ my friend and we had a soy lattee after...so not too bad. I was happy w/ myself as i wasnt so full and dying when i left ya know...like i would have normally been. I do feel like maybe i had too much sodium as my fingers feel a bit punky..plus the humidity isnt helping...
 
you did awesome K!!, i so would have over eaten i love mexican! im sure your using some of your water retaining tricks to get the water retention down :)

You are really working it!!!...As crazy as this sounds I wish I had a lawn to mow....I think that is a really good work out....maybe I should go around the neighboor hood and volunteer to do some ones yard......ummm on second thought maybe not...lol...I would get one strip done and fall over....
 
LOL... I was dead the next day...and then we have done lots of moving wheelbarrows of mulch & moving rocks, edging gardens..etc... just lots of outdoor heavy work...but it was a great workout & great to be outside.
My food wasnt perfect this weekend..went to the fair on Sunday and had some fried dough..not too much, we all shared but enough to be naughty:-D We walked for hours though and also had done several wheelbarrow loads of mulch earlier..so i didnt feel so bad.
I am not unhappy w/ my food entirely & my workouts were just workin outside..but im sore & tired..so i know it was good.
My water intake was good both Sunday & Monday... 100 oz each day

School starts for my 8 yr old tomorrow... thank God!
Im off to make lunches :-D see you all tomorrow!
