The day after...

276.8!  I'll take it!
I'm stiff and sore from playing the Wii.  I find that both exciting and hilarious!  I never imagined a video game could actually give me a decent workout, but it has.
Part of my mission today will be to find some workout clothes.  Not an easy thing to do when you're a size 24/26 waist and at least a 3x shirt.  I need spandex shorts, like bike shorts, to keep my thighs from rubbing together.  I'd also like a sleeveless top with a low neck to help me stay cool as I move around.  This is an outfit I'm definitely not ready to leave the house in, but since I'm working indoors and in the privacy of my own home, I think it's all good. 
Fortunately my husband has not laughed too much at me yet.  It's kind of nice actually.  I was afraid I'd be too embarrassed to work out in front of him, just because of how awful and uncoordinated and flabby I must look.  He was extremely supportive and at one time was even cheering me on as I was doing one of the games.  When I was finished and told him how much I'd done, he said he was very happy to see me so excited and he was very proud of me.  That made me feel really good.
In other news... getting ready for my trip to TN next week to see my grandmother.  Should be a lot of fun, as I'll get to see my mom, my brother and his wife, and my niece and nephew.

Fantabulous!

Can I just say, I am in love with my Wii?  I wasn't so enamored with it just a few days ago.  Today I got BOTH the Wii Fit Plus AND Dance Dance Revolution.  I am confident these games are going to transform this couch potato into a workout-aholic!  Holy cow!  I logged over an hour and a half of great workout time today and I feel fantastic!

Food today went well too!  All around fantastic day!

Breakfast-- coffee with a splash of half and half, then a shake made with 1/2 scoop vanilla slimfast, 1/2 banana, some mango, a peach, a little pineapple, an egg and a splash of soy milk.  YUM!

Lunch-- Paradise Bakery!  Cup of fire roasted tomato soup, 1/2 a turkey sandwich on whole grain bread (ditched the top piece).  1/2 of a chocolate chip cookie-- couldn't resist!

Snack-- Slimfast bar.  Not the greatest choice, but it was fast and easy.

Dinner-- YC's Mongolian BBQ!  I had some chicken soup and a little bit of my stir fry.  Brought the rest home to enjoy tomorrow!

I'm loving being on vacation and really proud of what I'm accomplishing so far!!
