Sat. 7/19

Today I watched my nephew's lacrosse tournament. Man it was hot!

Got on the treadmill this morning before leaving. Took it a little easy because I hurt myself when I "played" tennis on Wed. It was only my 2nd time playing. My husband and I go out with rackets but I wouldn't call it tennis. Ha! Ha! Oh well, I have fun and it gets me exercising without making it seem like a workout so I guess the pain is worth it. My husband and I also do strength training 2x a week and treadmill (I walk on an incline and he likes to run) about 3x a week. He has been my rock. Always supportive and always made me feel beautiful no matter what size I am. Going to the gym with him has made the difference between success and failure.

Ate at Wendy's with my sister and her family for the sheer convenience factor. My nephew had about 2 hours between his last game and the next one and we wanted to get him in a place with air conditioning and Wendy's was the 1st thing we came too. Believe it or not, even for a fat person, I was never really into the fast food places. But sometimes a nice greasy burger goes down nice. And remember...you can eat WHATEVER you want. I did eat my burger but only about 1/2 of my small fries and 1/2 of my small frosty.

Dinner was a salad, 1/2 bowl of soup and about 1/4 of a small DQ blizzard. Still sometimes struggle with my new eating habits. I tend to over order but at least I now am listening to my body's signals of when I'm full.

Drank plenty of water especially with being out in the heat all day, but did try to conserve a bit...those port-a-pots are gross and nothing worse than a sauna of waste, I know, EEWWW, right??!!

Well, better get to bed. Going to tomorrow's tournament.
