DON'T SKIP MEALS!!!

That's my new rule. Today it was 72 degrees. I got to go to the gym this morning and while blow drying my hair in the locker room decided to see if my friend wanted to have a playdate at the park for our kids since I had the car for the day.

So I decided to get a quick protein shake but didn't explain myself well enough to the guy making it and instead of getting about 200 calories in it I got somewhere between 40 and 80. So my 80 cal toast that morning plus my 40-80 cal protein shake at 10:30 meant that I only had 120-160 calories from the time I got up at 7 until 4 pm and I had 6 miles of high intensity interval training on the bike today (20+ miles per hour the whole time, my heart rate was in the 170's)!

When I got home I made a quick tuna fish sandwich (245 calories) and instead of saving the other half for dinner I ate the rest of the can on another sandwich. And then a 60 cal pudding cup with 4 strawberries.

Then the kids took a late nap and didn't wake up until 7 so we took them to chick-fil-a to play on the playground etc. I had the chargrilled chicken and fruit salad which was awesome, only I made the mistake of getting the thousand island dressing instead of a basalmic vinaigrette and the dressing had more calories than the salad (though my 2 year old helped me eat a lot of the fruit and some chicken so really I only had about 80% of the calories). My salad was 605 calories total (including what my 2 yr old ate... I'm guessing I really only had about 500 calories of it but I'm counting it all).

Total calories for the day? 1324 and 8+ glasses of water. It would have been super easy to stick to 1200 calories today, I just shouldn't have skipped a meal and I would have been fine. I really credit the adipex for the appetite suppression.

And a girl from the gym has some sublingual hcg drops that she might give me. She is just checking to make sure her mom doesn't want them. So yay for that!
