Let's talk about F O O D...and my Challenge Button

Good morning my lovelies!!  I hate not having my Internet services up and running at home yet.  I'm still using my mobile thingy. 

Well first off please check out my awesome Challenge Button created by non other than Jen our resident blog fairy.  I love her so much.  She rocks.  Do you see the nips on the pavement...is that not awesome?!?

Well after the morning workout I was hungry all day.  I couldn't figure it out.  Then my idiot light bulb went off.  Duh...my metabolism was doing it's job.  My other Jen suggested that maybe it was time for a fill.  She is right.  I have an appointment on Tuesday.  I have cancelled my last 3 appointments because I was feeling just right. 

So last night.  I came home.  Had dinner and was still hungry.  So I fixed a PBJ sandwich.  It was yummy and delicious.  However, the hunger monster was not satisfied.  Finally after about 10 whole grain tortilla chips I was good.  I was so not expecting to be attacked by the hunger monster.  I will be better prepared for all future morning workouts.

After putting the kids to bed I was scheduled to go for a walk.  I didn't.  I was exhausted.  Then I decided to read the blogs and saw that I had more comments.  Well the comments inspired me.  After I answered the blog fairy Jen's email, I put on my running shoes and left.  My husband didn't even know I had left the house.  Oops.  I did a short but fast sprint around to blocks and back.  I'm not a runner...but I felt like I should run.  Weird...I know.  

Today I didn't go to work because my daughter has another speech therapy appointment that had to happen before Friday. 

Today I will better manage my food.  Not sure what is for lunch and dinner yet.  I'm looking forward to a productive day.  It's a Zumba night.  I'm so excited. 

I hope everyone is enjoying their hump day.

Way to go on doing the exercising. I know I am the worst at it when i'd rather be sitting my ass on the sofa watching a "Law & Order" marathon with their cute cops (Doink-Doink!). So yea for you!!! When that fill comes on Tuesday, you will be feeling much better hunger wise, I'm sure!!!

Ugh, I hate when I'm hungry even AFTER eating dinner. It's really no good. I think it's awesome that you had time to sneak away for a run, though. :) That sounds like the perfect end to a day.

And LOVE the challenge button, how cute is that? lol

Are you making sure you're getting in enough protein after your workout as a recovery? Maybe a protein shake will help out? Just a thought.

Love your challenge button. Go you Dawnya!!

The challenge button rocks!

Good for you for getting out there and exercising! It's so much harder when you've already kinda decided not to. I find that even if I put a half hearted workout in, I feel so much better.

I'm with Cat on the protein boost... A protein bar or shake could help...

titties on the pavement? I thought it was just a big white car with really small tires.... quick question though... shouldn't those titties have dark skin? tee hee- glad to hear you are getting that fill and that you got some extra movin in yesterday- it will help you get to goal faster right? yay you!
