• spinach salad with chicken, lf cheddar, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocado, balsamic vinager

• yes

Calories: 1779 (over goal of 1600 but I did a lot of walking today, so I think I'm ok)

Victories: Are you kidding me?! 8 miles walking!

Defeats: I won't call the cupcake a defeat. It wasn't an impulse thing and I knew I could afford it calorie-wise. But I was starving when I got home and that could have been a disaster. I should have had something else as a snack ready for the ride home, maybe.

Observations: It's amazing that on my busy days in the office I can manage to stay on track. I think it is because I'm busy. As long as I planned a bit in advance, a busy day can be a good one.

Calories/Fat/%: 2010/62.5/28%

Water

Exercise

• 1 hour Total Body Workout: Aerobics--Total Body

Victories: Exercise. Not blowing it at dinner when I could have just given up on the day and eaten whatever I wanted to (I'm going through a junk food craving phase right now).

Defeats: Water. Not the best food choices. Little Debbies.

Observations: Um, the, uh, chocolate was to try to cool my mouth off after that salsa. Yeah. Cuz it's an old Aztec trick, that we, uh, learned in history! Yeah! And uh, it's the only food that will cure salsa-burn and uh.....Oh forget it. I CAVED! That salsa really was burning. I drank the milk to try and stop it...saltines too. Anyway, my trouble is that I never seem to be able to keep several things going at once. I can exercise well but my food and water will suffer. Or the water is great, but I don't get the exercise in. Guess that's my biggest challenge. Making it all work together. But at least I'm exercising.
