Monday began with an 8:30 a.m. meeting. And keep in mind that I don't drink caffeine, so it took willpower and the love of Jesus to stay conscious for that. Even though I was one of the presenters.
After the meeting, I had a glass of water, two tangerines, and a slice of cheese with five whole wheat crackers. Total: 3 points
Lunch was the other half of my amazing ham sammich (sooooo good) and a giant apple, plus another two glasses of water. Total: 6 points.
Then Linzi and I got down with the pretzels and chocolate chips during yet another meeting, and I had another glass of water. Total: 4 snacky points. She wanted me to shame her, but considering that she's skinny, looks like Jennifer Aniston, and just did a Tough Mudder this weekend, I think she can handle 120 calories of pretzels.
Exercise was an hour and fifteen minutes of yoga. It had a really long forward flexion. Look fun? Try holding it for almost five minutes. Go ahead. I'll wait.
Dinner was a cup of homemade potato soup (which I'd just like to say, damn--I make some good soup), a salad that was lettuce, tomatoes, and two teaspoons of lemon olive oil. Plus two more glasses of water. Total: 7 points
Dessert was a cup of milk and a mini pumpkin muffin. Total: 3 points.
And then, we all know about my weird late-night cravings for corn flakes, so I had a cup of those. Total: 3 points
Liquids: 7/6
Dairy: 2/2
Vitamin: 1/1
Healthy Oil: 2/2
Fruits/Veggies: 5/5
Protein: 2/2
Whole Grains: yes--wheat crackers and pretzels.
Exercise: Yes--yoga!
Total: 26/26 points
Weekly Points: 0/49 for the week (I'm trying to save my weekly points for date night dinner with Chris--you know, for the one night he'll be free for the next two weeks).
In honor of a successful day, here's Kate wearing a cowboy hat.

| Riiiiiiight. (I can't do this by the way. I just do my best version of Raggedy Ann when the class does this pose.) |
