Day 178 (Friday 5/1)

<p>Happy Friday & May Day everyone!! The work day is over and I’m free for over 2 days!!! :)</p> <p>I didn’t fall asleep last night till after midnight so it was hard to get up this AM. But I did…enough to say goodbye to DH and then hit the hay again until Abby woke me up at 7:35!!!! AAHHHH!! I have to be to work at 8am! I made it there by 8:04!!!</p> <p>When I got there I found like on my door handle…a May basket!! I was so tempted just to eat away at it all day since I didn’t have time to eat breakfast, but luckily I only had a <strong>Butterfinger</strong> and a <strong>pb cup</strong>…I’m guessing it around <strong>2 points</strong>. After that I gave it to a co-worker because I knew I wouldn’t be able to resist it the rest of the day.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAffjeUnFDtOuHUgUijEvait7IA5dwqgEqbS7M2O8-S8XnxLe51QqFpGUZHYBIybDEsY83Q2aeE7Ckft4v-QF19pgtntIewli2PpO5h7OknYpyKw4CbazBieMNsJ1-E79v1K-9Si4OJzmW/s1600-h/DSC02401%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02401" border="0" height="409" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHh1C0g1_MJF5suM2lFX9mj21ECoMGhEOSmKkkraJRKHqBNXBSxwdUS9r1B_f79XsvJn23ySr1uV857u0BLQUGtM81WUUoyTnOroLw6oy5G_wJ_2_6-WfMHJ4lpWXLfLvyCLHL3IoKiIFr/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02401" width="312"></a> </p> <p>I made breakfast at work. <strong>Oatmeal</strong> with <strong>blueberries</strong> and an <strong>english</strong> <strong>muffin</strong> with <strong>cream</strong> <strong>cheese</strong> for <strong>4 points</strong>.

I couldn’t figure out what I wanted and figured this was quick and easy!

It is so fun to have a running buddy, I think I like it more than my ipod! We chatted the whole time! Wait maybe I should say talked instead of “chatted”…might be too girly!! ;) Oh and Abby was a better running buddy today…she kept up the whole time! </p> <p>What do you think of my new header? I really wanted to incorporate some pictures, but I couldn’t find the “right” one(s). So this will have to do for now!</p> <p>I really had NO idea what I wanted for supper. I was craving another smoothie and DH was wanting me to have a protein shake with him so I combined them! Wow…I think I went overboard on this one…it FILLED my Cuisinart blender (not sure how many cups). My smoothie contained: <strong>1 c almond breeze, 1 1/2 c strawberries, 1 banana, 1 scoop protein powder</strong>, and <strong>ice</strong> for a total of <strong>6 points</strong>. Look how much it made!!! That GIANT Hawkeye mug (Yep…<strong>GO HAWKS</strong>!!!) is the size of my head!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEja_r6XHNrZdNe0DxnHuGRobmzvGprtGy11tp0lHCnfE0pg7x9JDsdwxj7s-6kjwZrg6YnaBcPOc2LsT22sWq5pNkHLeFo73QX91ykzjvC_jleCiwoi0__RzFlECwxQqtx2dZKObPRXUo1L/s1600-h/DSC02408%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02408" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglU9aUV4kguSoKjBSkPlrzajD60bKYNLuOjl0qZU2DKPWQYfwSL8WIgQNdf7-b4WDEhg7-02VmNj_xGg_WmYk51GQ5YuLaDFGMrkw-Fks5hFXIVTB_4yOuaWcTwVi1r9iEKKs7mtEkVCmV/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02408" width="404"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4424kyfvIHLtsgzo2bBdPl1euCGNkbmuRKGbNo4ULoBhhgC7tlVhl1ZACg9Ae4spEFvD26srgy4BIeXzs6QN-3wi8XyyDqP554y0r6W57VNimBLqaQHxs7MJTD6sn2daOZE3EHFjQva-6/s1600-h/DSC02411%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02411" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ_sqMP9BgzQ5ZlTMVcf-nBWAMXd_mTpGBrdowKpy3XuwJpwc97YPm-TnTZefD6RGPUZgkqvf9k2W4N2xadDujLR0ZvqCFA0vXfsZvwhCvdifDAx_ELtpEQzdLQqGI23dqGEpYtVDF2Qw/?imgmax=800" style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="DSC02411" width="404"></a></p> <p>Since it’s May now I figured I should do a re-cap of my April goals and post my May goals. So without further ado, for your reading pleasure, here are my April goal recaps and May goals! :)</p> <p><strong>April Goals</strong></p> <p>1. Continue no Cool Whip during Lent - ACCOMPLISHED</p> <p>2. Try 2 new WW friendly recipes – ACCOMPLISHED – banana pancakes, fruit dip, crack wraps, and homemade smoothie!</p> <p>3. Workout 5 days/week – I don’t think I quite made this goal…the beginning of the month was rough. </p> <p>4. 158 lbs by 4/30/09 – Didn’t hit this goal either…the scale isn’t being nice to me lately, but I’m NOT letting it get me down!!</p> <p><strong>May Goals</strong></p> <p>1. Sign up & run Dam to Dam 5K (May 30^th!)</p> <p>2. Blog everyday</p> <p>3. Workout 5 days/week</p> <p>4. 155 lbs by 5/31/09</p> <p>Around 10PM DH got a “wild hair” and wanted to rent a movie…so we hopped our bikes and rode to the video store. In total to and from was a 30 minute bike ride. It was kinda fun to ride at night…not the safest, I know. And I haven’t got a helmet yet either, I think we might get one this weekend!</p> <p>We are now settled in for the night watching our movie! G’nite my favorite blogger buddies!! Hope everyone has a FAN-TAB-U-LOUS weekend!!</p> <p><strong>FRIDAY’S STATS</strong></p> <p>POINTS = 21/23</p> <p>WEEKLY ALLOWANCE = 6 used/29 remaining</p> <p>WATER = 96 oz</p> <p>EXERCISE = 30 min run, 30 min bike ride</p>
