I can’t believe it’s Sunday night already! Where did the weekend go???
Jacob and I headed to the Woodburn Factory Stores for an afternoon of much-needed shopping, and I made out pretty well! I really needed some new work clothes and new jeans, and I actually stuck to buying that stuff. I bought a new lightweight sweater, cardigan, and skinny jeans at J Crew and a denim pencil skirt at Banana, all for $120! Love the outlets!
We were there until almost 4pm, so we grabbed lunch at Subway – which has been making quite a few appearances this week! We split a footlong turkey breast sub and diet Coke. Exciting, huh? Lunch cals = 280.
We didn’t get home until 5ish and I felt like I needed some exercise, so I laced up my sneakers for a planned 3 mi run to be followed by some weights and yoga at home during the Oscars. I literally had the most crappy run of my life. I NEVER stop and walk, and I kept getting super tired, and then frustrated, the whole time. I only ended up doing 2 mi and it was the slowest and most awful 2 mi ever. Sorry to be such a whiner, but that’s the most amazing thing about exercise – it has the ability to make you feel awesome or totally crappy.
J saw I was upset when I got home though, and said something so true – that I was going because I felt like I had to, not because I wanted to. True – I still felt gross from the various sicknesses, I was tired, and underfueled. I totally had the wrong mindset and was worried the whole time about how I would suck on my half marathon in a few weeks and not burning off last night’s calories. Instead, I should have focused on the fact that I was moving my butt and not been so hard on myself. He’s so right!! I should be happy that I at least ran/walked 2 mi when I didn’t feel like it.
I got back just in time for the Oscars, and I’m multi-tasking watching and finishing up work. I just heated up dinner, which was leftover quiche from last night and some broccoli with mustard sauce. I had a small piece plus another sliver for about 400 cals, so total dinner = 450. Cal targets are off today because of weird meal times.
Sorry to be such a butt today. I just want more of a weekend, even though we did a lot! I got great exercise twice, went out both nights and socialized one of them, shopped, and slept in both days. Still, weekends should be three days 
Cals consumed today: 1160. Maybe some hot chocolate and baked apple later to bump up cals and live up to the name of this blog??
Have a good night!
