I ate... okay over the weekend. Not really bad, but I could've definitely done better - it was the salty snacks that really did me in, especially while Gaming on Saturday. There were Raisinettes and Whoppers there, which are among the better choices for sweets, and they don't usually tempt me. Although I did eat more Whoppers than I probably should have... And I did have the gum I brought with me to prevent temptation -- it helped quite a bit, but I was reminded of why I stopped chewing it on a regular basis.
And the hostess had gotten some Bacon Popcorn to try, for the novelty factor -- yes, Bacon Popcorn. And you know what? It's pretty darn tasty! And I think I saw that it's only 40 calories for one cup! Not sure about other nutritional info, and I'm sure the sodium content is through the roof... I can definitely see it as an occasional snack! :D
Sunday continued with the salty snack theme. We stayed home for the Super Bowl and the Hubster didn't get out to get the snacks he had wanted (which was something of a blessing, actually...) so the temptations on hand were Sundried Tomato and Basil Wheat Thins, as well as both raw and Smokehouse Almonds. Again, not awful snacks, but I had a lot more of them than I should have. That and the rest of the Teriyaki for dinner made for a sodium fun-fest of a weekend! *eyeroll at self*
Today turned out better -- back on track. I took in 1483 calories, and 120 oz. water, as well as my usual coffee. I had rehearsal (gentle dancing for about a total of 40 minutes) and then I got home and did Level 1 of the 30 Day Shred DVD for the first time. I was pink-faced and a sweaty after the 25 minute workout was done, but after the No More Trouble Zones DVD kicked my ass last week, this one (at least at level 1) wasn't too bad. The previews of levels 2 and 3 (especially 3) look like they will be more of a challenge, for sure, though...
Time for bed -- G'night, all!
Whoppers will do ya in every time! I think they are like a gram of fat each. Great job on the exercising!!
