No gym today :(

I didn't get in any exercise today.  I was all signed up for a triathlon this morning, but Ernie had to go into work at the last minute and I didn't have anyone to watch Lily.  I was so bummed about losing out on the registration money ($65), that I completely sabotaged my day by not working out at all.  I still could if I was really dedicated, but it is after 11:00 and I really am not that dedicated.  Sleep is more important.  I will get right back to it tomorrow, though.  And honestly, working out at night means I never get to see my husband, who leaves for work before 5:00 a.m. and usually doesn't get home until 6:00 or later.  So it was nice relaxing this evening and spending time with him and Lily.

If I fall off the exercise bandwagon, I get right back on it.  Tomorrow I will be back to the gym and, as long as Ernie doesn't have to go back into work, trying TRX.  I'm a little nervous because I am not a good at things that require both strength and coordination.  If I get to go, I will have a full breakdown of each moment of humiliation for your reading pleasure.

Today I ate:



8 ounce green smoothie
2 cups of coffee (I've officially gotten used to unsweetened coffee.  In fact, I love it!  Goodbye to those daily empty calories)
10 almonds
8 ounce green smoothie
1 rhubarb muffin
Peppercorn crusted pork tenderloin
Roasted sweet potatoes and onions in balsamic vinegar
1 glass of wine

At least I did pretty well with what I ate.  I've noticed that if I take the time to plate my meals on the good dishes, it makes eating healthy more comforting and satisfying.  I wonder why that is?
