Just got back and it's good to be home! DH and I went to San Antonio to spend the weekend with my grandmother and we had a blast!

Friday we hit the road and stopped in West, Texas (the town's name is west) and got a Kolache (YUMMMY!) for lunch. When we got to San Antonio we went out to eat a a mexican food restaurant and I got 2 chicken enchiladas, grilled veggies, and salad. YUMMY! Of course there were also a few chips thrown in.

Saturday: Breakfast-none
Lunch: Olive Garden where I had stuffed shells with shrimp and salad. Of course half of it went home for dinner.
Dinner: the rest of my stuffed shells then we made brownies for dessert and I am proud to say I had a small piece with only a small scoop of ice cream and some magic shell on that. Not much of it at all. YUM!

Sunday:
Breakfast: brownie
Lunch: brisket, pinto beans, coleslaw, and a little potato salad
s-eclair (we stopped in West again)
d-harvest crisp chips and some cheese dip.

So all in all not a bad weekend and we had a fun time but it's nice to be home. Of course I can't wait till the next time I go back.

Congrats on being in the 140's!

That is cool about the elliptical. I bet you will get a ton of use out of it!

 

[Jane E.]

Beth, great job on hitting the 140's!!!!
Let me know how you like the elliptical machine. I'm still thinking about getting a treadmill.

 

[Blueeyes101817]

congrats on the 140s!!!!! its exciting isnt it?! You are doing a great job and i bet you will be happy with the elliptical--enjoy your night!!!!! keep it up!

This went from a great week to a bad week. *sigh* Don't know what the deal is I've just been in a bad mood overall but life goes on. I've done great with my eating but have not done so great with my workouts. I've gotten walks in at lunch but have had no motivation to run or go to the gym this week. I'm hoping I get over that by tomorrow.

 

[lovinaz]

Sometimes your body just needs a break. At least your eating is under control! You'll get back into the workout routine soon, don't worry!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Beth-hope you have a great weekend..make sure you take some time to relax and take some time for YOU!!!
