85 Degree Weather

What a day! Brandon had his first soccer game today. It was so fun watching him run around and help the team out. He's at that age when sports start getting competitive. Unfortunately, his team lost today, but he was in good spirits afterwards.


It was pretty unusual to watch Spring soccer in 85 degree weather.  I might have gotten a sunburn on my forehead.  My face and lips feel tight, like I got too much sun.  I didn't think to grab sunscreen before we left, so we had to find shade for Ben to stay in while we watched the game.  I remember a couple years ago when Blair was in soccer and I sat in the car the whole time with the heater running because it was so cold.  This has been a strange Spring, indeed.  :)



We were on the go from the start this morning, so my eating has been a little nuts.  I had Special K Vanilla Almond with Silk for breakfast so I started out good, but I bought a small 5 ounce can of honey roasted peanuts to snack on while we watched the game and next thing I knew, I'd eaten them all.  800 calories worth of peanuts.  Needless to say, I was irritated with myself.  I'm not a big fan of nuts because you get so few for so many calories and I ate more than half of my daily calories in peanuts.  *sigh*

After the game, we took the kids to Pizza Hut and I had a couple slices of Veggie Lovers on thin crust, which is pretty decent in calories.  What did me in though was that I also ate a bunch of cheesy breadsticks.  Probably not something my waist and thighs really needed.  :/

I really need to get back on track.  My calories have been all over the place lately.  I didn't run today, either.  I just ran out of time.  I have to work early tomorrow, so I'm hoping to run in the afternoon.  I miss running.  I miss being active.

  1. The last couple days I had a P'zone from Pizza hut and a freakin mcdonalds bacon cheeseburger..I was like WTF am I doing?! Seems like you and I are self sabotagers. My run today felt so good, I faced all my food demons and lefts them all in the dust..at least for a time. I realized that I always eat like crap when I need to go grocery shopping so I'm working on that!

  2. Nuts are a healthy snack. Maybe you need more protein with your breakfast. I like to mix an egg white into my oatmeal for protein.
