I had to work early this morning, so we didn't get up and head to the gym like we usually do. Instead, we got up, had some Special K Vanilla Almond Cereal with skim milk, and then I got ready and headed to work. For lunch I had some walnuts, raisins, and dried cranberries with a protein shake. After I got home, Ray and I went to the gym. We stayed for an hour. I did interval training again today. Warm up for 5 minutes, run for 90 seconds, walk for 90 seconds, run for 3 minutes, walk for 3 minutes, repeat twice, then cool down walk for 5 minutes. I just kept my cool down walking up for an extra 20 minutes ;) I definitely feel accomplished.

My weight this past week has been really up and down. I didn't understand why because I haven't done anything different. Well, come to find out (and hopefully this helps you in case you have the same problem) your body retains water while on your period! Which in turn will obviously make you gain weight. Now, I'm off my period and I've lost four lbs overnight. Craziest thing ever. I can't wait to upload my picture on Thursday for you guys :)

For dinner tonight, I had a delicious piping hot bowl of tomato soup with a hot turkey and non fat cheese sandwich on a sandwich thin with a little bit of mustard. It totally it the spot. Tomato soup is definitely my comfort food

As of now, I'm sitting here with Ray watching Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives.. while wishing all of this delicious food was in my belly. Sigh. I'll catch you guys tomorrow! Good night!
