Susan- Thanks for the tip and I was thinking the same thing so I didn't offer it to him. Plus I worried if he had a reaction at night too. I froze two trays full and saved a little for him to try tomorrow. I also made peas tonight and froze one tray of those to try later this week.
Christine- You are such a machine! I don't know where you get the energy for all these runs. I feel like such a peon. Your dinner sounds soooo good! I am hoping to feel better tomorrow so I can cook a few healthy meals for the week so I can get back on the wagon.
Good luck Melanie on your 8 miler! You will kick butt!
Off to try and put James down so I can get some rest tonight. Didn't really get anything done but the baby food.

Finally a couple of minutes. Whew. DH was super crabby when i got home...he must have had a tough day with the kiddos....so i packed them all up and drove Jory's friend home (he spent the night last night). DH refused to do it....I'm not going to get down on him, b/c he's normally soooooo good about driving kids around....but I didn't have time to eat dinner, so grabbed a pan sized pizza at gas station. I was full after 1/2 but gluttoned down the whole thing. EEK!!
Christine, your run sounds tough. Protein bar? I thought the energy gel would do best for keeping energy up during long runs? Should I bring both? i have a couple cliff bars. It looks like I might be running with my new running buddy & two other gals.
I'm so sorry that cancer took your mom, especially at such a young age. I cannot imagine the pain of growing up mom-less. (hugs)(hugs).....your mom must have been marvelous b/c you are a natural!
Jen, I"m glad your thing went well. You sound exhausted, girlie! Get some rest!
Susan, I'm glad you liked the cookies. I made it with 1/2 butter 1/2 smart balance. I like smart balance...but maybe you dont? Have you made cookies with oil before? I like the cookies a little too much...I've gained a couple lbs since I started eating them. There won't be another batch for a very long time! LOL I loved haley's pic!!!
Precilla, you're so sweet to think of me & my Dad. You are right about the distance. It hurts to hear my mom (and dad) being in so much pain & I can't physically touch them. I'm planning a long weekend at the end of April to visit.
Hi Lisa & Allison!
Today's Eats
B: egg beaters, cilantro, black beans, lowfat cheddar, coffee, 2 flaxseed toast
S: Abs Trail Mix
L: 1/2 chicken sandwich, guacamole, swiss cheese, spinich. 1 cup veggie soup, milk
S: 4 lactation cookies
S: the other 1/2 sandich, diet pop
S: Fiber One Bar
D: pan pizza, 1 lactation cookie
Those THREE snacks after lunch was a poor substitute for dinner that I ended up having anyway. I also wanted to make sure i got enough carbs in today for my long run tomorrow. It wasn't very busy at work today, thus the nibbling too. Urgh. Feel just awful about the eating though! Tomorrow's another day!
