I had the urge to blog

Lately it seems like I've been alternating between eating well and not working out or working out and not eating well. It's been the latter the last few weeks. I have been going to the gym regularly. And I try to make healthier choices when it comes to food - but if I'm honest, I haven't been trying that hard.

I went to Publix last night to stock up on healthy options. $70 later, I'm good to go. Sounds like a lot but I had NOTHING. I had been eating a healthy breakfast but was totally out of yogurt, granola bars & fruit. I typically eat a healthy dinner (chicken and two vegetables), but lunch is my downfall.

I have to plan ahead if I want to stay on track. So I bought some whole wheat tortillas, low fat lunch meat & low fat cheese for my lunches. I also bought all the fixins' for a veggie filled salad to accompany that. I got lots of fruit for breakfast and snacks. [Guess who's eating an apple right now. What!]

Maggie and I are going to a Power class at the gym tonight. I know it won't be a cakewalk but I'm excited. I feel happy. Hopeful. And full of apple.
