I kicked weight watchers ASS today! Seriously.
Here was my day:
7:30 wake up, enjoy some what quiet time before baby wakes up
8:30 eat 1/2 cup egg beaters with salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder 1 point
9:00 hop in shower before baby wakes up
9:20 get out of shower to baby squawking
9:30 feed baby...get baby dressed...do dishes...play
11:15 take Aiden to school
11:42 drop Ian off at the YMCA Child Watch...a little nervously. I didn't quite trust that little old lady to be able to hold on to my squirmy almost 3 month old
12:00 Text Natalie b/c I am dying after only 12 mins on the bike. DYING.
12:13 I made it 23 mins, I'm done...plus I want to go see how Ian is doing
12:30 stop and get the BEST subway salad, sans meat. Seriously, veggies a little salt and pepper with FF Italian. So good! 2 points (I could have saved a point by skipping the cheese, but I got my ass to the gym, I deserved some shredded cheese damnit!)
I won't bore you with the rest...lets just say it involved me sending Aiden to his room for having yet another meltdown. Seriously, I love that child but he drives me freaking nuts! I wish we could go just one day without a freak out or me having to remind him to keep his attitude in check. UGH!!
Back to WW, I'll bitch about my 5 year old later. I was making broiled parmesan tilapia for dinner. Using my usual recipe it would have been 7 points just for the fish, not including side. OUCH! So, I altered the recipe for my piece, ditched the butter for spray butter, took out the mayo and only used a portion of the cheese. 4.5 points...plus 4 points for my rice and 0 for the broccoli.
Not too shabby and it tasted damn good.
Okay...so maybe when you don't eat crap all day and are actually hungry, anything will taste good...but whatever.
I treated myself to Ruggles Light ice cream...I still have 1.5 points left AND I didn't use my extra activity point.
TAKE THAT WEIGHT WATCHERS! Bring it on!
Speaking of kicking asses...Zumba starts on Tuesday. Yea, I'm pretty sure that is going to kick MY ass!!
Just another blog about surviving motherhood, marriage, and everyday ordinary life.

A day of firsts
I went back to work today. It wasn't as bad as I thought...and I only called to check on Ian twice. I'd say that's pretty good. It was actually weird not to be able to call and check on Aiden. I kept wondering how he was doing. Today was his first early day. Daycare in the AM, then Kindergarten and then back to daycare. Luckily he likes both and he got to see some kids from last year.
As for me...I wouldn't call work fun, but it wasn't horrible. It was quiet and stress free, oh how I wish every day were like that. I wouldn't mind working if that were the case!
Another first...I wasn't too hungry today AND I managed to drink all the water I'm supposed to. You see, in a month of WW I haven't lost much and I was getting discouraged. Plus, I'm officially no longer nursing...which means I lost 10 points. So now I don't have those 'snack' points. I had egg beaters for breakfast, roasted chicken salad from subway for lunch (but man that the chicken teryaki the girl I work with had looked GOOD) and I had whole wheat pasta with tomatoes, cucumbers, a little dressing and salt and pepper for dinner. It was actually pretty tasty and I still have points for frozen yogurt. It's my reward for being so good all day.
So while I am discouraged...I'm sticking it out. Plus, Zumba starts next week!!
Sorry, this was a pretty boring blog, but that's my update.
