My headache was tolerable during our trip, but the meds the doctor prescribed haven't fully eased the pain. We did a lot of lounging about this weekend, which was a nice way to spend 3 days. Saturday we spent some time in Hood River at the market and shopped at the little stores, Sunday we found a few geocaches and hung around camp and Monday we packed up and headed home.

So Grace and I are both in agreement that we could definitely improve our eating habits. I tend to do really well for a week or two and then fall right off the wagon. Tonight after work I stopped at the store and bought a ton of fresh produce and plan on making up a huge salad tonight, along with some chicken, and have it all ready to go for our lunches the next few days. I'm counting every calorie I put in my mouth and I AM going to get results! As for exercising, it has been hard to do much with the pounding headache but I'll get there. Thankfully the weather forecast looks good the next couple of days and Grace and I have walking on the agenda for our lunch break tomorrow. I'm glad she is so supportive!!!!!
Well, I've got salad to make tonight for lunch tomorrow, and dinner to put away, and kittens to take care of and a little girl to get ready for bed so... I'm off for tonight. Good night all.
sounds like you all had a blast camping! i can't believe you took 4 kittens with you... how funny! love your idea of chicken and salad... before moving in with matt i used to make up a bunch of salads in tupperware on sunday and buy a roasted chicken, then i'd have lunches all week! romaine kept really well for the week, and no tomatoes. then, i'd have olive oil and balsamic at work - works great! also, we do a lot of quinoa, instead of rice or pasta - less carbs, more protein. keep up the good work!!
ReplyDeletep.s. i thought the pic of the kittens was a bunch of chipmunks at first... ha ha!!
ReplyDeleteoh, and walking at lunch is great! i miss that...
Yeah, I'm not supposed to eat rice, Brown or white an absolutely no pasta. Have you tried quinoa pasta? It is great and my naturopath approves. We buy it in the bulk food section. I like to saute garlic up in olive oil and add it to cooked quinoa pasta with fresh basil, tomatoes and peas... Yummy.
ReplyDeleteI love camping! It looks like you guys had fun and the kittens are too cute!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on not gaining weight over the weekend :)
