Today was a day of running around pretty much all day long. There was no time for a lunchtime walk, since I went to a retirement lunch for a friend whose last day was today. That meant eating out at a pub-type restaurant where I didn't make awful selections, but I also didn't eat a salad. I skipped the fries in favor of apple cole slaw so there was more in the way of vegetables. If I am not going to be conscious of caloric intake, at least I can try to give myself more nutrients, right? For dinner, I had a salad from Chick-Fil-A--again not awesome, but not god-awful either. It was the best I could do with today's busy schedule.
I dragged my tired kids to the gym and went to Zumba class, for which I am very glad--that was over 6000 much-needed steps in an hour! I also did some yoga at home--I desperately needed to stretch, and I kind of surprised myself by actually remembering the flow and order of things from class. I could hear Cathy's voice in my head telling me what to do. I think I am even accidentally learning the names of the poses and forms without really trying. More yoga == good.
