A Good Day

Luckily I survived the tornadoes and they did not hit where I live. Other parts of the state have not been so lucky. The university I work for is pulling together to help Union University which suffered major damage.

My eating went pretty well today. I had a black bean burger sandwich on wheat bread with lots of veggies. It was good, but I think they fried the patty. Next time I will go with my standard tomato and avocado sandwich. I splurged and also had potato chips. They are just so yummy. They are crinkle cut kettle chips with salt and pepper. Yum!

I made it to the gym after work today too. 25 minutes of weights. 60 minutes on the arc trainer. 21 minutes on the treadmill. I came home and made myself a yummy chicken salad with crasains, pickles,onions, salt and pepper, dijonaise. I crunched up a small bag of apple chips. I served it over romaine lettuce.

Here are a few things that made me smile today: remember that the doorman at the hotel in Miami told me I "take to" Jessica Biel and getting my sandwich card double punched today at lunch. He doesn't do that for my co-workers. I think he might have a slight crush on me or something like that.

I was looking through one of my friend's pictures from the cruise. And I am really starting to notice that I see myself completely different then I appear. Or at least it feels that way. I feel like have rolls, stomach flab, and thunder thighs. While I still have some of this, I think my mind makes it out to be much worse then it is. The picture that made me realize this was one she took and I didn't know. I was relaxing in a lounge chair. I remember that moment feeling self-conscious about the way I looked even with a t-shirt on. But in the picture I looked normal. Now if only I can feel the way I really do look.
