I RAN A 5K!!!! WHOO WHOO!!!

Geezzzz, I have so much to say and instead of getting my blog post done first thing this morning, I met my dad for breakfast. Now it’s almost 5:00, and we have dinner plans with our son and daughter-in-law at 6:00, so this is short!

Today’s post will NOT be a meal plan. I apologize. My idea for the “21 Days of Simple Weight Watcher Meal’s”….has not been so SIMPLE these last few days. I ate well and I tracked my points, but what I’ve had has been far from any kind of “Meal Plan”. On Thursday I had breakfast at 11:00, and literally never ate another meal. I had small snacks. Friday, I never had breakfast, and lunch was a latte and a banana. Mike and I had plans for Friday night and I didn’t feel so great, so I sent him along without me, and I had PB&J for dinner.

Yesterday? I did eat breakfast, but I believe I have already included a Breakfast Egg Sandwich in my meal plan?? I was in a hurry to get out the door to meet my friends to RUN…not walk…in a 5K! Guess what?? I did it!!! I would say that at the One Mile mark, I stopped running and counted out 20 steps, then started running again. I did that at about the Two Mile mark as well. Then came a hill, and one of my friends and I walked to the top of the hill. We determined it to be about a block and half…..maybe. Then we ran. When I realized how close we were to the finish, I couldn’t beiveive it was almost over. I looked at her and I said…Holy Sh*t, I think I’d say we ran that. I know we stopped just for a few seconds, but I feel like really I ran it. Do you think we ran it? She’s like….uh, yes Julie, we ran it. WHOO!! WHOO!!!!

The rest of the day I accomplished more chores, inside and out, than I have in the last several weeks!!!!

Next weekend is the Color Run with my daughter in Dallas!! I’m so excited!!!

Anyhow, the rest of the day’s eats didn’t seem to me to be Meal Worthy to post in my 21 Day’s of Simple Weight Watcher Meal’s. Today has been odd as well. Big breakfast, no lunch, then dinner out. Lots and lots of yard work. I’ll spend tonight planning, and then I’ll get Charlotte to go grocery shopping with me tomorrow and get back at providing you all with some more simple and great Weight Watcher meal ideas!!!
