I’ve talked a lot about the Food Truck this week, but I’ve had good reason. Yesterday was crazy hot in that thing. Somedays we get a hint of a breeze coming in the truck, and other days nothing. Yesterday was a no breeze kinda day and with the grill, the oven and three burners going, it’s gets hot in there! Within just a few minutes of being there, I was sweating like crazy. That sounds so unappealing as far as the food goes. Basically, I wiped my face a lot with paper towels and I just kept drinking water.
Guess what exercise I did for the day? Hot Yoga. Yep. After four hours of sweating, I chose to sweat some more. I felt a bit dizzy in class. Don’t worry, I drank 140 ounces of water yesterday. I’m not really one of those people that sweats easily. Never have been. Yesterday, I think I made up for a whole life time of not much sweating.
I like to track my activity points, however, I’m a little disappointed at the options for activity in my Weight Watcher Tracker at times. There is no Hot Yoga option, only Yoga. I know that class earns me more than 4 Activity Points, but that’s what I’ll keep tracking. Oddly, if you run, while pushing a wheelchair, WW will help you track those points.
How many activity points for sweating? I don’t know how to know. Yesterday was likely one of those days that I should have eaten more than 26 points since I exercised hard. I got a lot of activity in on Wednesday too with Jazzercise class and mowing the lawn and only ate 26 points on that day too. I didn’t go to bed hungry either night? You now know what I’ll be asking at my WW meeting this morning!
Last night after Hot Yoga, I went to a Cabi clothing party. Yes. I went right after Yoga! No make up. Sweat and all. I knew what i wanted to order and that I wouldn’t be trying any clothes on, but I mention it because there was wine and there were snacks at the party, and I passed on those and drank 4 bottles of water instead.
Ahhh….that felt good.
Here are yesterday’s eats….
Breakfast – 6 PPV
Lunch – 6 PPV
Market Salad at the Food Truck. Larger than yesterday’s. Buried under all those greens…Sunflower Seeds and Feta.
Snack – 0 PPV
Strawberries at the Food Truck
Snack – 3 PPV
140 g Greek Nonfat Plain Yogurt with a few drops of Vanilla Stevia and Cinnamon mixed in. Topped with a Kiwi, Chia Seeds and a Honey drizzle.

I brought home this Chicken Salad Sandwich from the Food Truck with extra Chicken Salad packed in there. We had a lot of chicken salad left yesterday.
I ate all of the Chicken Salad and 1/4 of the Bun.
