Sing it with me guys
"Blame it on the rain, yeah....yeah..."
Milli Vanilli would have been ashamed of me...
Yesterday was a no good kind of day. It started out like usual, breakfast, blog, cleaning up..and then all of the sudden the sky started getting darker, and darker...and my netflix drew me to the place in front of the TV and I never left (except to go cook for myself and the family)
Did it help I tried to do a few leg lifts while laying in bed watching "Sons of Guns" reruns??
I'll keep telling myself it'll count. Cleaning counts as cardio SHELLY!! (sheepishly grins)
I thought I was going to be brilliant and trick my family yesterday since they were ADAMANT on me making two seperate meals. I being the lazy bum I turned into yesterday, had already made two seperate breakfasts, two seperate lunches and by damn I wasn't about to do that for supper. So I took out the homemade italian gravy (sauce) I had made from friday night, and I began heating it up, and trying to mash down the chunks of tomato that hadn't reduced. I cooked up a package of ground turkey (the ONLY ONE I HAVE LEFT btw) and season it well, and then boil the crap out of the wheat pasta I had.
You see, if you boil the bejesus out of it...it turns white. and doesn't resemble cardboard. Yippee!
So it looked just like a normal pot of spaghetti with rotini noodles. The kids come up and make heaping bowls, and then begin to eat.
Michaela, actually ate at it for a few minutes...all while dumping crazy amounts of parmesan on it because "this sauce is nasty momma"
Caitlin...hahaha. She wasn't fooled. Not one bit. She's my picky eater and she took one nibble and said "this meat is not hamburger meat, this pasta tastes horrible and this sauce is nasty".
I was already done eating. (I measured 1 cup of the mixture and ate it)
So I wasn't going to argue with them, I admitted the changes to the spaghetti and they both got up and made themselves ramen noodles. All while making several comments about how "they don't wanna go on a diet just because I am".
WORD TO THE WISE...IT IS HARD TO CHANGE UP MEAL PLANS ON TEENAGERS.
Joe ate the dinner, but I was a tad bit heavy handed with the italian seasoning with cracked red pepper in it, so it was HOT. I got lectured on how I would have an ulcer before I'm 35 if I don't learn how to lay off the spicy stuff. ;) I love you joe. I'll make your food extra bland next time. :P'
So I'm logging in my meals, water etc on myfitnesspal app, and the calories from the wheat pasta and stuff was not very reassuring to me, but I know I didn't eat a full CUP of just the pasta (400 calories) I literally measured 1 cup of the meat/pasta/sauce already mixed up. So maybe I could sleep that night if I kept telling myself that. :( No workout was done...and I feel super guilty about it so I will be doing two workouts today.
Day 9 is here and it is raining and COLD now. So I shall once again have to keep myself occupied INSIDE. I need a treadmill, or a bicycle. Oh a bike would be awesome. I could watch tv and go long distances :D Well, I'm off to drink the fiber drink this morning. Have a good one!!
