Day 4 recap

19.5 eaten
4 AP earned

This cold is kicking my ass. I was feeling pretty good yesterday morning. I had a 30 minute walk to the state office and even went to the gym at lunch and did weights for 35 minutes. Something happened on the way back from the gym. I became really lightheaded, felt exhausted, and was sick to my stomach. I realized I had only had about 3 points (egg beaters with veggies for breakfast + spinach salad with chicken for lunch) up until that time so I tried eating the other "half" of my lunch - a garden burger with laughing cow cheese, chipotle and red bell peppers. I usually really enjoy this for lunch, but it tasted awful. I choked it down hoping it would make me feel better, but it didn't. Then I ate a WW yogurt. I hoped the sugar (or fake sugar) would help. I was able to get home and crawl in bed. THANK GOODNESS I had thrown something in the crockpot in the morning. Mike was able to feed the kids easily. (It was totally points friendly - skinless, boneless chicken breasts, black beans, corn and salsa - we were supposed to add cheese and/or ff sourcream and it them as wraps, but no one wanted to do that, they just ate it out of a bowl). Anyway after my nap I had 1 cup, maybe 1 1/2 cups of the mixture for dinner, watched Project Runway, ate a WW ice cream bar and was going to go to bed. At this point I think I was at 14 points. For some reason I really wanted sugar. I finished off the last 8 candy corn pumpkin things, logged the 5 (yikes!) points and went to bed. I still feel crappy today, but at least I have some energy. Not sure if I'll be able to ride tomorrow, but I'm not ready to cancel it yet.
