Sunday Funday

This week has been better. I still could have made some better decisions, but I made it to the gym and did the workouts my trainer gave me, and I finally feel like I am maybe starting to see some muscle definition come back.

It is so amazing how quickly you can get off track. I mean I had a freaking heart attack just over six months ago, and to see how quickly I can slip back into my old lifestyle is amazing. So I'm getting back on track. Working out with trainer helps sooooo much because I have someone else motivating me, and I don't want to go back and give her a bad report card!

So this week before I went to the grocery store, I made a list of meals I wanted for the next week or so. I need to get back to cooking more!

Sunday breakfast has always been mine and Jason's thing. It is our favorite meal and we usually go out. We used to go to the Big Biscuit every Sunday, but after my heart attack we have only been there maybe twice because they don't have many healthy options. So now if we go out we usually go to First Watch or somewhere like that. Yummmmm. But this morning I decided to cook at home. I made oatmeal pancakes and egg whites. It wasn't bad. Don't get me wrong, it was no buttermilk pancake. But even Jason cleaned his plate. Normally I don't use syrup, but I did use a little bit of sugar free this morning to help offset the oatmeal, lol.

This afternoon we went to the royals game. It was such a beautiful day for it. And tonight we grilled out. So double yum.

We are moving in a few weeks, so I constantly feel like I should be cleaning or packing or something productive, but I have been so exhausted all week since I got back from my work trip. Right now I'm sitting in my office with crap all around me, lol.

So here's to hopefully an even better week. Maybe I'll be brave enough to weigh myself in the morning. :)
