Sunday - BOTT Cafe & Cardio

Good morning (or evening!) BOTT!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend.  I've been sick for so long that since I'm feeling a little bit better, I want to go and play....do something fun.  I need to write a couple of articles for the magazine so I'm trying to decide.  I know!  Maybe I'll go play and wait to be inspired.....I think I'd heard that excuse from my kids before and I didn't buy it with them!  Maybe I'll flip a quarter - anyone have a double headed quarter??!!  My husband told me he could tell I was feeling a little better because I was feisty.  (Is that good or bad?!)

Anyway, here's my check in for today:

CARDIO:  Getting out of the house and doing something easy???!!!

FOOD:
B - 1/2 cup of cottage cheese
S - Turkey jerky
L - Turkey and White Cheddar Kruncheez
S - Veggies
D - Egg Beaters
S - Power Crunch bar

Have a BOTT day!

Cathy

I have got to get some of those White Cheddar Kruncheez!!

Hi Cathy,

Oh boy, "feisty" can be fun....  "Feisty" is a great way to burn calories and  you said you were not well enough to exercise          

Ok, Ok, I know  

I will be doing some running around today and we are meeting up with my son later for dinner.  So I will hit the bag late tonight.

B - trying some of that light prune juice with digestive stuff in it, egg omlet with turkey sausage
S- fruit with LF cheese
L - salad with chicken and TraderJoe's NF dressing
S - protein bar
D - depends where we go...will let you know
S - TBD

Have a great day BOTT's!

Take care,
Kathy

Cathy, I vote for going out and waiting to be inspired..   You need to ge tthe fresh air, etc.. its tough when you are not feeling well... I hope you do something fun.

I was up (kinda / sorta) last night.. I was trying to watch some silly movie on TV.. I know I dozed thru most of it and finally gave up at 2 a.m.    I finally got out of bed between 8:30 an 9 which is late for me on a normal day.    I'm sitting here looking out the window watching a light snow falling.. It looks so pretty, I may have to go out and venture in it..  I might even go for an outside walk ...  we shall see how the day proceeds

B - finished a protein drink I started last night
L - chicken bruschetta - about 1/2 a cup  (chicken, basil, diced tomatoes, garlic, mozz cheese & stove top stuffing.. I need to find a better substitute for the stuffing)
S - protein drink
D - I think tuna salad wrap.. not sure yet

Enjoy your Sunday.. Maria

Hi Cathy,

Lunch - Protein drink
Snack - Ham and cheese roll
Dinner - Beef tips in red sauce and salad
Snack - 1/2 fage
Have a great day!
Deb

Cathy - it seems to me you really have no choice - write your article on the importance of play (and it is absolutely true that it is as important to play as to work) and any good journalist RESEARCHES their information.  So - go play and consider it research!

I'm so glad you are on the mend!  What a long siege you have had and you have remained a BOTTer thorough it all

Just got back from a 3.2 mile walk in the mall.  Yesterday I had planned to walk 3 miles in the park but I had a mega energy drain - haven't been getting my B-12 in like I usually do - so had to stop at 2 miles.  I felt good that I was back to being able to walk 3. 

Am having a fine BOTT day as I hope all of you are.

Thought for the day - The world isn't fair or I would burn 1000 calories with each load of laundry I do

Will be back checking in tomorrow  Thanks for being there for and with me  You're the cream of the crop
