I woke up this morning not as optimistic as I was last night! My final treat was a peppermint chip milkshake. Yum. I woke up hungry none-the-less. I started the day with a banana (1 fruit serving complete) and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on homemade whole wheat bread. My first nutritional surprise was that my strawberry preserves have high fructose corn syrup. Is that really necessary? Guess I should buy some fruit spread instead. I think I also learned that breakfast is one of my downfalls. I want to grab the first thing that I see because I am hungry, but often it is not a good choice. A Quaker Oats granola bar is just not a well-balanced breakfast even if it is washed down with coffee and perhaps preceded by a piece of candy.
That is as far as the New Year has come. Last night saw me in bed a half hour before the ball dropped. I was then awakened at 5:30 by Audrey complaining that her stomach hurt (an excuse perhaps to sleep with us?) and brought her to bed with us for some less restful sleep for one hour to be followed by nursing Kyle. I am a little tired. Planning to walk this afternoon when the temperature gets out of the teens. My shins are less sore and I am going to try my new shoes out on the road.
Hopefully I will be motivated enough to keep you updated. Maybe I'll become a blogger in 2010!! May you have a blessed New Year!!
