Pizza and Ice Cream

You'd think by the title of this post that I'd had a bad day, eh? NOT TRUE! It's been a fantastic day! I got my yoga in while the kids napped AND I got all my water in today.

The coolest thing, though, is that I knew there'd be a few indulgences this evening and I PLANNED for them. We went out for pizza and I knew I wanted to have dessert here at home after the kiddos went to bed. So, I took had oatmeal, a banana & 1/2 a cup of milk this morning for breakfast. It was more than adequate. Then I had a small snack mid-morning. For lunch I ate a big salad w/ fat free dressing. So that meant that tonight I could have the pizza I wanted AND the bowl of ice cream I'd been planning for.

Is this how normal people do it? I mean, do they think, "Hey I'm gonna rock out a little tonight and have some ice cream. I'll take it easy at lunch." If that's the case, then maybe I can be "normal" some day too. Because even though I didn't technically WANT to just eat salad for lunch, I knew I'd enjoy my pizza and a little ice cream (which I topped off with about a cup of frozen mixed berries I heated in a sauce pan with about a tsp of sugar. UN. FREAKING. REAL.)

I feel so proud of myself, which is something you don't often hear me say. But I am. I planned, I stuck with the plan, and I felt so satisfied and accomplished.

Yeah. Take THAT, Tuesday.
