Tired but pleased…

I was pleased with myself last night.

I was tired yesterday, really wasted after water aerobics. Speaking of which, I just couldn't bring that up to peak level... though I did try hard. Probably because of the hard intervals the day before. I did swim a quarter mile after though.

I was tempted to do a second shake last night, when I was waiting for hubby to get back home, instead of my planned chicken/broccoli dinner, I'd even started to get out the measuring cups and then I stopped, asked myself if the shake was a better idea than the chicken and told myself no. Then I got out the chicken, spice rubbed it, grilled it up while steaming the broccoli, made a nice lemon juice/olive oil/garlic drizzle for the broccoli and dinner was good.

Days when I am tired are the hardest... that's when it's easier to not have my veggies, or grab for snack foods like cheese, nuts, peanut butter, etc... but I didn't.
