Vacation Day ONE

So I can honestly say I am pretty proud of myself. We were at the track most of the day today and I managed to be good and not eat any of the yummy food. Well, there was one thing....one of those frozen strawberry ice things. But we shared it four ways so it was only 80 calories!!!

After we got back from the track we got checked into our room, which is very nice I might add, then headed for dinner. We decided on the Old Spaghetti Warehouse. Before you think or say anything, I know, I know ~ Italian, not exactly the healthiest of food choices. I ordered the lasagna which was absolutely delicious but only ate a little over half of it. The biggest thing is I only had one, okay maybe two, pieces of their yummy bread.

When we got back we took the kids for a quick swim even though it was way past their bed time (9:15pm). After they were down for the evening I headed off to the workout room ~ yes I actually worked out while on vacation. I did the elliptical for 30 minutes which equated to 400 + calories burned (I can't remember the exact number) and a total distance of 5 miles. Wow ~ it had been a long time since I used a machine....when I got off I felt like my legs were still going :)

That wasn't it either ~ I came back up to the room and did my sit-ups too.....100 to be exact!!

Hopefully I stay on this healthy kick tomorrow. I don't expect to lose weight on vacation but it sure would be nice not to gain any back.
