The Bodice Challenge: Day 8

Between the garage sale and a long awaited appointment with the Ear/Nose/Throat Doctor, today was pretty hectic, but still did reasonably well :)

Breakfast: Cinnamon Chex with Skim Milk

Lunch: Natural Peanut Butter and Homemade Jam on Italian bread with fat-free yogurt

Dinner: Mikey wanted Chinese, so we went to a nearby Chinese Buffet. I disciplined myself to not have any lo mein, or anything fried, just rice, meat, and veggies, and a few steamed dumplings.

Snack: One small serving of gelato

I forgot to take my blood pressure this morning because we were so busy setting up for the garage sale, will do it tomorrow morning.

Exercise: All the lifting and carrying for the garage sale, multiple trips up and down the stairs, etc.

The garage sale used all my creative energy today, but we made a decent chunk of $ and it's only the first day, so it paid off :)
