I came home tonight from work and there was a plate of freshly baked double chocolate chunk cookies, that my hubby made, on the counter . I immediately helped myself to the delicious treat with the thought in the back of my head that I will take a 3 point hit for it. It was so worth it!!! Then I got to thinking just how many points it really was so I dug the package out of the trash....it was right on top...and when I calculated it it was indeed 3 points but the bonus was that the serving size was 2 cookies. I am enjoying my 2nd cookie as I type this and guilt free because I have so many points left over for the week. I promise that it will be the last one.....tonight anyway...tee hee hee!!! It is a rare treat though and something I definately wouldn't eat every day.
Didn't do any formal exercise today but did spend half an hour playing with the Kinect. (Outdoor Adventures) I worked up quite a sweat and feel like I got a good workout in while having so much fun. What a wonder this new technology is!! I also made my 10,000 steps today again thanks to my job. It consists of a lot of walking, bringing the product from department to department stuff like that.
I gotta get to bed now as I have a 5K to walk/jog tomorrow for the "Bloggers Healthy Heart Weekend Challenge" I am greatful to have a healthy heart now but it wasn't always the case. I suffered with Wolfe Parkinson's White Syndrome for many years since I was a pre-teen till I was 35 years old. I had frequent and sudden tackycardia attacks during that time in my life and it was a very scary thing. At 35 I underwent a radio frequency cardiac ablasion on my heart and I was cured. I thank God for that technology and for my Dr. who performed the procedure. I am almost 51 now and I am thankful everyday that I have a normal functioning heart and that I am capable of doing normal exercise without the fear of those attacks. I have been given a great gift and I intent on taking good care of my healthy heart!! So off to bed now for me...night all!
I am a "Lifetime Member" not only of Weight Watchers but in my real life also. I have always struggled with weight issues and gone up and down on the scale many times in my adult life. It is a lifetime struggle for a lifetime of good health. I hope to hear from all of you "repeat offenders", as I call myself, and also those of you who are just starting out on this journey. I don't have all the answers but maybe together we can find them.
