Reunion and Last Week’s Workouts

My husband has three siblings that live in Florida and on Saturday night we met up with two of them and their spouses. We had a delicious salmon dinner at my brother-in-law and sister-in-law’s house. It’s crazy that a whole year has gone by since we were last together. I am grateful that we had the chance to reconnect. One sister-in-law looks great; she was doing the Keto diet and lost 20 pounds.

Any time anyone talks about diet, exercise, nutrition - that starts me thinking. For one thing, we bought two half gallon containers of ice cream our first night on vacation because they were BOGO (Buy One get One Free). I ate my half gallon in 5 nights, even though the nutrition info said 12 servings. I definitely want to cut down on sugar. I looked it up and according to the American Heart Association the maximum for women is 25 grams a day. 

Last night we ate at Mission BBQ. I had the 5 bone rack of ribs (I got 6😁) with green beans and bacon, cornbread and Diet Pepsi. It was delish! I had a chocolate pop tart for dessert.

However it is Monday and that means it’s time to rein it in.

Last week’s workouts: On Wednesday I ran 3 miles and did some weights, on Friday I ran 3 miles and on Saturday I swam 50 laps. Both runs were on the treadmill at our condo fitness center because Florida = Hot. Swim was outdoors. Weather continues to be perfect!

Thank you for reading!
