We Kin Get Thin!

Most delicious thing I've eaten this week :

MMmmMmmMm!

Tuesday, after training I came sloggin' home and the most amazing thing happened!
DINNER WAS READY FOR ME! :-)  Joel & Adam combined forces and had dinner ready!
We had BBQ pork, coleslaw, and sweet tater fries.  It was so unbelievably delicious!


Now I know why Joel loves me so much!  It's the nicest thing to come in the door to fresh, hot food just for you :-)

I actually convinced Joel to come to the track with me yesterday. (for those just tuning in, Joel doesn't exercise. And most definitely not with me) So it blew my mind when I asked him to come and he said "Hrmmm. OK" I assured him it'd be a quick and easy workout and he could just walk if he wanted to.

I started to jog and he was right beside me. I looked over again, and he was gone. But then I see him, pull right back up next to me :-). He finished the first lap with me, but he said he was wanting to stop yards before. He only finished out the jog because I did. What a nice feeling... to know that pushed someone just by pushing myself. I wasn't doing it to affect him, or to beat him. I was doing it because that was my plan and I stick to my plan. And that alone made him want to try :) How nice is that?

We did the rest of our walk/jog/sprint business and headed back home. I was proud of him :) I wish he'd come again!

Today was mine and Joel's 5th anniversary. It was a nice day :-)
I planned a secret indoor picnic. I set up a fluffy white blanket, 30 tiny candles, a vase full of flowers and a spread of his fave dish from one of our favorite restaurants. It was really nice! Afterwards, we exchanged gifts (I got an iHome radio! yay!)
Anyway, I know this isn't diet related, but hey, it was sweet! I did, however drink a flute full of sparkling white grape juice, and 1 "slice" (1/3 serving) of a Toblerone chocolate bar that I got Joel for dessert.

Yes, I suppose that counts as cheating, and no, I don't feel guilty ;-)

Tomorrow is another big workout and back to the daily grind! But oh, it was nice to have a special day with my special man!
