Monster and I took off on Friday night for Kansas City, MO to spend the weekend with my family. My brother and his family drove in from Hutchinson, KS and my mom and sister drove in from Des Moines. It was half way for both of them and a quick flight for me to get there. We had a wonderful time. From shopping on the Plaza, spending some time with Bethie and a solid BBQ experience from Oklahoma Joes, it was a perfect weekend.
The wins from the weekend:
Seeing my family
Spending time with Maggie and Sammy
Monster and I exchanging V-Day gifts
Eating Oklahoma Joes BBQ - This restaurant is in a gas station! Check out the pic.
Working out on a Saturday am on vacation
My losses:
Failing on my diet...
One thing my family never does is starve while on vacation. Food is always the topic of conversation while on a trip. It's hard with children b/c they always need to eat. You can't skip a meal with them. Our whole day revolves around where we are going to eat and what time. I was stuffed last night when I went to bed!
When we got back yesterday, we rushed to Kyle's to watch the super bowl. The spread there was awesome too! Someone made a ridiculous pulled pork in the slow cooker. There were plenty of dips, chips, sweets...you name it!
I was ready to start my Monday with a good work out and healthy diet. Xport was calling my name. I did about 40 minutes of cardio and abs this morning before heading into work. It was so nice to sweat it out!
I am trying to eat light today as tonight I am meeting CP for din at Chicago Q. I have been so excited to try this new restaurant. I will have a full recap for you tomorrow on the menu items we try.
My meal plan for the day:
Pre-gym - cereal bar
Breakfast - Soy sausage sammy on ww english muffin
Lunch - soup and salad
Snack - I brought an orange, but not sure I will be hungry for a snack
Din - CHICAGO Q!!!
Talk to you tomorrow!
