Arrowroot

The root of all evil? I was having an amazing day yesterday - both food and activity and then I decided with my cheese stick I would have 3 arrowroot cookies. I figured out the points and I went downstairs with my snack and I was fine....until I got up 2 more times for more cookies. Why? I brought a banana to the gym with me and shared it with Grace before we came home. I then put her to sleep and made my grilled cheese sandwich with carrot sticks and a sliced apple. I drank a 16oz. glass of water and was relaxing while Grace slept. I flt fine but then the hunger set back in. I had my snack and thought I would be fine but I guess not.After Grace woke up we walked (3.9K) to my inlaws and I think I maybe did too much. I am going to be taking a rest day today because my back is hurting and I don't want to hurt myself.

I have made good choices so far this morning and will get out to the mall for some light walking. I need to pick up a couple more sippy cups for Grace so I can keep up with the milk and water that she is going to need. She took her first nap without nursing today and it went pretty well. A bit of crying but not too much. Well she is waking up so I had better go get her! Have a great day!

  4. I do the same thing sometimes- measure out a snack and then keep going back for more. I've never had those cookies!

  5. I definitely have a hard time stopping with sweets if I let myself start... It's a tricky balance. Good luck - sounds like you're doing great being active!!
