For the love of Legos, and Dateline

Fridays are suppose to be my day off - from work, from working out, etc. But since I just started this, I thought I would still walk tonight, especially since tomorrow is a bit of an unknown as far as plans and opportunities. I spent too much time trying to thread my new sewing machine, so Mr. O got to bed later than planned, which put my time with the J man back. I think I love legos almost half as much as him, which is a lot! So we were building and having fun and time got away from me again. Well worth it, since our time gets so limited during tax season. I came downstairs just after Dateline started (which I was recording), and I decided on a whim I would watch it and skip my walk, day off and all. Sitting in front of the tv is a trigger eating time for me. I tried a healthy snack, but it was bland. I tried a sweet snack, a candy cane, and that was yummy, but it must have triggered something, cause I kept wanting more. So while I ate more than planned (after not exercising as planned), I didn't eat near what I used to. I know from the last couple of days that I am much stronger if I walk before tv, so I think that's how it will have to be. Or watch it upstairs in the bedroom where I won't be able to access the kitchen so easily.

all in all a good day.
