We played softball in the humid hot weather... I played one inning and my cotton t-shirt was soaked down the front. It was a late game so at least we didn't have to deal with the sun as it was setting when the game began. We lost by 1 point and it seemed to be the fastest game we'd ever played. We normally get to bed by 9:30/10pm and lights out by 10:30/11pm at the latest if the book I'm reading is hard to put down, but last night even with the really fast game and no trip to the bar afterwards I still ended up with lights out close to midnight...
This morning I woke up sore, groggy and wanting way more sleepy time. Oh well the shower helped ... along with the light blended frappaccino :) I think I still feel another coffee in my future to be able to make it through this work day.... ZZZzzzzz huh? oh sorry about that.. I was pondering about what to write about next and kind of zonked out.. *ahem*
Ok, so, I was about to say... went over my points yesterday because we went for coffee and I splurged on a muffin and a cappuccino even though I'd already planned my Pad Thai lunch... so that was a double whammy that my points + activity points couldn't cover, but I'm proud to say that I looked over my points history for the week and I only used 5 points (yesterday) of my flex points! The extra points I used all came from activity points and even those weren't all used up each day.... I should go back and see how many activity points I ate... just to see if the flex points would have covered me as well....um, nope, went back and did some calculations and my flex points wouldn't have been enough... I would have used all my flex + 14.4 activity points as well.... wow... I need to exercise more and eat less... who woulda thunk it DUHHHH
I read in a few places that if you eat your activity points, you should only eat half of what you earn... so although this week I didn't really dip into the flex points, I need to make it a POINT to not eat almost all the activity points as well... aiming for consuming only half of them should be good.
*sigh* I need a nap.. STAT

Oh, man softball in this heat would be more than I can take. Looks like you did okay on your points. I am learning to get more food for my points. Veggies seem to be the lowest in points. Like your post today..
