Happy Friday!

Not to mention its the last weekend of shopping before Christmas! Whew...where the heck did this year go? Where the heck did this month go? Crazy!!!

I went to th gym this morning and we did our usual weights and what-not. My trainer told me that beginning in January, she wants to increase my cardio, not the time just the intensity! Can't wait for that but hey, lets face it, I have a sexy "mother-of-the-bride" gown to get into in March so I will be doing whatever she tells me to.

Nothing much going on today...working until 1 than I am going to get some kind of facial that is going to make me look 20 years younger..hmmm...we'll see about that! I may be going out to dinner tonight with my neighbors who are in town from Canada. We love them but they are always a last minute kind of couple so it makes it a little hard to plan my eating for the day. That being said, so far my eating will be looking like this:

B: Greek Yogurt, Kashi Go Lean Cereal
L: Tuna with mayo on some lettuce
S: S.E.I. Chocolate Mounds Bar protein drink (YUMMERS!!!)
Skim Milk
Calories: 545
Protein: 84

This actually leaves me with plenty of calories for dinner and I will just have to come back later and add it in!

I feel so much better when I am not ingesting empty calories such as christmas cookies! Yes, they are good but man, they really make me feel a lot more like Santa than I care to!

Mounds protein shake, as in chocolate and coconut? I might actually be up for a shake if that's the case, please share. I have so much Christmas shopping to do, oh the life of one who procrastinates!

I have found that it is easier to order what I really want now and really enjoy the couple of good bites to the fullest. I also am increasing my water before eating as another stop gap. You are doing great tracking and making good choices!!
Enjoy your friends!

Thanks for the recipe. As for the mug rug, I just googled mug rug tutorials and got lots of ideas and some instruction. It's mostly up to you. The basic size is around 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 . You can applique or stitch together scraps in a design and then use batting and a backing and quilt if desired and bind the edges or fold over and stitch. If you make some post the pictures okay?
