Day 4

As you can see, there was no Day 3 post. I was lazy yesterday. In all aspects. I didn't drink any water. Actually, I didn't drink much fluids at all. I had 3 cups of coffee, one can of soda and a 20oz Minute Maid Lemonade. Shame on me.

But, I am starting today right. I skipped the coffee and instead had hot green tea. I used my little tea cups, which actually holds 6oz of liquids. Which made sweetening the tea much easier. I only needed 2 packets of Truvia. Wow it was so much more pleasant than the coffee!! I'm not really saving any money by making the switch, but I am saving the calories.

I'm still making myself eat something for breakfast. Today that was simple, I actually woke up hungry. Which was perfect since I made Overnight Cranberry Oatmeal. That stuff was yummy! I only ate half cup worth. Which seemed plenty at the time. I love oatmeal, and it's a healthy choice. Though I'm sure the add-ins were not that healthy. I'll share what I added [to the slow cooker].

1 cup steel cut oats
2 cups 1% milk (it's what I had, normally I use skim)
2 cups water
2/3 cup white sugar
2/3 cup whole cranberries (if using frozen, reduce liquids by 3/4 cup--either milk or water)
1 tsp nutmeg

*cook on low for 6-8 hours. I recommend using a slow cooker liner*

Looks like I can't post much more. I'm about to grab some water and play some Wii Tennis. I'd like to make note that I have already done 34 minutes of Wii Routine Workout. I should probably skip the tennis, but I like playing that game. So, I'm actually doing that for fun, not to workout. That's just an added bonus.

I'll try to come back later and update. But if not, then at least we all know I did workout for at least 34 minutes, plus whatever I get from Wii Sports (tennis).
