I passed the test of football field food!

Yes…..I did it.  I did not order nachos, I did not have a hot dog, I did not have any soda.  I did, however opt of a soft pretzel and stuck with water.  That was a victory for me.  Any of you parents that have kids in sports knows what I mean about the concession stands being your link for food all season.  For me my seasons run together…….4 playing baseball/softball…..3 playing football 1 playing fall softball…..3 playing basketball.  The food is alllllll around you.  So this was my first test since my recommitment and I passed….a proud moment for me.

I have another test today.  My neighbors invited me and the kids to dinner tonight.  Every couple of weeks, we all get together for dinner and when this neighbor cooks…..he cooks amazing things.  It will be interesting.  I will bring a healthy choice over there for a side dish (just not sure what yet) and I will eat a large salad before I go over to help curb me a bit. 

As for exercise…..still on restriction due to the knee, but I have been doing my living room.  Spackling and priming and today i am on to painting.  Trust me, I feel it in my arms.

    Good job! I do know how hard it is to pass up the concession food. My daughter cheers for the football team so it is always around. We go to NFL games too and that is hard for me not to run to the concession for some nachos! Seems as though football and junk food go together but we can keep on maing smart choices! Good for you and good luck with the dinner tonight!
