Weekend success! Days 5 & 6

This weekend had the potential to throw us off track! We left the house Sat. morning with the intention of heading to our local Farmers market and back home. What happened was an adventure of garage saling, time with friends and night away from home. We never made it to the market, and spent a good chunk of time running around thinking of how to get lunch/dinner into K and myself without going against my goal.

Turns out I managed to do just fine! Our biggest cheat was a bag of dried mangos for K while enjoying a late afternoon coffee stop (and yes, I would have REALLY liked to have a carmel macchiato). Well, that and the hard candy the gal at the nail salon kept offering to K! I could only tell her no so many times while it was literally placed under her nose. Then K went to play at my sisters house through dinner while I headed out to a pro soccer game (my first). Although I didn't expect anyone else caring for K to adhere to my new crazy diet restictions I feel confident that her dinner was still of a much higher nutritional content then most! I myself stopped by home for dinner and kept to my plan while at the game!

Sunday was a lot easier! I am finding the biggest challenge to a diet such as this is not the times at home, and prepared meals or snacks but the spontaneous outings! Even going out can be done under the "plan" if thought is put into it. For example, at church today walking in K wanted her cookie or doughnut but knowing that would be available to her I planned ahead to bring her a fresh hot muffin. Not quite the same, but, her body will thank me for it right!?! maybe???
