Day 19 was great. I woke up to find I was in no pain whatsoever!! Read Blog 18 about my back strain. However, I decided to still take it light on the exercising. My exercise today was cleaning my kitchen (pic attached) for thirty minutes while walking non-stop (walking in place during some moments). When I was done I did ten minutes of light stretching. My kitchen looked great (!)...but I felt like I wanted a more intense exercise. I haven't even made it to day 21 and my body is already habitually craving a workout.
So on day 19 I exercised by moving non stop in cleaning my kitchen for thirty minutes. Also, I did ten minutes of full body stretching.
For breakfast I ate two sliced apples, a bagel and a bowl of cold cereal. I drank two cups of water before breakfast and two cups of water after breakfast.
For lunch I ate watermelon, two hotdogs, a hamburger, baked beans, plain chips, two cookies and two juices. Dang!! Can ya'll tell I was at a picnic. Okay...let me explain that I split all of that with my two toddlers. Smiling! So I actually consumed very little...only tasting everything listed.
For a midday snack I had a plate full of fruit; strawberries, watermelon (again...yayy), melons, pineapples and grapes. My best friend from grammar school, Nefertitti Muhammad found me via my sister Tasha's facebook profile (I'm not on facebook...yet). Nef had her babyshower today so I attended to support her. I miss you Nef, girl!. Love ya! Well, I had my midday snack at her party.
For dinner I had Harold's Chicken. Yummy! I treated myself to two wings, a little fries and one slice of bread then saved the rest for somebody in my household to eat.
I didn't do well with water consumption. I had only six cups of water.
Until day 20...take a moment out of this day to pamper yourself...even if it's only for ten minutes.
