Happy Wednesday, guys! Hope you are having a good one! As for me, I scheduled another massage with Katherine for this afternoon. (I can’t believe it has been SO long since my last appointment!) I was looking forward to it all day, especially since my right shoulder blade has been giving me a lot of problems. I have a throbbing pain in that area a lot, and ice/heat don’t seem to provide any relief. Maybe toting around an entire house of stuff in my purse is catching up with me? Ha!

I thought a good massage would do the trick, but then I got a voicemail from Katherine saying she had to cancel so she could pick up her child from daycare. Completely understandable, but I couldn’t help but be disappointed! This momma-to-be needs a little zen after a stressful week at work! Oh well…good thing appointments can be rescheduled.

I did do a 50-minute workout tonight that left me feeling refreshed and relaxed…not as much as the massage would have, but hey, whatever works, right? I battled through hills for 30 minutes on the elliptical, and then spent some time with Denise Austin doing 20 minutes of toning as part of her Fit & Firm pregnancy DVD. I swear, she sounds and looks so much like one of my favorite “Real Housewives”:

Vicki!

Ever seen Real Housewives of Orange County? It’s so my Thursday night guilty pleasure! And every time I turn the Denise Austin DVD, I almost expect her to start trash talking Gretchen or something. Ha Ha!

I’m pretty proud of myself, because I’ve already gotten in three days of exercise this week! Only 2 more to go, and then it is reward time. For those of you who don’t know what the heck I’m talking about, I get a reward, i.e. shoes, new nail polish, etc.,  if I work out 5 days a week. It’s an incentive to keep me exercising during my pregnancy, since I’m having a hard time staying awake and battling nausea, which doesn’t make me want to get moving!

So, since exercise is accomplished, how about a few pics of today’s eats?

Breakfast: Kashi GoLean Crunch cereal with lowfat milk, and a big bowl of honeydew melon. I’ve been craving fruit like nobody’s biz!

Lunch: 6-inch veggie patty Subway sandwich on Parmesan bread and a side of jalapeno chips.

Snacks: A (undocumented…sorry!) bag of light popcorn sprinkled with Cajun seasoning, and a serving of string cheese

Dinner: The husband was craving Arby’s, so we got plain roast beef sandwiches, and topped them with horsey and Arby’s sauce. I  paired the sandwich with a salad drizzled with light raspberry vinaigrette dressing. I may or may not have had three of JD’s jalapeno poppers as well. Those things are crazy good!

I’m off to dream land now. (Big surprise, right?) I hope you all have a great rest of the week! And congrats to these amazing ladies — Brittany, Candy and Lorrie, on their weight loss achievements! Way to go!!
