Cheap Food

I went to the grocery today and spent over $150. Way too much! But, I bought TONS of salmon, beef, chicken, and pork. They were having huge bargains since the 4th is tomorrow. For a 1/2 lb of salmon, it was only around $2. Just over $2 for chicken tenders. Now, my freezer is full, and of healthy lean meats and fish!

I hope everyone is planning on having a good time for the 4th. We are going to the IL house for a cookout. I am planning on bringing both watermelon and a healthy salad so that I will have something to eat that is good on points. I hope everyone is planning this kind of thing for the 4th so that they are prepared for cookouts.

I had a great workout at the gym and even took the LO with me. The LO only cried a tiny bit and I worked out for a total of 40 mins. I went back and forth between cario and weights. When I felt my heartrate start to slow, I would jump back on the treadmill for a while. It said that I only earned 3 points, but it felt like more like 4 points. But, I only counted the 3.

Have a great 4th!

OMG, I did the same thing with all the sales. It's my first week and I spent $165. Now we just have to make sure to eat it all the right way!

Hope your cookout is fun, have a great holiday!

Chettie, you gave me a great idea. I never thought to keep switching between the weights and the treadmill! I am going to try that this week and see what happens. Thanks for that! Hope you are having a great 4th! :)
