Oh my, from my shoulders to my toes, everything has a bit of ache to it. Can I really keep up with this!? Fortunately tomorrow is my scheduled day of rest for morning exercise.
I did the Wii Fit Yoga series for 30 minutes this morning, and got in an unscheduled 30 minute walk! I was surprised to not mind being out in the heat (yet another 100+ day) but there was a lot of shade, and really, a good sweat does some sort of cleansing. Not that I'll be scheduling in any regular high heat walks, mind you. I am glad I got the exercise in early since I knew that tonight's dinner plan included a family favorite - spinach and mushroom enchiladas. Yeah, that sounds gooood! They are tasty for sure, but according to the original recipe, they're in the neighborhood of 1,000 calories per serving. OUCH! So, hubby and I did some substitution searching and decided to use low fat milk instead of the heavy whipping cream and half and half (betcha didn't believe me about that thousand calories 'til you read that! Oh, and 3 kinds of cheese!) and reduced fat cheeses, and came up with a 700 calorie per serving dish, and then I reduced my portion. Not low fat, I know, but my other meals took that into account, and even though I ate a lot less than I normally would have, it was plenty.
Did my evening routine and came in with a grand total of 309 net calories remaining!
