Lara One, BK None

So here I am winding down Day 4.  It has been a great day all around with the exception of 1 small incident.  Thursdays are our busy day.  We go from work, to baseball practice, and then 30 minutes to get from there to Cristian's gymnastics.  Normally we cook enough dinner the night before to allow us to heat up left overs to feed us before we head out to baseball but unfortunate that was not the case tonight.  I ended up grabbing some oatmeal as I ran out the door and decided that we would break down and grab Cristian a quick bite between baseball and gymnastics.  So...we ended up running through the drive thru at Burger King.  We have not been to BK in years.  I honestly cannot remember the last time we have been there.  It must have been before Cristian was born.  At any rate, I had no worries about being tempted by their YUMMY french fries, Cristian never orders french fries with his meal, he always gets apples.  So we ordered the chicken nuggets with the apples fries (they have apples cut into the shape of french fries, how cool is that?) and proceeded to the window to pay and pick up his meal.  When the guy opened the window of the drive thru, out wafted the smell of french fries.  No worries, it would only last for a few minutes or so I thought.  When the guy handed us the bag, not only was it missing the apples, there were not 1 but 2 orders of french fries in the bag.  I tried to politely give the fries back but the guy insisted that we keep them.  There must be some rule that once the food exits the window, they cannot take it back or our girlish figures were telling him that we really NEEDED these fries.  I stood my ground though, I refused to submit to the cries coming from the bag.  "Just one little french fry, what is it going to hurt?"  Oh no, aren't you one of the reasons that I am in the shape I am in today?  So I say Lara ONE, BK NONE!  I win, you lose!

So, once we got home, I proceeded to vacuum and clean the filter on the pool again.  The rain keeps messing with the chemicals not to mention the dirt that keeps getting in it from the flowerbeds.  It rained pretty good here today.  After doing that, with my heart rate already up from the pool experience, I jumped right into the Cardio / Sweat / Ab Ripper workout.  Now mind you, the last workout on this segment, I had a few struggles, but I can tell that my stamina and strength is getting better each day.  It was a great workout and I only had to make a few modifications but I never stopped moving.  On top of that, I met ALL of my milestones today!  WHOOP WHOOP!  Check it out:
