What would I have done differently? not go over and double check my Fitbit steps before i went to bed. I had 9,998 steps early in the evening. I did a couple of things before bed and assumed I would be over 10,000. I checked this morning 9,998 steps - LOL My Fitbit also said I had gone over on calories a bit more than MFP. Oh well - something isn't right.

I don't have the recipe in my possession. My brother in-law made them last weekend. He roasted the eggplant (whole), cut it, scooped out the inside, mixed with canneloni beans, breadcrumbs, eggs, pepper, and rolled them up. (I'm pretty that's it.) When I get the actually recipe I will post it. I was amazed how yummy they were. He put some sauce and cheese on them and baked them for a bit.

Mood today? discouraged, not getting in enough exercise, had to cancel personal trainer today because I have to drive my dad home from radiation. I'm happy to be able to do that, but it is making life a little chaotic and stressful. My dad has 2.5 weeks left of radiation and chemo and is struggling with the side-effects. He can't drive anymore because he is too weak (and my mom only has one eye so can't really drive on the freeway or in St. Paul), so they are arranging rides to and from treatment. And now this week he has to have extra hydration every day so his schedule is unpredictable so I am driving more since it is easier for me than others. Luckily I have very flexible work so tha I"m able to do it .. but it does make it hard to have a routine for anything.

Hope you have a good rest of the week.

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? went to the Y on a Sunday. Last week was a good week for me. My workouts increased and my stress level decreased. Amazing how that works. Tough week ahead of me - expecting 24"+ of snow tonight/tomorrow and it's the week my mom got sick and passed away last year. She had stomach bug symptoms on the Tuesday and passed away on Friday from complete organ failure. Not a day goes by that I don't relive those days in my mind. Miss her so much!
My mother hated winter and the snow. I believe this blizzard that is heading my way is my mother's doing.
