Exercise - 45 minutes of circuit training class at the Rec Center, got a ton of exercise points for that. Also, did some serious house-cleaning today, and got exercise/activity points for that, too. Thus, the high number today.

I've been a good girl. I really, really have. And it's maybe lame to celebrate with food, falling off the wagon, so to speak, but Sue says it's nice to have an "anythying goes" day, because it's fun at first, but then your body says, "Hey, where'd all the healthy food go?" You feel bloated, and want to get back on the wagon. I say, bring it on, sister, bring it on. Reese's E.T. Munchies cookies for me tomorrow. But here is something healthy I'll be going back to starting Sunday:

Yummy! It's a veggie tuna dip, 7 Triscuit Reduced Fat crackers, a sliced roma tomato, and a nectarine. And the whole thing is only 334 calories. Wahoo!!

You make the dip with:
-2 tablespoons Naturally Yours fat free sour cream (the one that looks like a black and white cow, so yummy! it's the BEST fat free sour cream, smooth and tangy)
-1/2 cup Bumble Bee tuna chunk light in water
-1/2 cup chopped celery (you could also add some chopped green onions for just a few extra calories, and 1 tablespoon of sliced almonds for only 45 extra calories)
-1/4 tsp. dried dill

This dip reminds me of a similar spread I used to make when I was a young teenager that had a cream cheese base. But this tastes awesome, too, and I'm sure has waaaay less fat and calories than the original.
