Good Day!

My food challenges continued yesterday. I made pumpkin cookies (by request) for the day care teachers and I may have eaten a few too many. Those combined with some silly trips to the Halloween candy stash made for a bad, bad food day. My body repaid me last night with a very upset tummy. Enough is enough...that is behind me, moving on.

Today was great...mentally and physically!

Breakfast....egg white omelet with spinach, onion & feta along with 2 slices of light, wheat toast.

Skipped the am snack because I knew I was going out for lunch.

Lunch....cup of tortilla soup, grilled chicken breast, lots of broccoli. I asked for no rice and double veggies. They brought me the rice by mistake and then brought out more veggies. I didn't touch the rice!

Snack....broccoli slaw, special K bar.

Pre-workout snack....banana, 100 cal pack of cocoa almonds (yum!)

Dinner....big, yummy salad with romaine, ham, craisins, feta, corn, TJ's champagne dressing. Basically I tossed in a bunch of leftovers in the fridge. Worked out to about a 300 calorie dinner.

I did have a handful of goldfish and a mini twix (the rough part of the day that I wish hadn't happened).

Finished off with a sliced apple and cup of herbal tea!

No food pics, however I might start doing more of that. I think it helps me to really see and review what I'm eating, along with my logging.

I hit the gym tonight for an hour of weight lifting and about 30 min of cardio. I actually had another member stop and ask me about my split squats and said she liked how I was doing them. It was strange to have someone else notice what I'm doing.

Anyway...this was a rambling post to say that I've had a good day!

I feel mentally better about things. I'm recommiting to my journey and my goals. We have a tough time of year ahead of us for food junkies. Last year I lost weight during all the major holidays. I'd like to keep that tradition alive this year.

Back to the Phillies....
