Day 10: TGIF

Friday, May 21, 2010

I've been waiting for Friday all week! I'm finding it easier to turn away from the sweets because I know the weekend is coming. No, I'm not going to pig out, just going to relax a little.

Lunch Mediterranean Lentil Soup with pita chips
Snack Kashi Oatmeal & Dark Chocolate cookie
Dinner Chicken quesadilla...again
Coffee 2 cups
Sweet Tea 1 glass
Water about 32oz

Yes, I know I shouldn't skip breakfast and I should drink more water, but I have 3 kids and sometimes, it just doesn't happen. It's definitely NOT on purpose because I LOVE breakfast! No exercise this week, but I will be back at it on Monday.

Day 9: Movie Night!

I didn't get this posted last night because we got in really late and just crashed. But here is yesterday's food journey.

Breakfast Kashi cereal (the GOLEAN Crisp-Toasted Berry Crumble is my absolute FAVORITE!)
Lunch Atlanta Bread, 1/2 Turkey sandwich & 1/2 Greek Salad w/small piece of sourdough
Snack Naked brand fruit smoothie and some pita chips
Dinner Moe's, Personal Trainer vegetarian salad (I really just picked at it because I knew what was next!)
Movie snack Popcorn and Cherry Coke
Coffee 1 cup
Water about 52oz

I weighed 145.0 this morning and I'm so excited about that! No, it's nowhere near where I want to be, but it's 2 pounds in 1 week. If I can do that consistently, then that means that this is working and I'll be there very soon! I know it may not look like I'm eating that great, but this blog has already made a big difference in my food choices. I may not always make the right ones, but I definitely spend more time thinking about them, and I can't tell you how many unhealthy choices I've already turned away just this week! I've definitely still got a lot of progress to make, but knowing that I'm making progress is very motivating!

Also, the idea of being able to eat without posting on the weekend has also influenced my decisions throughout the week. Just yesterday I refused a cookie because I knew I could have it in just 2 more days without posting, so that's 1 less cookie for me! I may or may not eat a cookie this weekend, but I didn't eat it yesterday.

By the way, we saw Date Night at the movies and it was hilarious!
