If you feel down about losing "only" a quarter pound when you weigh in, open your refrigerator, pull out one stick of butter and say to yourself: This much, in pure fat, is GONE from my body!!"
It sure did make me smile and remember that even the seemingly smallest of losses is a good loss!!
Here is a picture of that butter:
Workouts: its house cleaning today folks... i vacuumed the entire house, and mopped it too, put away the dishes, wiped down the fridge, countertops, table, cleared off the table...
and STILL worked out for 45 minutes! WAYW 3 Miles. Yahoo!
Breakfast: 1 whole wheat bagel with chive and onion cream cheese. Just a tad.
Lunch: some leftover tomato pesto chicken noodle stuff, 1 slice rye bread with a smidge of butter and some garlic, yum, side salad with Romaine lettuce and light Italian dressing.
Dinner: okay, here it goes... i will say the things i ate and tell why they are a victory in many ways compared to the "old" me...
- 3/4 a Polish sausage (old me would have had a whole one) with brown mustard
- 1/4 cup potato salad (old me would have had more AND then some macaroni salad, too)
- 1 double stuf oreo (definitely eat way more)
- 2 chips ahoy cookies (usually eat WAY more)
- a thin slice of poppy seed cake (very very delicious)
- less than 1/2 cup of cookies and cream ice cream (stop with whatever came out on the first scoop)
- a small bit of soft pretzel (my own homemade ones!)
- Nutella and croissants
- Macaroni salad
- ANY chips
- more than one small serving of anything
- no soda (had flavored water)
Dessert/snacks: 1 8 oz glass sangria, no ice, 1 100-cal package of beef jerky, a few sips of moms sangria, a bite of homemade pretzel.
Water: check!
Daily Vitamins: check
