Today was a great day. I was able to get back on the road and feel good tonight. I used to keep a food journal, but got lazy with it. I think it really helped, so tomorrow I am going to start it back again. Today I kept track in my head and I have had about 1700 calories. High fiber light bread and fat free turkey sandwiches (2) for dinner w/some pretzels, watermelon, oatmeal and grilled chicken salad at work. Then I ended the night with some really great watermelon. I gotta get down to 374 for me to be happy next Tuesday at weigh in. That will get the 4 pounds I gained off, plus one for the road. Overall, I want to be under 370 when July begins if at all possible.
We went grocery shopping tonight. I bought plenty of chicken breasts, ground lean turkey and some lean pockets for quick healthy eats. Apples, peaches, watermelon and will get bananas Friday (cheaper at other store). I did buy diet cola, but you know as long as my eating is good and I'm drinking water too, a good cold diet cola can be my treat...and there is no fat or sugar to run me off the road. Once again I waited too late to write so I am not taking as much time as I'd like to finish my thoughts. That was the point of my blog, to vent my thoughts and ideas about my weight loss journey along with other things. Unfortunately, I will have to go more in depth later. I'm tired and everyone else in the house is already asleep. G'night and thanks for stopping by to read a little bit.
