weight: 225
grrrr. only went to the gym twice this week. Ok three times if you count yesterday when I just sat in the hot tub & steam room. I was hoping it would sweat off a couple of pounds but I went by myself and got bored before I could get to that point. Its okay though. This coming week is a new week and I'm renewed again to reach my goals. How about that if I could be down to 220 by the end of January?! That is 5 lbs in one week. A lot but I could do it. I need to work harder and set my goals higher and more specific. Admittedly I've been lazy. Not this week. I can do it!
Breakthrough: You know what I just realized? I don't crave fast food like I used to. Maybe its just a phase I'm going through but I have been able to resist eating out more because I was able to desire the food I had waiting at home rather than a quick fix at Taco Bell or McDonalds. (PS I love my new panini grill!) Plus, deep fried foods make me feel sick inside after I eat them. Tasty but deadly. Now to work on high sugar foods, I certainly can still pack on the sweets without any problem.
This week's menu:
chicken noodle soup
chicken enchiladas
grilled fish & herbed potatoes
turkey burger & sweet potato fries
chicken curry
smoothies
OK so not extremely healthy but definitely not eating out. I don't eat as much if I eat my own cooking. My diet is about portion control rather than restricting myself to certain types of foods. The trick is to not go so long between meals so that I don't overeat. I know I know I say this all the time but I need to remember that it helps to partake in healthy snacks between meals.
My goal this week: eat a heartier breakfast or eat second breakfast so I'm not ravenous by the time lunch rolls around. Pack lunch the night before because I KNOW that I won't do it in the morning!
