Week 1 - Day 2

Breakfast:

Salad at the lake!  Really nice way to enjoy a meal.



Lunch:

Medium bowl of romaine topped with indian spiced lentils, 2 corn on the cob, half a green apple, peanut butter and jelly sandwich. (NOT a great choice, that was an emotional deal)

I was hungry. Not sure why. I guess my salad was smaller than usual and I did get in a walk, but I didn't think I would be that hungry.

Dinner:

Black bean soup, green smoothie, green tea, carrots & broccoli (though I haven't finished the carrots and I was given way more than I could ever eat in one meal anyways.)



Thoughts:

Today was another not-so-stellar day.  A lot of emotion coupled with a headache. My family has been battling a cold for a week and I think my body is really working hard to fight it. My head just hurt today so I spent the afternoon lying down.  The evening too.  I just hope the extra rest can help me shake this before it gets worse.

I didn't have a perfect plan day. Too much bread/starches. I'm also on fats, now that my daughter just brought me a few date balls that they just made. How can I resist my favorite chocolate date balls?? I can't.

I got in my walk today. :)

  1. Progress not perfection. . . You're doing great. Not perfect, but great. For what it's worth, I'm always ravenous for a few days when making a big change.

  2. Thanks, Nichole! I'm definitely not pulling this week off as "perfect"but I sure am making better choices.
