Sunday night check in on what you ate
Today was a great day for me. Spent the day with a friend that I have not seen for over a year. We went to church, lunch and hiked. There was so much shade we did not mind the heat at all. Great day. On top of all this I am back into a outfit that I could not fit into. So happy.
Breakfast banana 400 grams of Greek yogurt
snack peach
lunch was half a egg wrap. It had lettuce and tomatoes and scramble egg in it.
Dinner two bites of the other half of the wrap but just did not want it. had instead 400 grams of Greek yogurt.
1 cup watermelon
snack fruit smoothie
lots of water today

Good evening. Today was not a very good day for me, although it started out really well. I had to work and I did not like it and ended up eating my feelings in the afternoon. Ugh...
b - gnc protein shake, strawberry, decaf coffee
s - 1 slice p28 bread with whipped pb and low sugar jam
l - same as snack, couple of carrots
s - decaf coffee, 1 boston cream donut (I didn't even enjoy it, that was the worst part!), greek yogurt with berries
d - 2 pieces of kfc chicken, 1 small side of coleslaw, no fries, diet coke (sigh) this I did enjoy and I am still full 4 hours later so at least there is that.
s - sf grape koolaid
Pretty angry at myself about the donut and the fried chicken, diet coke, but it could have been much worse. Tomorrow I clean up, going to freeze some healthy tasty stuff to grab quickly in the morning. I have noticed that I feel hungry earlier in the morning now whereas before the shake was enough, going to try to space out the shake throughout the morning to keep me going. have a nice night all!
Don't beat yourself up. Tomorrow is another day. The good thing is you know why you ate the things that you did. I eat my feeling also which is an issue. Still learning to deal with issues a different way but it is hard. I guess I am lucky I can not do things high in sugar and nothing deep fried and no left overs. The left overs is something I wish I could do. I have not touched pop in 6 years.
It does suck when you take something you know you shouldn't and not enjoy it.
hopefully having some frozen healthy snacks will help.
I understand no deep fried but how come you can't eat leftovers? Good for you for not touching pop in 6 years, I made the mistake of trying it again and now I have one maybe once or twice a month, and always sugar-free. Still, its not a good habit to get into. The eating my feelings will be a lifelong struggle at times, I am certain of this, must stay vigilant and use other ways to deal with uncomfortable feelings. What do you do? Exercise? Meditation? What works best for you?
