Whatcha eating today? Wednesday, 4/12/2017

Happy Wednesday! I think Spring is finally here. I'll celebrate with an allergy shot ;) I've actually got a pretty light day ahead of me - class in the morning (and no exams!), then a few quick errands and I'll be home for lunch. Granted I eat lunch between 2-3pm, but still. I'll take it :)

1: protein shake
2: baked tofu
3: roast chicken with asparagus and tahini sauce, rice for the guys

liquid and vites: on track
exercise: walk around campus or yoga

How about you?

I read this and said - omg is it really only Wednesday...but yes, it's wednesday : /

Weight is holding steady, but my eating is not in control - it's a slippery slope. I know it's stress and I know that's just an excuse. Ugh...

B: cheerios

L: idk - working at home and that leads to grazing

D: grilled chicken, peppers, onions and salsa on a small tortilla

E: most likely walking - been hitting 10-15K in steps lately with the warmer weather

L/V: good

Finally a relatively light day on meetings. I'm hoping to crank a bunch out at work today, and I'm super excited for my workout tonight. Lots of movements that I love: snatch, squats and thursters ;) fun.

I've been super snacky at night lately. My weight is ok. I've been holding steady since the end of January which was kind of the plan after a dramatic loss. I would like to shed maybe 10 more lbs slowly - my calories tend to swing +/- 1000 throughout the week when I'm restricting which I don't think is healthy. My focus is to include frutis or veggies in all of my meals / snacks and to keep things more even throughout the day week.

I need to start including some non-tv snacking relax time at night. Tonight -- I'm pulling out a puzzle and my adult coloring stuff again.

B: fit frappe & coffee

S: apple & pb2

L: chicken parm, pasta & broccoli

S: yogurt & strawberries parfait, protein shake

D: flatbread, salad & green beans

S: orange, rice cakes, piece of chocolate

E: crossfit

Yesterday was a complete cluster. Work had me tied to my computer. I BARELY got lunch. I couldn't get to water. I couldn't get up and walk around. When I did finally get done, I had an appointment for a handi-man to come and look at the projects I need done, so that shot my work out time. I barely had an hour to go to the grocery. My fit bit was telling me to get ready for bed while I was there! So, again, late to bed. Today, I'm gonna burn up the workout!

I had hamburger last night for the first time, without issue! Woot! That opens up my protein forward out-to-eat options around here. I had this fear I was going to react badly because so many folks told me they did.

I'm getting to a point where people are noticing my weight loss more and more. I'm not the type of person who wants everyone and their co-workers commenting on it. But they do. Today a woman was kind of a jerk, and I don't think she even realized it. This was the second time she told me that I looked "so much better" now and "Wow, you've made a very positive change to your appearance". Yes, I get it...thin people are more attractive. But, really?!

B: Dannon L&F, 1 TBSP of PB2, Babybel Cheese

L: Chicken breast, shredded cheddar, salsa and sour cream

D: Smoked Salmon and Laughing Cow

S: Premier Protein and maybe a beef stick, if I feel I need it.

E: 3 mile walk on lunch break, hopefully outside.
