Morning,
I love mid week but the weekends are harder for me. My DH loves to eat and being home all day with him makes me battle food issues. I either am cooking more for him or we are going out on the weekends. I will keep my resolve to stay strong come what may.
Cardio - crunches on ab lounger
Cafe -
Uncomfortable with choices so the scale will tell what tomorrow's choices will be.
Take care,
Z

Good Morning!
Tess, Yes...I do live for the weekend!! Im so ready for summer and hitting the pool. I need sunshine so badly. Really looking forward to fresh, locally grown fruits and veggies. Dying for some good watermelon. Its supposed to get pretty close to 70 degrees tomorrow!
Hopped on the scale this morning for my mid week sneek peak. Im not happy. I kinda cheated Monday as well to see if I had really done any damage going out on Friday and luckily I hadnt. Unfortunately, the scale was still exactly the same down to the ounce. Hopefully there will be a loss by Saturday. This 230 is my wall. I have seen 225, but never past that and 225 was a FIGHT to see. Lasted ONE day. This is so frusterating. Ive been killing it at the gym, really pushing myself.
Even skipped my coffee today in an effort to cut more calories from the cream...
Eats for today:
Pure Protein Bar and Banana
100 calorie pack of almonds and orange
Strawberry Muscle Milk and Pear
Sauteed chicken breast, peppers and onions in half a pita
My Quest bars are scheduled for delivery today so If they come in, I'll be trying one!
Zumba tonight

My weight moves down when I add fat to my diet ... that always worked for me... maybe the fat causing "sliding effect"? Not sure.
Just saying. Sometimes limiting calories and fat may have the opposite effects on the body.

all of them. Normally - whip cream... lol...
But any half and half, or avocado... or even oil.
It really helps moving things along.
if I try to eliminate calories - the carbs are first to go.
Even this morning - I picked sunflower seeds ...and ate that for breakfast...
And made protein shake- but was out of almond milk - so added 1 tbs of almond butter.. I know I will have BM this afternoon...(felt it moving along...lol)
Proteins can turn to sugar, carbs turn to sugar... fat makes my body happy -
I try to use the most natural fats... use coconut oil, butter, nuts, almond milk (unsweet). I do not care much for olive oil... (personal issues) But fat stabilizes my blood sugar...A few days ago I was craving mayo... got my fix.
If I use carbs or protein - my blood sugar may drop... but if I add fat to the mix - it stays good.
Fat makes the liver dump bile - bile irritates the gut - makes it move.... babe...
I lost my GB because I did not use enough fat at the beginning...
I would skip 1/2 banana (eat 1/2 - and add 1-3 tsp of natural nut butter - my fav - almond butter... - has the calcium and fat ... and complex carbs.)

I have been working on computer problem last few days (business operation system) and it sucks big time. Hate the stupid Quickbooks with passion every time I had to update the program. It is never an easy task. And sicne I had to do that once a year ... it really messes things up for me and my team. Last night I planned to have a nice dinner with a friend and then relax at home, but instead I had to go back to the office and was thre untill 2:30 am.
But not all is good... so will have another "long evening" tonight. not liking it at all.
but I ate well... and since my accistant hid my protein crunch bars from me (my last box) ... I ate real food... and some quest bars... At least pooping was easy today... lol...
eats:
coffee + coconut milk
sunflower seeds
protein shake
pork loin with veggies
chicken with veggies,,,
quest bar (1)
LNS: sunflower seeds
