And the battle continues...

Last night after my run and updating and trying to figure out this blog thing I ate a very quick dinner. I had two slices of turkey, 1 vitamuffin and one cheese stick. I was not going to force myself to eat when I was not hungry. I watched the Bachelorette last night. Wow, Kacey is CRAZY!! He will never ever get another date if any girl has seen him on the show! I am rooting for Roberto, Frank and the guy that walked her to her room when she was sick (I can't remember his name).

I was surprised when I did not wake up hungry this morning! I had usual cup of tea while I was getting ready for work and my other cup on the drive to school. I ate my greek yogurt and blueberries around 8:15 and I will have my 100% whole wheat bagel flat and two tablespoons of reduced fat peanut butter at 9:00am. I am in love with these bagel flats. I toast mine so my peanut butter gets runny. Delish!!

Breakfast

I have grad class tonight until 10pm so I will not have anytime to workout. I would much rather workout than go to class any day of the week.

Today for lunch I have packed a turkey sandwich on a whole wheat deli flat. I love condiments and I have found a great substitute. Instead of using mayo I now use the laughing cow garlic cheese. It is a prefect addition to a sandwich and much better than mayo. I have a seltzer water, a string cheese and 100 calorie pack of coffee cakes. For my afternoon snack later I have a light baby bell cheese.

Lunch

I am going to meet my goal today and not eat anything at Donna's party after school. I need to figure out what I am doing for dinner though....

Goal for today was….NOT met! :(

Why wasn’t this goal met? I was starving when I walked into the media center and apparently I do not have great control. What did I do to fix this problem? I used what I ate at the retirement party as my dinner. When I got home I did not eat anything else. What did I eat? 6 cocktail meatballs, about 15 chips and 3 tablespoons of salsa cheese. Did I make the best choices? No. Did I make the worst choices? Absolutely NOT! There were cookies and dips that had 5 layers of beans and sour cream and cream cheese. I stopped eating before I was actually full and I decided not to eat an actual dinner when I got home. What can I learn from this? I need to make better choices like picking fruit and veggies and no more dips. I need to make sure I am going to do what it takes to meet my goals. Will this get me off track? NO!

Tomorrow's Goal: Not to eat anything that I have not already planned for and to go for a run before I go and practice volleyball with my friends. That's two different times I am planning on exercising.
