So I wore a shirt today that I haven't worn for over 10 years due to it not fitting me. It was a bit tight after I ate lunch and would sit down but it still fit pretty darn well. A huge ego lift and more reinforcement of my plan. My belt is definitely getting easier pulling to the fourth notch. Still fitting into the third notch but the gap is getting closer. I have got to keep it up and just be aware of what is happening around me when it comes to eating. Looking back at yesterday, I would admit that in the past instead of going for a walk or trying to distract myself, I would have mindlessly just grabbed something to eat. Instead I realized what was going on and took the initiative to do something about it. Don't get all excited though as next time I will probably revert back to my old ways. But maybe not, we'll see. Here's the story for today:
Breakfast: Egg sandwich with tomato, roast beef, and avocado on a skinny bun. Banana and 20oz of cold water.
Snack: Greek yogurt and almonds
Lunch: Blackened cod on a whole wheat wrap with quinoa, broccoli, asparagus, beet greens, tomato, and avocado.
Snack: Apple with peanut butter
Dinner: Spinach salad with Mache (fancy lettuce), cauliflower, asparagus, beet greens, cottage cheese, salmon patty, deli roast beef, and salsa. Also snacked on slices of roasted beet and yam.
I got up late this morning as my alarm wasn't set properly so didn't do my morning routine. I didn't feel any different but was definitely going to the gym after work. I actually left work early today and so was able to make sure I got in a good work out. I did 24 minutes on the recumbent bike and 16 minutes on the treadmill. I don't run on the treadmill but keep a robust walking pace with hills most time. I also did the abs exercise that L showed me on Sat and I will try to incorporate it into my normal workout either in the morning or evening.
