Day Fifty-two

248!! Alright I did it (with a bit of help) I have dipped under the 250 mark for two weeks now.  It could be a trend I guess.  I have dug out some of my shirts from 10yrs ago (yes I still had them) and have them up front and center in my closet.  Now when I get dressed in the morning to go to work there they are.  I think at least one of them is very close to fitting again.  I tried it on and it was just a bit tight around my waist.  More incentive as that way I won't have to buy new shirts for a while.  These shirts didn't get worn that much as I out grew them rather quickly as I went up in weight during that time.

Ok here's the calories for the day:

Breakfast: Oatmeal with two scoops of cottage cheese and 20oz cold water.

After work out Lunch: Green salad with broccoli, cottage cheese, mini peppers, and salsa.  A turkey burger with swiss cheese and almond butter topped with an egg.  Serving of PoP chips.

Second lunch: Bowl of veggies with cottage cheese and dry roasted almonds.

Dinner: Can of Black Bean soup from Trader Joe's.  Mixed in some cottage cheese.  Didn't fill me up so had a banana sandwich with almond butter and a slice of cheese zapped in the microwave.  Then finished off the PoP chips.

Through out the day I snacked on dry roasted almonds and Wasabi Roasted Seaweed Snacks.  These are thin sheets of seaweed spiced up with wasabi from Trader Joe's.  Half of a package is 30calories and so eating the entire package was only 60 calories and quite good tasting.

Went to the gym this morning to meet up with L and had a great workout.  We worked on doing the exercises with proper form and technique.  That way I can get as much benefit as possible when doing the exercises.  We also worked on doing them without injuring myself.  Gotta keep it up.  That way it feels right to go to the gym instead of not going to the gym.
