Today my clothes fit very well. I wore a shirt that was an XL and hadn't fit for ten years. I was quite pleased to see myself in the mirror. On top of that I once again flirted with belt loop number 5. As weigh in day gets closer I'm trying not to get to excited but I can't help it. Here's the food list for the day:
Belt loop Watch: 4 but 5 is just around the waist.
Breakfast: Egg and roast beef sandwich on a skinny bun with avocado and tomato. Banana and 20oz of cold water.
1st snack: I was distracted in the morning and completely forgot to eat the Larabar I'd brought for this snack, so didn't eat anything until,
2nd snack: Greek yogurt and almonds. This was when I discovered I hadn't eaten the Larabar as it was sitting on the counter in the break room at work. Made me laugh as I really didn't notice I'd forgotten.
Lunch: Low carb/high fiber wrap with quinoa, tomato, steak strips, broccoli slaw, and avocado with mozzarella cheese. A mini muffin pumpkin flavor.
3rd snack: Aussie Bite
Dinner: Spinach salad with cauliflower, quinoa mixed with chicken sausage and broccoli, tomato, and low fat dressing. I was still feeling hungry so I had a 100cal bag of popcorn sprinkled with cinnamon and a quarter bar of dark chocolate.
I lifted weights at the gym after work. I will be trying to incorporate that into the routine per the conversation I had with L. Felt fine and I did body weight squats and lunges in between the lifting sets. I noticed that my legs were a bit wobbly walking to my car afterwards. That was cool as it meant I'd gotten in a leg workout in addition to the upper body workout. I did that all in a hour so still hitting my schedule for working out. Even though I did the squats and lunges I still gave my lower body a break from the cardio. I think that's important so that's the main reason for the weight lifting. I will do that in the middle of the week to break up the cardio.
