Day 252

Again not much to say so I'll throw this out there to catch up.  Today was a day to try to eat less than normal.  I think I succeeded.  My pants are fitting looser and as I said my belt is getting looser also.  I'm thinking I may go and buy a couple of pair of pants in 44" waist size.

Belt loop Watch: Still 4 but 5 was closer than ever before.

Breakfast: Egg and roast beef sandwich on a skinny bun with cheese, avocado, and tomato.  Banana and 20oz of cold water.

No 1st snack

2nd snack: Greek yogurt and almonds

Lunch: A can of Split Pea soup from TJ's and some roasted veggies mixed in.  The can of soup in total was about 200cal plus the veggies so I think it was a lower calorie lunch than normal.  If not it was close and all good food.

3rd snack: Cucumber and hummus.  Used the cucumber like potato chips and dipped it in the hummus.  There wasn't that much hummus so a small snack.

Dinner: Green salad with steak strips, tomato, cheese, salsa as dressing, and the last of the roasted veggies.  A bit later had a 100cal bag of popcorn.

A  co-worker had a great snack idea that I'm planning on stealing.  She took a green apple and sliced it thinly, then sprinkled it with chili flakes and lemon juice.  It was quite good and tasty.  The spicy flavor can be adjusted but it's important to the overall effect.  I may have to take some for the gaming gathering on Sat's.

After work did the cardio and ramped it up to 50min.
