Day 267

A day off.  Well from working out that is.  I'm still eating better today than you'd expect but no working out.  Hopefully there won't be any cookies in the break room either.  I'm looking forward to weigh in tomorrow morning as I expect to be surprised.  Of course the surprise could go either way.  I'm okay no matter what I weigh I just hope I've not gained any pounds but I'm not holding my breath.  All week when I've flirted with the 5th belt loop.  Monday I actually would have put it at the 5th but I would have been walking very stiffly.  I'm getting closer but have started to sabotage myself a little bit.  So gotta re-focus and remember the big picture.  I've definitely felt more confident in my day to day actions and I've got to channel that into my healthy thinking.  Here's what I ate today:

Belt loop Watch: Again the 4 but the 5 is oh so close.

Breakfast: Canadian bacon and egg with tomato and avocado on a skinny bun.  Banana and 20oz of cold water.

1st snack: Greek yogurt and almonds.  Put some almonds in the yogurt and then put the bag away.  Yes!

Lunch: Chili Releno and a chicken sausage.  So there was one cookie left and I ate it.

2nd snack: The last of the Cashew Clusters and a little cheese.

Dinner: I really shouldn't but I keep rewarding my healthy behavior with food.  It's hard to repress the "It's Friday" feeling so that I can continue my normal eating habits.  I just figure it's one meal so big deal and then "look out here it comes" I've eaten half the county.  Ha not really but it still gets me every time.  I ate a cibatta sandwich from a local deli and had a big order of JoJo's ( fried potato wedges) with some guacamole and two big wine coolers.  I'm not feeling stuffed but I am guessing I ate more calories than I really should have.  Especially since tomorrow night will be the game get together.  Don't know what I'll bring but am hoping to bring some veggies and guacamole.

So there we have my Friday.  The day before weigh in and I can now see why quite often I haven't lost any weight when it seems like I should have.  Again I'm living my life the way I want to and any regrets are my own doing.  I know I will get there but it's a long and winding road that I must walk.
