The day after weigh in and the Saturday nite gathering. I'm way more positive today than yesterday. Though after talking with L on Saturday, I was not so down on myself for the weight gain. Poor L, not only does she have to get me to exercise but she has to listen to my sad tales of weight gain. HA HA. Ah well onward and upward in the story of my life. Decided today that I was going to skip working out. I still did stuff, washed clothes, cleaned the kitchen and vacuumed, and did the grocery shopping. I tried to park far enough away from the store so I had to actually walk a bit and then walked thru most of the store even if I didn't need to. I could have made one trip out of bringing in the grocery's but instead made two trips. My laundry area is a walk up stairs so got a bit of exercise doing that and the vacuuming was a bit more cardio. The main focus was not to sit in front of the computer all day. I didn't, as I also worked on getting work week lunches together. I tried something new with quinoa. I made veggie burgers with quinoa and black beans. They seem to have worked but I'm holding off in eating any until lunches for work. I'll be making salads so the quinoa will add to the ingredients that make up the salad. So here's how this day played out:
Breakfast: Egg and veggie burger sandwich on a skinny bun with guacamole. 20oz of cold water.
Late lunch: A fish sandwich (home made) on whole wheat bread with guacamole and tomato. An extra piece of fish and some quinoa. A lemonade/tea drink.
Dinner: A salad from TJ's that I spruced up. It was with chicken, greens, couscous, and quinoa. I added some broccoli, cauliflower, steak strips and more quinoa. I then had some dark chocolate.
Tomorrow I'm rededicating myself to the workouts in the mornings and will be adjusting my portions at lunch and dinner. We'll see if that will kickstart the weight loss again.
