Day 272

Wow belt loop #5 again!  I did ease up to #4 later in the day but still impressed with myself.  It made not succumbing to the hunger I felt last night all the more worth it.  Even though I will say that in hind sight I wasn't starving so I really didnt' need to eat more.  It's funny what you can convince yourself of.  I'm sure that next time I will more than likely give in but I hope to remember this or have another motivation to not give in.  Today was normal all the way through, no crazy cravings and no little voices trying to seduce me into being bad.  Not that I have anything against being bad.  It's just better to keep it under control somewhat.  And away we go:

Belt loop Watch: #5 for most of the day and then #4 which is still okay.

Breakfast: Egg and turkey sandwich on a skinny bun with tomato and avocado.  Banana and 20oz of cold water.  Delicious.

1st snack: Apple Pie Larabar

2nd snack: Greek yogurt and almonds

Lunch: Spinach salad with two quinoa patty's, tomato, cauliflower, broccoli, and dressing.  Also still felt a bit hungry so had a Fiber One bar.  That really did the trick.

3rd snack: Carrots and guacamole

Dinner: Whenever I do a weight lifting workout I always seem to want to eat meat.  So tonight I had a chicken burger with spinach, guacamole, an egg, and tomato on a skinny bun.  There was some baby carrots and 6 bacon wrapped scallops.  A bit later in the evening I had a quarter bar of dark chocolate.  A perfect meal it seems.

So I did the weight lifting for a workout today and I think it went well.  I upped the weight a bit to give myself a somewhat bigger challenge.  Not too much but more than I'd been doing.  Okay tomorrow is a "eat less" day so again continuing the experiment. I'm curious as to the belt loop question too.
