Day 287

It feels weird, no pizza. Also old school morning routine. I didn't really do any exercises just did the basic workout that's not a workout. More body movements and stretching. At the last minute I realized I was ahead of myself in terms of my days. So was able to remember to actually take a lunch instead of thinking lunch was going to be provided. I was having a brain fart in thinking a program I'm part of was today instead of it actually being next week. I just am too literal some times. So again a good day with the belt loops and feeling like I'm getting there. I was supposed to make this a "eat less" day but didn't really happen. Will try again next week, even though I might incorporate the eating program I went with yesterday. I might consider it a reward in a sense (that is if I deserve a reward). I will have to think about that next week and maybe give it a try. I'm thinking I will allow myself to sleep later and get up with just enough time to shower, shave and drink my 20oz of cold water and then an hour or so later eat a Larabar. I want to start experimenting with eating. I know I should always eat breakfast, but how much and when could be adjusted to possibly alter my metabolism. Possibly. It could also be disastrous to my goals.


Here's today's log:

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

1st snack: Peanut Butter Larabar ½

2nd snack: Greek yogurt and almonds

Lunch: Spinach salad with quinoa, yellow zucchini, roasted veggies, and dressing.

Dinner: Quinoa salad with cheese and cauliflower. ½ of a dark chocolate bar and a small glass of eggnog.

Went to the gym after work and did weights. Did a bit of body weight squats and lunges but wasn't feeling it so stuck to the upper body workout.

One day away from weigh in day and the next 24hrs will have temptations lurking in the shadows. Got to be strong but again the life is calling and I'm sure I'll answer. I just hope I answer sensibly and with moderation. Oh yeah it's the start of a three day weekend with a birthday party one night and a lunch date with a couple of work friends to spice up the temptations.
