Day 292

It's that time again where I regale you with my awesome accomplishments in the weight loss arena. Of course it's all malarkey but still fun to talk about.  Today is the beginning of a short work week due to Veteran's Day.  I'm quite happy to say that the day went off as planned.  I actually got out of bed with enough time to get in a morning core workout and still felt like I accomplished something other than waking up in time to go to work.  At the gym I did the cardio workout and switched the machines around a little bit.  I did the recumbent second and the stair stepper last.  Instead of the other way around which was the norm up to this point.  I am skipping the afternoon snack as lately I've felt that lunch was so filling that I didn't need to eat anything between lunch and dinner.  Of course the workout comes in there between those two meals but I still feel I'm good without the snack.  I'm going to try this for a few weeks and see.  Here's how I ate my way thru the day:

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

1st snack: Apple Pie Larabar

2nd snack: Greek yogurt and almonds

Lunch: Turkey and roast beef sandwich on sourdough bread.  Added tomato, roasted red peppers, peanut butter, and cheese.  This was a big sandwich and it was all I needed.  I was very satisfied.

3rd snack: As I've stated I'm skipping this snack for the foreseeable future.

Dinner: My regular dinner bowl filled with chicken and jalapeno meatballs, stir-fried cauliflower and broccoli, topped with mango-peach salsa.  A bit later had a 100cal bag of popcorn.

I'm still getting belt loop #5 to work and #6 is peeking around the corner but still hiding rather well.  That's okay as I know it's there I just have to work for it.
