Day 317

Well did the usual today and got up late and ended up drinking a protein drink at work instead of eating my usual breakfast.  I am still hoping I will have lost weight but at the same time I'm now trying to figure out this new pattern.  I'm not totally happy with the getting up late and not eating a regular breakfast.  I believe I'm letting this weight loss contest control me a bit too much.  Before I was unhappy that I wasn't losing weight but now it seems like I'm forcing it.  I know you're supposed to sometimes jump start the process to get back on track but I don't think it's working for me.  I'm glad I'm trying this approach but don't think I'll continue down this path.  I just have to do portion control because I want to not because I want to impress anyone with my "fantastic" weight loss.

The race is 7 months away and I think it's time I started thinking more about that process than anything else.  I'd really like to be able to finish it and in the time limit.

Breakfast: The protein drink after I got to work.

1st snack: Greek yogurt and almonds

Lunch: Turkey, broccoli and black beans, and avocado on a brown rice burrito.  So far not to impressed with the brown rice tortilla.  It's very stiff and hard.  Tomorrow I'll try a suggestion from a co-worker and micro wave it in a wet paper towel.

2nd snack: Cherry Pie Larabar

Dinner: Greek yogurt and almonds.  6 pieces of Dim Sum.  Low sodium V-8.  Small bowl of ice cream.

Did the recumbent random program and treadmill for the workout tonight after work.  Another great workout.
