Day 337 (Vac day one)

So first day of vacation and I did fairly well.  I did go to the chiropractor and made preparations for my new computer.  I ate some meals I normally wouldn't and did go to Tabata.  Off to a good start if you ask me.

Breakfast: Greek yogurt, almonds, and Chia seed.

Lunch: My first Vac meal.  I went to the New York deli and had a pastrami and turkey on rye with cole slaw as part of the sandwich.  I normally get a salad (potato or pasta) and a drink(soda) but I passed on that.  When I got home I remembered I had Cheetos so had some of those.  Overall it was good as I would have had the salad, the drink and Cheetos.  So I'm very happy with the decision I made for lunch.  And it was lunch with Tabata waiting in the wings.

Snack: Before Tabata I made a fruit salad with a melon, pear, and orange mixed with mango/peach salsa.  I had some but not all as my pre workout snack.

After Tabata meal: 2 cups of broccoli mixed with quinoa(3/4 cup) and salsa.  Did satisfy me and I chose not to drink the protein drink.  I did have a fair handful of almonds a bit later in the evening but felt fine until I went to bed.

Tomorrow I will be getting a new computer and I have to buy the installer lunch.  We plan on Mexican.  I'm looking forward to lunch.  Afterwards though I will end up going to the gym and lifting weights.  This will be in the after noon as opposed to the evening as usual.

One comment by my chiropractor was encouraging.  He asked me how the weight loss was going.  I said it was the same as usual but he commented that looking at me from behind ( I was laying face down on the table) my upper back looked slimmer.  Cool.  It's working!  Thanx L.
