Day 381

Tabata!  Yes it's that time of the week again for me.  Also the day of weigh in for the weight loss contest.  I was very happy to be able to go to Tabata this time as I passed on the Monday class due to the leg feeling weird.  I really don't feel any worse than normal so it's on to Tabata.

The weigh in was a bit of a surprise for me.  I have actually lost more weight.  Today's weigh in was for 231.8lbs.  So in two weeks I went from 239 and change down to 231.8.  Crazy.  I haven't been doing anything different other than the carb reduction.  Which in my mind wasn't much of a reduction.  I guess it could be the cause but I'll have to talk to L about this new wrinkle.

Breakfast: Two eggs on a Wasa rye crisp cracker with tomato, avocado, turkey, and Swiss cheese.  20oz of cold water.

1st snack: Greek yogurt and almonds (24)

Lunch: The stir fried veggies with spinach and chicken along with black bean/corn salsa and feta cheese.

2nd snack: Today I did have a second snack.  I had a single Wasa crisp cracker with peanut butter and a Babybel cheese round.

Dinner: So there was a work meeting after work and the boss brought in pizza.  I did bring a protein drink and then also had three pieces of pizza.  Also when I got home I had some jerky and a low sodium V-8.

Interesting thought about eating pizza.  In the group situation like that with a variety of pizza toppings, it's really hard to be good.  I went in with the thought that I was only going to have two pieces but ended up having three.  Now I still think of that as a win as we know I could have eaten four or five easy.  And that's the issue, there are so many choices and you really can't decide which to have if they all look good.  So if that's the case and you don't have a plan then eating four or five slices is going to happen no matter what you do.  Really can you keep from eating to much pizza?  Have a plan of attack before you smell and taste your first piece.  That's what I think anyway and from now on that's my plan.  Pizza is great and but you have to keep it under control.  I hope to follow through with this plan in the future.
