Stay on Track

Starting Day 5 this morning. Yesterday I consumed too much again. But again it wasn't all terrible stuff and I did avoid greasy foods even when they were right under my nose.

- Lean cuisine panini 360 cal

- turkey peperoni's (5) 70 cal

- spicy mini dill pickles (4) 15 cal

- Lean pizza pocket 390 cal

- Fat free puddin' cup 100 cal

- Sherbert cup 90 cal

- Banana with honey peanut butter 150 cal

- Slice of lemon cake 90 cal

- vodka tonic 100 cal

1365 calories, yikes! I really gotta watch the snacking. It's crazy how it sneaks up on you. I knew I ate too many snacky foods but until I added it up I was a little in denial. And I didn't really work out very hard. I did a little bit of aerobics but nothing to brag about.

I am very very proud that at Plucker's for Adam's 21st B-Day I didn't have ANY of the food they ordered: wings, chips and ultimate queso, fried pickles, cheese fries ugh! It was super duper tempting. I was a little disappointed that Brian gave in. He's obviously not totally on the diet band wagon with me. But he also didn't try to get me to eat any of it. He knew not even to offer and apologized after ordering. How is he not fatter? It's not fair.

Today I started well. I had some strawberries for breakfast on the way to work. I'll probably go for a cup of 100 calorie hot chocolate because it's so cold and I like to drink it while everyone is drinking their coffee. It makes me feel business-y. I brought a Lean pizza pocket (360 cal) for lunch. And for dinner, we're defrosting some chicken breast to eat with steamed veggies. I'll do the Boost Metabolism Jillian video and the No More Trouble Zones video tonight which is gonna hurt tomorrow. But I'll remember the motto - regret hurts worse than self discipline. It's really true.

I can't deviate from the plan! The Christmas parties and dress fittings are in a matter of days and I waited way too late to start focusing.
