sweet saturday
Food breakdown: no breakfast. Lunch was a salad with chicken, feta, romaine, spinach, tomatoes, chickpeas and olives. Dinner was a sandwich with chicken breast, one egg, sliced gouda and mustard. Snack was lots of roasted teriyaki seaweed. Sandwiches are another food I have to tread lightly with, like pasta, though not quite to the same extent. I LOVE a delicious sammy and have been known to go on sammy binges that last two or three weeks. I’ve been fine with it so far- healthy bread, veggies, lite mayo or none at all, but I have had a couple of them this week and I feel like I’m still in the phase of the diet right now where I need to stick to what I know makes me lose weight and not want to binge. After I ate the extremely protein-heavy sandwich tonight (I’m out of vegetables and too lazy to hit the store), I started immediately to consider blowing my diet off for the night in favor of a slew of popsicles, potato chips and cake. But I pulled it back together and all is well. Actually, I tried on several pairs of pants that I couldn’t even button a few weeks ago and now, not only are they buttonable, but they actually almost fit correctly. Another two weeks and it’ll be like a whole new wardrobe. Must persevere.
There is almost nothing that feels as good as fitting into a pair of pants that was too small - great job!
