I had a good day yesterday overall food & exercise wise. I’ll break it down,

  • breakfast - cereal
  • lunch - ww tv dinner & ww ice cream bar
  • dinner - southwest spaghetti squash & sweet potato fries (baked)
  • exercised - 1.3 miles walking with the dog, then 1.3 miles running on my own
    (we finally got a break in temp. here and it was 90 degrees!!!! at 8:00 p.m. woo hoo)
  • snacks - mashed cauliflower, 7 pieces of tortellini (no sauce, just boiled), and a handful of marshmellows.

The only problem is that I was STARVING by the time i went to bed (midnight) and finally at 4:30 am I got up and ate a bowl of cereal.

Today I am fighting cravings though. I ate a bowl of cereal for breakfast but I am moving thursday and I need to finish packing some things today and I need to clean more and I just don’t want to do it. Meanwhile I let my boyfriend borrow my truck so I don’t have a vehicle for a few hours. This is probably a good thing because I wold have gone and gotten a frozen coffee this morning. Right now I reallly want to walk across the street to McDonalds and get a hamburger and fries. (which is odd, because i normally don’t like mcdonald’s at all…) It sounds horrible but i want grease… i want fat and I want salt. I :(

Realistically I know that I will be eating out more than a few times in the next few days since I won’t have any way to cook while on the road (7 1/2 hr move) and then once I get there everything will be in boxes. I’ll just have to be smart about what I order and most importantly I’ll need to stop eating when I’m not hungry rather than finish it because “it tastes good.” So I need to buckle down and do what I have to do today without bribing myself with food.

*I’m putting on my determined face*

edit: Ok, so I decided to compromise. I didn’t go get fast food, instead I made a non-diet meal. linguine with meat sauce.  I used sirloin meat and drained it and then i used a pretty low calorie/low fat spaghetti sauce. No toast, no parmesan cheese, but still yummy.
