Going to Lose: My Weightloss Journey!

So I think I did pretty awesomely today! Maybe a tad over, but in general, I think I estimated pretty well. I guess we’ll see soon enough

breakfast: tofu dog (45), tiny bit of ketchup (10), kombucha (35), yogurt (60), 1 tbpsp flax (30), 1/2 banana (55), 1/4 cup of cereal (35), 1/4 cup of berries (15) -285

Lunch: salad (230ish) and some pasta marinara (210?), and some fruit (30) {i think i made pretty good buffet choices, i skipped the pizza, bread, etc etc}- 470

snack: protein bar (120)

Dinner: Chicken Cesar Salad (480?) and some peanut m&ms (70) - 550

Total: 1425–>gah, i hope im done but ill probably grab a plum when i get back from the gym.

Workout: 48 min treamill including day 2 week 6 of C25k plus a bit more, and about 10 min of abs.

Well tomorrow is one of those TOUGH days, just two days before my weigh in day! I have a lunch and dinner meeting where food is being served to me! GAHH, i’ve been doing SO well the last few days when I have been planning my meals and cooking/preparing my own food. BUT that’s not real life and there are a bajillion times when I have to eat in another setting and make the right choices and use excellent portion control, and tomorrow is one of those days.  So, I have two goals for tomorrow:

Goal 1: At both my lunch and dinner meetings, make wise food and portion decisions.  If it is a buffet (which I know at least one meal is, if not both) only make one, initial trip.  No seconds.  Do not get dessert.  Estimate that my entire amount of calories for each meal SHOULD NOT EXCEED 500 calories.  Try and make a noticeable effort to make decisions that prescribe to those caloric and portion goals.

Goal 2: If my evening meeting ends by 8:30 pm, bike home asap to change into my gym clothes and go to the gym to do day 2 of week 6 of c25k.  If my meeting ends way before that, dont putter around and, still go to the gym right away, so that I can also get in weight training and abs.

Wish me luck! I’m really aiming for a REAL LOSS this week!

Talk to you tomorrow!
