Today was a hard food day! but, I planned for it, and I think I did quite well! I might have gone slightly over in cals, but nothing drastic AND i just rejected what looked like SUCH a good piece of cake that my roommate offered me. WOOHOO! GO ME!

today:
Breakfast: kombucha (35), yogurt (60), 1/4 cup of berries (15) -110

mid-morning snack: 1 homemade muffin that a coworker gave me, that I had planned for (130)

Lunch: 1 piece of burrito (370) and some tortilla chips (70)-440

Afternoon Snack: 1 plum (30) and some milk in my coffee (15)-45

Dinner/BBQ: 1 boca burger (100), ketchup (20), Chips and salsa (250), 1 Smore [treat!] (150) and some strawberries and watermelon (70)- 590

Total for the day: 1315–> i thought I did worse and I really tried to overestimate but that’s truly what I ate and nothing more. I’m really really proud of myself. My planning REALLY paid off because I just wasnt tempted to eat over my plan, since I let myself have things. I let myself have 1 smore according to plan and I SAVORED it. I kept heating it up and have the chocolate melt more and more. I nibbled on it and I truly tasted the flavors. I didnt feel the need to stuff my face with more than 1. and I think my meal plan really shows some progress in this whole lifestyle because I ate EXACTLY what I wanted and it was totally within plan.

After the bbq I went to the gym. I did Day 2 of Week 7 of C25k. and did some additional running and walking. so in total i did 3.35 miles in 52 min which included quite a bit of walking after I finished C25k, which I did entirely successfully. I ran at speeds between 4.5 and 4.7 and never below 4.5, for 26 min! go me! then I did 40 minutes of weights and abs. I love working out!!!

Now i’m off to shower and plan my meals for tomorrow and go to sleep! Hope you all are doing fabulously! (although I’m really sad that I dont have my recent blogs thing, still)

nighto!
