This weekend wasn't terrible...

Friday ended up eating out for dinner, had a low day up to that point so had a broccoli, tomato, grilled chicken & spinach stromboli & a cannoli.

Saturday - good all day, grilled tilapia salad for dinner, ice cream for dessert.

Sunday - pretty good calorie wise, though had a few pieces of candy in there. Ran 8.25 miles at the park.

Today:
E: yoga done this morning, planning some strength training this afternoon. May have to be a UB focus day as my calves are killing me...

B: smoothie, honey wheat english muffin
S: smartfood popcorn cluster snack bag
L: grilled chicken salad
S: strawberries & blueberries, string cheese, yogurt w/ berries & maybe some kashi go lean crunch
D: ground white turkey tacos
S: depends on how disciplined I am with the tacos, either tea or tea & graham bunnies

Yes, I need to be OP and accountable - I will not gain this holiday season, and my plan is actually to lose.....

B - Cheerios with walnuts, 1/2 banana, skim milk; 1/2 ww bagel w/pb,
S - ff latte
L - homemade veggie soup, leftover turkey tenderloin on ww sandwich round, slice of 2% cheese
Ss - 1/2 banana, hardboiled egg, 5 dried plums (aka prunes )

Ex: UB and some HIIT I missed a couple of cardio sessions and this UB workout last week, so I decided to do my workouts in reverse order (UB today, LB on Wed, full body on Sat) and to get a jump on cardio since I know I have a meeting tomorrow night.

I realized that I never posted dinner plans yesterday, which is just as well as I didn't eat what I'd plan, and I certainly was not OP. Sigh.

B - oatmeal with walnuts, raisins, skim milk; 1/2 ww bagel
S - yogurt with pineapple
L - homemade veggies soup, tuna
S - hardboiled egg
D - ? it's a city council night so they'll provide dinner, likely cold cuts

Ex: assuming the council meeting is short (which it should be) I'll be doing some cardio. Last night's WL was good, but the cardio was more of place holder than HIIT.

Okay, lunch went off the rails.

I skipped my morning string cheese snack, ate a little fruit right before lunch because I was waiting on my coworker to get to a good stopping place to go downstairs. Longer than normal wait downstairs, by the time I got to the counter my planned grilled chicken salad became a burger with bacon, lettuce, tomato & 1/2 slice of cheese & 5 onion rings. And a fried apple pie, which is taking the place of my planned afternoon snack. I'll still come in line for calories with my planned lunch and with tweaking some snacks, but my protein is going to be down and my fat is going to be up.... Again... I am my own worst enemy...

I kept the rest of the day in line yesterday and even exercised when I got home. I think I came in somewhere around 1900 for the day, haven't done the math with my evening snack yet, am adding it quickly in my head.

Today:
E: maybe an off day, might get some work in if I get home in time. Will try for some yoga after the boys go to bed.
B: kashi go lean w/ skim, craisins & banana, hot cinnamon green tea
S: yogurt w/ berries
L: 1/2 grilled chicken salad or wrap w/ soup if I go out, or my normal grilled chicken salad from here
S: string cheese, apple
D: most likely a sandwich, maybe some leftover broccoli, spinach, tomato & grilled chicken stromboli if I'm feeling okay calorie-wise
S: depends on dinner choice

I am drinking hot cinnamon green tea this morning with no added sweetener. I'm so proud of myself.
