Oki doki! Day 3!
I`m doing pretty good--despite eating an entire bar of ritter sport chocolate today, I still stayed within my calorie limit (mostly due to the fact that I was out shopping instead of at home looking in the fridge......)...
I´ve got a liter to go for the day. Dinner was small and didn´t need to be frozen--there´s just enough left over for my husband when he gets home tonight from work.
Gained weight--about three pounds overnight--probably due to AF, though, so I´m not panicking. It will most likely go away within three or four days.
I´m still fed up, though. Not with myself, rather with my husband.
He´s always complaining about how he needs to lose weight and frankly, I don´t think I´d mind it either...although I can´t complain too much, because he put up with me when I was pregnant and weighed 183......and he didn´t even say one thing about me being big back then (other than my baby belly, hehe)...
Anywho...I´m getting sneaky...I´m trying to get him to switch to whole grain breads, which is tough, but hopefully possible. Like I said, I´ve started freezing leftovers. I´m controlling his portions in the kitchen, before serving, etc.....
I still have some struggles, though....like how do I get him to lay off the sunflower seeds that he eats millions of in the night. I know it could be worse, but he literally eats cups upon cups of them! He´ll go through a huge bag in just a couple days! I think I´ll suggest to him that he not eat after 9 or 10 p.m.?
And how do I get him to drink more water? I´m thinking that getting him a fancy water bottle might motivate him a little?
I´ve almost completely cut out butter and use olive oil most of the time...I may go out of my way to find cooking spray (there has to be spray somewhere in Germany! Kaufhof´s grocery section maybe?)...
I´m also trying to come up with ways to get him out of the apartment to go walking a little more often--maybe it´ll be easier now that summer weather has arrived?
How do I get him to watch what he eats more so that I don´t have to hear him curse his belly?????????????????????
