I went and bought the Fitbit today. I am so in love with the silly thing already. I have been really good about eating all day. Dinner was a bit harder but somehow I am still allowed another 200 calories. As I sip my red wine I realize I am probably going to break even for today. For day one I think this is a major success. Tomorrow is back to reality. I have no more holidays left and it's back to work.
Lunch tomorrow is all packed (something so extremely rare for me)
A cabbage salad with raw nuts and an olive oil with reduced sodium soya sauce dressing.
Oikos 0% coconut yogurt
Gala Apple
I will probably eat a bowl of oatmeal in the morning if I have time. If not my purse is stocked with protein bars to stash in my desk for all those days I forget my meal and am tempted by all the temptations. (I work in a grocery store which makes it either really easy because I am surrounded by healthy food OR really hard because when a craving strikes ANYTHING I want is within walking and grabbing distance)
The cabbage salad I made is a variation of a way saltier and unhealthy version I fell in love with last summer. I take out all the unnecessary carbs, salt and seasoning and am left with something only about 150-200 calories for a massive bowl. I added lots of raw nuts this time for a bit of crunch and to make it more filling as it is becoming my meal rather than my side so it's probably closer to 300-350 a bowl. I will calculate that tomorrow with my fitness pal.
I also know I keep saying that I will do my measurements but I couldn't buy a tape measure today. The store I went to was completely sold out. I have a walmart and two dollar stores near my work so I will definitely buy one tomorrow and get all my measurements done within the next day or two.
I apologize for the randomness of this post. Once I am more established in this blog I will have specific posts. Meals, workouts, my bizarre existence etc. Until then have fun deciphering the crazy!
