day 2
Well I've had a few good meals...and a few not so good choices...I'm trying to focus on the good ones, and not get discouraged! Lunch I had a sald...was quite yummy! Put minimal salad dressing, and not cheese, so it was good for me too! Dinner was another story...a girlfriend suggested a bbq place...which I've wanted to go to for a WHILE! So I got what I wanted..ribs...but didn't eat 'em all...they had terrible choices for sides, so I got onion rings (real onions battered and fried) and fried okra...the vegitable inside the batter and grease was good for me...*sigh*....drank 68 oz of water while at work...then at dinner had a big glass of water, but don't know the ounces on that...still have to get better about what I'm drinking...gotta get more water in me! Last night went for coffee with a friend, and did pretty good - got a Chai Latte...was pretty good...didn't have as much sugar as the fancy coffee drinks I usually get...
Since I'd gone out with a girlfriend...I didn't get home till late, then had to visit with the hubby (had a "minor disagreement") so didn't get any exercise in. Will do better tonight!
So far today breakfast was ok...had pancakes...had better options, but they looked SO good...unfortunately I wasn't thinking right and said since I did bad for dinner, might as well enjoy breakfast too...GAH! gotta quit that! For lunch today did pretty well...had "herb crusted chicken"...steamed green beans (tasted fresh too - not from a can)...and new potatos...got the coke that cae with it but drank probably 6 ounces of it, and put it aside and went back to the water! The water tastes better anyway!
So far today I'm on my 3rd bottle of water....so when I finish it here in a little bit, I'll have had 51 ounces of water today...I'll probably get one more in before the work day's over, and I can get several ounces in at school tonight, so maybe I'll make it up to the 125oz today?!
Planning on trying to get on the treadmill tonight...I think that's where I'm going to start...I've been wanting to run for a while...and if I'd have done it when I've wanted to, I'd probably not be up to the 249 lbs I weigh right now!
MUST GET THIS OFF!!!! I'm tired of people talking to me, and I notice their eyes shift down to my stomach, and I know they are thinking "is she pregnant"....which I AM NOT!!! I'd be ok with those looks if I were actually expecting...but I'm not...so it amplifies that I look fat! Not gonna get discouraged...gotta move forward...the weight didn't come on in a day...it's not gonna come off in a day!
