How I Got My Groove Back

Learning to travel light and eat what's already in my fridge

Breakthrough...

I made a significant break through folks. I am talking MAJOR stuff here. First of all let me start out by saying how much better I feel. My neck is about 80 percent better, still has a little "twang" in it but nonetheless it is much better. I do believe I can resume regular activities now.
 
Yes, a break through. Last night I wasn't in the mood to cook. I had started my LAST govt. paper and was on a roll and really just lost track of time. So Peter asks the usual question, what's for dinner. He wanted Taco Bueno...I thought no not TB! So I looked to see how many calories I had left for the day which ended up being around  800. Ok I thought, I can do this. I don't have to get "my usual" there. Lets check out there menu online. After looking at the nutritional info I decided that 2 chicken soft tacos and a skinny cup of tortilla soup would be the perfect solution. I still managed to have 300 calories left!!! This is such a breakthrough for me. I KNOW I made an awesome decision!!!
 
TOM just got here and I really hope I am going to see some good numbers on the scale this week when its gone. Seems my body is liking the 214-215 range even though I have been kicking butt and taking names at the gym. But I can rest knowing I am doing what I am supposed to do.
 
Don't have a lot planned for this weekend. I need to take my govt test then I am DONE!!!! What a load off!!! I need to grocery shop and maybe I will clean out my closet and chest of drawers?!??!  I like to clean out things.  We didn't run this morningx so I need to get my miles in today, think I will just run on the treadmill though. Its going to be 104 today. ouch.
 
Hope everyone has a great weekend!! Here's to an on plan weekend!!!

what is it????

about the 214-215 range?  It's something. My body will fluctuate up and down right there and I can't get around it.

It's driving me insane....  must be the dreaded plateau and comfort zone for our bodies. hhmmmm.....

i guess i need to shake it up a bit more...

taebo.diva

 

That's great!!

That's so great that your hubby helped look after your calories for dinner!!  Congrats on sticking to program!!

Have a good weekend!  Glad to hear your neck is feeling a touch better.

Victory!

That is a huge victory.  Way to go!

Don't ya love it!

Congrats on the breakthrough...I've just discovered over the past few weeks by keeping track of my calories that I can fit in the yummy tacos with planning, and not bust the plan!  You did great!

Glad your neck is better!  Stay cool!  We're hot here, but I've been in TX at this time of year, and I know ya'll really suffer!

Woohoo!!

Great breakthrough!

Hooray!!!

Congratulations to you for pulling up the menu online and making a good choice. I'm proud of you!

Way to Go

I am glad you are feeling better.
