I'm bummed I already messed up on my whole "I'm going to be super awesome and healthy from now on" deal. But I can't let past mistakes poorly effect me. I just need to make good decisions today. I woke up feeling kind of sick -- just a cold, but enough to make me not want to go out to a workout class. As much as I'd love to lose 2 pounds every week, I don't think I should overly push myself and risk getting sicker, or injuring myself, or getting so overwhelmed that I give up. So I'm taking it easy today, but still being good.
For breakfast I had a slice of sourdough bread with unsalted butter, and 8oz of water. For lunch I had a light yogurt and the other half of that bibingka, with another 16oz of water. Second lunch was a cup of pancit noodles, with a cup of water. Snack was half a bag of light popcorn, with another 16oz of water. Dinner was two slices of buttered sourdough toast, and 16oz of water. And dessert/coping-with-screaming-kids was two squares of Ghiradelli chocolate. All that brought my total to about 1475 calories, and 8 glasses of water. So technically on track, but not great. Especially since I didn't exercise. All those carbs really make me want to snack more, but I'm going to be strong tonight. In fact, I think I'll go brush my teeth now and just keep a bottle of water next to me. By the way, carbs are super calorie dense. I mean, I hit my calorie limit without even eating very much, just because I chose poor foods. I have salad veggies, but I haven't been in the mood for that. I really want stir fry, but I don't have the right kind of vegetables for that. Guess I either need to go stock up on healthy options or change my cravings! Anyway, today was a 2/3 success, so I guess I get a silver star for that.
