Whatcha eating today? Tuesday, 1/24/2017

I have been in a bit of a rollercoaster for the last two weeks. Down a pound, up two, down two, up one. I know it is because I am not being consistent with my food intake. First,  I spent weekend before last in the mountains with friends. I ate too many carbs and snacked a lot. It threw me way off track. Then, I went to see PC last Wednesday, she says I am not getting enough calories. She made some comment about the honeymoon being over. I took it wayyyyyy too seriously. I let it throw me into a funk. But, this is my journey and I don't have to believe everything I hear :-). So I jumped back on the wagon hard yesterday.

B - Protein coffee

S - 1/2 banana

L - Cheese stick and sugar snap peas

D - Hamburger steak w/cheese

Liquid -that's my focus today

exercise - Zumba night

Breakfast - salmon

Lunch - pizza casserole

dinner - Mediterranean chicken with apricots and olives - yum

Its time to cook again, and I'm going to concentrate on good diet foods for the next few weeks, and see if I can get down a couple more pounds.  The continuing struggle...

Dinner - 1/3 cup homemade Kung Pao chicken (no carbs), 5 oz glass wine

The leftover vegetable beef soup at dinner last night did not sit well in my tummy, so the rest is going in the freezer. Maybe I will revisit after some time and see how it goes..if not hubby and my son will eat it later. Trial and error with this tiny tummy..

B1 isopure protein shake 

B2 1/2 baked egg cup with spinach, black beans, pepperjack, and leftover rotisserie chicken 

L ranch tuna pack with a little Greek yogurt stirred in 

D my guys want pizza and wings so I will nibble on some toppings and have a baked wing

I have a Greek yogurt if I need a snack, but I doubt it..I stay so full trying to get in water and protein, it really is a job balancing the 2 this early out.

Vitamins are in.Water on track. Exercise, I walk alot at work but hoping at my appointment tomorrow I might get cleared to try more. I am excited to start trying some things to see what I like (biking, elliptical, who knows) Been a long time since I did anything like that.

Checking my blood pressure daily to track trends.  I stress ate very badly yesterday as I had to deal with some Day Job Hubris of epic proportions.  Immediately stopped that nonsense and got back on track today.  Sadly I also forgot my meds because I was in an epic hurry, sigh, which I don't think helped.
