Good morning all! Early start to the day today and I had a few extra minutes so I thought I would hop online and get things started. Yesterday I fell off the rails with my eating in the afternoon. I know exactly what happened and it is a pretty easy change for next time. Basically, I just let myself go entirely too long between meals/snacks and I fell back into old habits and grabbed food instead of eating healthy at home. I can say that even my off plan eating was still better than it would have been 8 months ago but it was a definite reminder that those habits are not gone for good. Today is a new day and I plan to make better choices. 

B: Carbmaster chocolate milk/protein shake (pre/post workout)

L: Chicken Tenders and grapes (didn't eat these yesterday)

S: Beef Jerky & Cheese Stick

D: likely a P3 pack as I will be out and about this evening. 

W&V: starting

E: about to head to boot camp and will also walk 2 miles after

NEXT?

Pulled pork & buffalo chicken on the same day??? Now THIS is a menu that I can get behind :) Those are two of my favorites.

The nice thing about maintenance is that you can eat higher calorie foods.  If you keep your serving size to 4 ounces, its not too many calories.

I often wish I could eat more than that, but I just tell myself, "its ok.  You can eat again in 3 or 4 hours."  

Did I mention?  I love my sleeve.

I love my sleeve too. I'm not up to 4 oz portion sizes yet but I know it will come in time. Honestly, I'm not in any big rush for it although, yes, I do at times wish I could eat more. I have always struggled with eating too much because my mouth wants it instead of my stomach. That is something that I have been really trying to focus on over the last several months.

I have seen you eat buffalo chicken with wheat thins several times.  How do you make your buffalo chicken?

Another day.  

1: frankenshake
1.1: cheese stick
2: leftover greek chicken salad
3: I'm still deciding.  I'm thinking I'll do breakfast for dinner simply because there are a LOT of leftovers in the fridge right now and BFD won't add to that.  So that'd be cheese omelets, bacon, hash browns.  I think I have some green onions I can add to make the omelets a bit more exciting.  

liquid and vites: on track
exercise: yoga class (personal trainer is out of town)

I love breakfast for dinner! I actually scrapped what I had planned for diner on Monday because I was really craving cheesy eggs. i decided that was an acceptable substitute :)

I ended up doing fried eggs, bacon, and hash browns.  Yum.  Now I'm full.  :P

I also waited too long before my afternoon snack and dinner.  Luckily, I had half a Jersey Mike's sub in a tub waiting for me, so I did not grab anything before.  Afterwards however, I snacked more than I should have.

B - Pure Premium chocolate chip protein bar

L - roast turkey roll ups with 1/4 avocado and cucumber strips inside

D- possibly a hot dog

S- pistachios and/or watermelon

vitamins - on track

water - ahead of schedule

exercise - walking towards my 10,000 steps
