I'm so excited to have a 3-day weekend! :)
breakfast: 400 calories, 5 carbs
***I've decided that no matter what the prescribed caloric intake for the day is, I want to eat more calories in the morning and taper down throughout the day. That way there is a better chance I'll burn off the bulk of it.
The high today is 48, which means I can finally extend my walk without my face freezing off. Exciting. Moar later.
____________
Today has been incredibly busy, yet awesome at the same time. M got paid for one job he finished (we have a web design company) and a call from a random guy who is going to start a job with him Monday. Money = YAY.
I went to the store and got some vitamins. I also got a bottle of Acai, although upon investigation there isn't any clinical research that proves that it helps with weight loss, but whatever, I'm going to try it out.
Lunch: 400 cals, 5 carbs
Dinner: 190 cals, 4 carbs
Dinner presented an interesting conundrum; I became frantic trying to make it equal exactly 200 calories. I measured my lettuce to exactly 15 cals, and I knew I wanted a 100 calorie tuna packet on it, but I just can't eat salad without dressing on it and all we have is ranch which is a wopping 150 cals for 2 tablespoons. I was literally FREAKING out. "I can't go over that much. Was lunch REALLY 400 calories...maybe it was less...NO, NO I can't go over, I CAN'T GO OVER." So I stared down at my plate and finally it hit me, "Just put half of the dressing on it, idiot." So I did, and I am pleased. Ugh. I know I shouldn't be that concerned about 65 calories, but what is the point in having rules if I'm only going to break them?
It's been a long day... off to SLEEP!

ReplyDeleteDude...You HAVE to HAVE to HAVE to get some Walden Farms Calorie-free salad dressing. YES!!! Have you not tried it?? It's only THE most amazing thing on this planet!! Seriously... calorie-free, fat-free, carb-free, gluten-free, dairy-free GUILT-FREE... And they have incredible flavors, too (ranch, italian, honey dijon, bleu cheese, CREAMY BACON, and my all-time favorite, sweet onion...)

Haha, I'm suddenly excited for you. A whole new world is about to open up to you with Walden Farms, seriously. Oh, and they have fruit spreads, too, like apple butter and raspberry jam...and chocolate dip and peanut butter (though the latter, I'll admit, is not my favorite)...Doesn't really taste a whole lot like peanut butter.
ANYway...done hijacking your comment box for now...off to be dizzy! Heh...it feels great at the moment...I'm trying to keep this going.
Hope you're well! Try that shit! You'll fall in love!
