Day 3- Spin Class

NOTE: I've decided that I will not be having a "cheat day" until Thanksgiving, that's ten days straight no cheating. I hope to weigh 118 Thanksgiving morning. At that point, I'll decide when my next cheat day will be :p

November 20, 2013 : 120.8 lbs this morning; I've gained since yesterday, but hoping it's normal fluctuation. I won't get too frustrated just yet.

9 am breakfast: One slice whole grain bread w/ peanut butter
11 am snack: 25 almonds
1pm snack: 1 fruit and nut bar
4pm snack: small bowl honey bunches cereal
5:30pm: 1/2 scoop adrenaline pre-workout

6:15: SPIN CLASS @ Gold's Gym My Spin Class FB

7:20 Cafe Rio - Here's where it gets hard. I want to continue going out to eat with my friends, but the challenge is choosing healthier options and not giving into temptation! Today I got the Wednesday Special, Chicken Tostada, but with a wheat tortilla, and without cheese or beans. I substituted sour cream for guacamole. I also only used 1/2 of a small house dressing container, instead of the full thing. All together, the meal probably still wasn't the best, but my combined choices almost cut the total calories in half! (Even more, if you consider that I subbed soda for water)

Day 2 - Power Pump

I followed the advice of my Spin instructor last night and went to bed starving. It's funny how my body has adjusted to expect popcorn, ice cream, or sour patch kids late at night! Peppermint tea just wasn't cutting it. But, the hunger was worth it, because I woke up this morning weighing 120.1! That's 1.7 pounds lighter than yesterday!! I realize that I probably won't see that much weight loss overnight ever again, but it was a great motivator to keep it up. :)

Day One-Leg Day

So, I woke up this morning feeling absolutely tortured that I was going to have to step on the scale. Knowing that yesterday would be my last day eating whatever I wanted to, I binged. French toast, cookie butter and crackers, Sunday dinner, popcorn, all that stuff. Tasted great, but I paid the price for sure! I weighed in at 121.8 this morning, more than ever before. Took me an extra hour of depression sleep to get over it, but now I'm feeling alive and ready to work for my results!
