We are almost 2 weeks into this and I feel like I haven't made any progress. Last week I worked out 6 out of 7 days for at least 45 minutes and really paid attention to what I was eating. I know this will be a process, but I would really like some instant gratification to keep me going. I think I just need some reassurance that my hard work and neglect of my family will pay off.
So to keep things real, I have decided to post what I eat online for the whole world to see as a way of being held accountable for what I am doing. Today is day 13 of our little adventure and in those 13 days the only sweet treats I have had are 2 Toosie Pop suckers from my kids Valentine's loot and I indulged in a Raspberry Sherbet cone at the BYU Creamery on Saturday. I feel like I am doing a great job of staying away from the treats and I need to focus on the other things I am eating. So here's what I ate yesterday...
Breakfast: 1/2 c. vanilla yogurt with 1/2 c. blueberries and 1/4 c. granola
Snack: 1 Banana
Lunch: 1 Ham and Cheese sandwich on whole wheat and a Mango
Snack: 5 baby dill pickles
Dinner: 3 Small cabbage rolls with 8 spears of oven roasted asparagus
After we put the kids to bed, my husband and I watched part of Inception so I made a bowl of air-popped popcorn with 1 Tbl of melted butter for the whole bowl.
I think overall I did pretty well for the day. I think I need to try and add more protein into my diet to even things out. What do you think?
