Double digits

 Onward & upward!  I’m almost there.  Feeling proud of myself :)

Day 10 Menu:

Chugging Along

 Another day with our any detours.  I’m really proud of myself.  It’s nice to lose a few, but more so I’m glad to be feeling better & accomplishing my goal.  These 14 days are as much a mental challenge as physical.  I actually forgot how easy it is for the food planning too.  My flour, no sugar.  That simple.  It’s the will power that is the hurdle.  But I feel good about it!

Day 9 Menu:

Forgetful

 I completely forgot to plan my food menu last night, so I did it this morning.  And then I kept changing my mind about dinner!  Hope it’s not an indication of the day 😋

Day 8 Menu:

Survived the Stress

Today was a stressful day.  Waiting for X-ray results for my youngest.  Getting to work early and on time for a staff meeting.  Getting rained on at my oldest’s soccer game.  Oy!  In the very little down time of a day like this, I normally would’ve snacked and snacked and snacked.  Today I didn’t!  I still stuck to my plan for food for the day!  Feels good, really good.

Day 6 Tomorrow

 Almost halfway there!  

Day 6 Menu:

Onward!

 My daughter had an audition today & did absolutely amazing, I was so proud of her.  I want her to be proud of me too.  I want to show both my girls how hard work & will power can pay off.  Whether they know it or not, they give me a lot of motivation when it comes to my bright lines.  Watching them succeed and accomplish hard things, makes me want to do the same.  That thought crossed my mind several times today when I felt my tummy rumble a bit.  

Onward to day 5.  My menu:

Temptation

Today I was noticing my hunger between meals... a lot.  Luckily I had a busy day planned & was able to power through by drinking my flavored water.  Then tonight, the rest of the family wanted Panda Express.  I was very tempted.  Instead of the salad with taco fixings that I had planned with seasoned ground turkey, I had Art get me some plain chicken from Panda.  I still had my freakishly big salad with some excellent chicken.  And it not only tasted great, but I felt great.  I didn’t feel guilty because I simply switched up my protein.  Stuck to the 4 oz, it worked out well.  Another successful day!
