So after a busy morning, a yummy breakfast of whole grain bread with peanut butter and banana slices and some hot tea. I headed off to bible study. Where I spent some much needed time with my ladies and my God! It was good like always.
I have had some time to contemplate some things. I always swore I would never be that mom that lived in sweats and my hair in a pony tail. Well my motto these days is the baggier the better! I have completely left the woman's department and moved on the to the men's sweats. Let's face it, the have more belly room and pockets! Nor do they cling to my unsightly mid section that I am so appalled by. They are way roomier in the backside as well so I can wear my granny panties, (which I also swore I would NEVER own!) and be totally and completely comfortable.
But the last 2 days I have done well. I decided today that since I wasn't that hungry at lunch I would opt for yogurt. And I snacked on some string cheese and a handfull of almonds. I have increased my water intake as well and am noticing a significant difference in how I feel at the end of the day. Then I baked some chicken and served it with corn, steamed broccoli and pasta with parmesean cheese. I made my portions the same size as the kids for the pasta and used 1/4 of the plate to fill with vegies and protein. I did actually have 2 small scoops if chocolate ice cream. Ant they were worth every calorie I saved today! It was almost heavenly.
So tomorrow will be the true test, when I step on the scale. I was blessed this week with my period and a prescription for augmentin which is tough on the stomach...so as a result, I was down 2 pounds as of yesterday! Now if I could get the cough to go away the exercise portion will begin!
Losing it one day and one pound at a time!
