Take a bow.

Yesterday was a challenging day, as I thought it would be. I ate a cinnamon toast crunch breakfast bar (wasn't do good) and waited till I got to work to eat lunch. I had a chicken cup of noodles (I should have made a smarter choice) and a package of light spam. After working for a bit I got a really bad headache and was scared it was because I wasn't getting enough food so on my break I ate some tuna salad. I was craving something sweet so I bough a pez and ate on those. They're surprisingly low in calories. And for dinner I had mini pizzas that my boyfriend and I made. Overall the day was okay but instead of eating tuna and sweets I wish I would have chosen to eat some veggies or fruits. I ended my day with 31 calories left over and so far I've lost zero pounds. Today I'm looking to make healthier choices to get my calories in the best way and hopefully incorporate a little exercise into the mix!! Live with no regrets.

Today's a new day.

Yesterday was my first official day eating healthier and I'm pretty proud of myself. I didn't get a chance to eat breakfast because I took my brother tithe doctor and were there alllll morning. By the time we got home I was starving and really wanted to just pick up the ramen noodles I saw in the kitchen. I thought about it for a minute and decided making something would be much better for me. So, I cooked a chicken breast and brown rice and put lawry's Hawaiian sauce on top of it. Turned out to be a yummy and filling lunch! Most of my day was boring so I took a nap to prevent myself from grazing (I know should have exercised or something but one step at a time!) . That night my boyfriend and I went to chili's where I ate most of my calories for the day. I got a sweet tea and a water and for appetizer I had a bowl of chicken enchilada soup (if you've ever had it, it's amazing) and for dinner I ordered off of their lighter menu. I had the lighter chicken salad, which I thought was going to be okay and probably bland but it was AWESOME! I really liked the dressing they used (I think it's called honey lime vinaigrette) and it had black beans and corn. It was just yum. I will definitely get it again if we go back. I ended my day 91 calories under my goal and I learned that eating healthy can be satisfying and delicious. It just takes a lot of work!! Today I have to go to work and I work in a grocery store so I just have to keep reminding me self of my goals!!!!!! Live with no regrets.

Mind over matter.

As you can tell, things didn't quite go as planned. I gave up way to easy but starting tomorrow I'm completely serious. Hold me to that! I ate a lot today and kind of overindulged so I'm expecting to be sluggish tomorrow but hopefully with eating better I can see a change in that! I have a pretty empty schedule tomorrow so a goal of mine is NOT to eat when I get bored. I think I might try drinking a glass of water every time I feel I want to eat. Of course I won't deprive myself and between lunch and dinner I will have a snack but nothing big! I'm looking forward to trying to find an exercise routine I enjoy tomorrow. I don't usually enjoy exercise at all but hopefully I can find something fun so it doesn't feel like I'm exercising. Well I'll update tomorrow. Live with no regrets! :D
