TIP OF THE DAY: Buying single serving packages of foods -- especially snacks -- is a great way to control portions. Not only will they help you eat in moderation, the nutrition information is also handy.
If single serving bags prove too pricey, measure out individual servings into plastic bags when you buy the larger size packages. Just don't reach for a second bag or this trick won't prevent overeating.
Well today was a good weigh in day as you all saw! Scott and I even signed up for another 5k for June 6th. Tomorrow I plan to start my training program for the 5k next month. The only program that I found was to get me ready for a 5k in 6 weeks not 4. But if I don't have rest days then the 6 week plan turns into a 4 week plan. Do you think not having a rest day is a good idea? I am still playing with this idea. Also does anyone know where I can get a GOOD sports bra? Because when I work out the girls are always trying to hit me in the face and that hurts :)
Food wise today was not good. I mean, I just was not hungry at all today. I know it is bad not to eat or eat all of your points in one sitting, but I was just not feeling it today...I know me not feeling food, what's going on?! hahah. But here is what I did;
LUNCH: (#1 problem, no breakfast...you should ALWAYS eat breakfast. But I don't eat before my weigh in at 11)
1 cup Progresso reduced sodium chicken and wild rice soup-2 points
SNACK:
1 twizzler-0 points
a 100 calorie pack Carmel corn-2 points? (forgot to wright down the info but I think this is about right)
WORKOUT:
Wii Fit- did the balance games for 12 minutes (my legs are hurting from the other day so I did it light-GAINED 1 point
DINNER: (at work...) I forgot my dinner at home :(
1 bun-3 points
1 grilled chicken breast-4 points (the chicken was VERY bland)
1 slice Cheddar cheese-2 points
1 tsp mayo-2 points (?)
1 slice garlic bread-5 points
small side salad totaling- 6 points (guessing high here) by the way the dressing was balsamic vinegar and olive oil
SNACK:
sunflower seeds-1 point
Total points: 27 out of 30 points for the day. But after the workout/walking at work I GAINED 1 point so the TRUE value is 26 out of 31 points for the day.
I also drank just about 8 cups of water today. WOO HOO!!
Once again I forgot that darn pedometer...well actually I remembered it but don't remember where I put it while I was cleaning so I would not lose it...don't you hate when that happens?!
Well, tomorrow is the last day of the week end so make the most of it!! HAVE A GOOD ONE!
