Well Hello Readers! Sorry it has been so long since my last post but things have been busy. I had a date night with Hubby on Monday. Dinner and a movie. I think I did pretty well eating out at Texas Roadhouse except for those darn rolls and cinnamon butter. I am drooling just thinking about them again. The movie we went to see was The Dilema. Please don't waste your money seeing it in theaters. Not horrible, but not worth the ticket price (and, really, what movie is these days.)
Wednesday I had a Mom's night out at Mexico. I worked out a little longer than usual to balance out all the calories I knew I would consume. I ended up getting a veggie taco salad and only ate 3 bites of the shell which for me, is a small miracle.
Now on to today. I did my workout already, ate a nice healthy breakfast and have great news!
I AM DOWN 5 POUNDS!!!!!
I am actually pretty shocked since I ate out twice this week. I guess it is true that you can eat anything in moderation.
I am having a problem with snacks. I need ideas for filling but low calorie snacks. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Until next time! Sending you healthy vibes!
protien is important for snacking, so it keeps you fueled and full till the next meal. I usually grab a low fat cheese stick and some fruit. 1/2 apple, grapes, ect. WHen I dont feel like a cheese stick, I mix cocoa dusted almonds (good for you and cures a sweet tooth if you have one, but reg. almonds work too) and some craisens. 1/3 wheat bagel with almond butter works too. Good luck girl, proud of you for sticking with it :)
ReplyDeleteYay! Managing eating at restaurants is a huge part of this and you're doing great!!!
ReplyDeleteFor snacks we eat low fat cheese sticks, raw veggies, almonds, or oranges (citrus cuts hunger) or 94% fat free popcorn (for the salty) and for the sweet - cut bananas with a small amount of honey dribbled on top (microwaved 5-10 seconds to warm it).
Also - we have the Hungry Girl books and they have some great snacks for low cal treats.
