So to start off, Monday morning is going to be weigh-in day for this diet.
Weigh-in Result: 265.4
Still way higher than I want (basically the first Challenge started at this weight) but more importantly, I'm 8 pounds down this week. Yeah these are the water weight weeks...but still it's always nice to see the big numbers come off.
Today was a snowy miserable day...but I still had to hike into work unfortunately. Unexpected snow days are always a challenge to a diet. If I haven't stocked up on healthy foods then I'm looking through the fridge for whatever is left over. That's part of why I had ravioli yesterday. There was some leftover in the freezer and I decided to treat myself. Fortunately I did hit the supermarket on Sunday before the snow rolled in. So I actually had some healthy foods for dinner tonight.
Food today: Crispers cereal with milk and a light lemonade for breakfast (335 calories), a 6 inch meatball sub from Subway with sea salt potato chips and a diet coke for lunch (690 calories), dinner was two boneless pork ribs grilled in olive oil, rice and green beans (900 calories). There were no real snacks for the day (mostly due to lack of availability).
Exercise today: an hour on the exercise bike, but at 19 mph instead of 18 (570 calories). I'm hoping that will continue to creep up.
All in all a good start to another week of avoiding the water balloons.

Yum, dinner sounds delicious. Remember to get me to teach you the green beans recipe my roommate taught me that doesn't add calories but are delicious. And if you're gonna eat a lot of rice, you should get the same rice cooker Steve and I have, its amazeballs and makes the best rice I've ever had.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally on board for new green beans recipes. The current method of "dump frozen cut green beans into coffee cup and nuke for 3 minutes" is not particularly creative.
