one day at a time.

Sunny evenings are so beautiful. They make it all better, especially after a day of feeling like a whale at the pool.  Now I'm back in clothes than can cover some of the imperfection at least.
intake;
80 -light&fit yogurt
50 -special k blueberry
20 -5 cherries
12 -iced coffee w. milk
65 -6 tortilla chips
300 -quesadilla (wtf)
47 -boiled egg white, half yolk
142 -chicken breast
5 -lettuce/cucumber
15 -5 cherry tomatoes
25 -mustard/balsamic vinegar/lemon juice
25 -coleslaw (ugh)
6 -2 strawberries
total; 792cal

My goal was to stay under 1000, and ideally under 800. So, I'm definitely pleased. Baby steps. Get lower and lower everyday, and so shall my weight. Went for a run earlier and according to my Nike+ thing, I burned 143cal. Not too shabby considering it was over 80F. Spent the day at the pool, felt so awfully huge, but being there with Ben made it better. I care about him far too much. And I don't even care. Ah well. I'm pissed about that goddamn quesadilla I ate at the pool though, not gonna lie. But I must stay positive.

Saturday I leave for Cape Cod..including the driving time I'll be gone a solid ten days. I'm getting worried - yes, I can go for runs along the beach in the morning and whatnot, but I'll also be around my parents the whole time, and there's the problem of eating out too..we'll most likely end up going places that aren't chains and therefore won't have nutritional info on their websites. I'm probably going to make a "safe list" of things I can get at various fast-food-y type places on the way as I don't know where my parents will decide we stop. Also, on the bright side, there shouldn't be too much sitting around unless we just go to the beach. Also, I'll be running around after an adorable 5yr old girl, not just chillin' with the old folks.

I'm coming up with a plan for the next month. I would love to be below 120 by August. Today I weighed in at 126.  That's definitely doable. Ideally, I want to be 118 by August, as then if I can lose another eight before September, I'll be at a beautifully slender 110 for the fall:) At which point I'll be moving into my apartment and will have no one telling me when to eat! :) Hoorayy.

Sorry, long post, lots of love to you if you read it:)

  2. I agree, sunday evenings ARE lovely. And that nike thing is a really good tool, I've heard so many success stories with it!
