Day 3 - Dinner

Well after the hardest workout I have experienced since I started this healthy journey.  I could barely pick up my legs.

I made enchiladas.  Not bad only had 1

Day 3 -  Lunch by myself.

Just me again.  For lunch my bean, tomato, and green chili soup with cheddar cheese.   I need to drink more water before workout with warhorse.  I figure I can make it today.  I have been an emotional basket case and just PMS.  Darn hormones.  Feeling better this afternoon, and so Happy I get to go work out and see my adorable child.

...Just me

Day 3

It is just me this morning.  I am feeling so much guilt about my cheating of my food.  I'm very angry at myself.  I know I can do this.  I need to transform my thinking into not focusing on food every minute of the day.   Not sure how this is going to happen but I must find a way.


I had my normal protein shake for breakfast.  It is low carb, calorie, and high protein.  Prefect for my body.   I need to add more fiber to help keep me full.  My goal for this morning, find a food I like that is high in fiber that I can eat with breakfast or daily.

Day 2 - Dinner and downhill.

So I attend a student visitation tonight.  Stopped at the diabetic store (gas station).  I got chips, m&m's, and a coke.  Really, Just Me!  Yep, I turned to food.  I ate all the chips and drank the coke but not even half the m&m's.   I will find the strength to throw them away tomorrow.  I will find the strength tomorrow.  I will find the strength tomorrow.  

Got home, and had dinner with family.  Me, beans, green beans (bacon & onions), and 1/2 deviled egg.   Here is the thing, I'm not satisfied.  I could eat my entire kitchen and living room in one bite.  So how do I stop this impulse eating behavior that I have developed.  I have no clue and I don't  think anyone I've met knows either.

Day 2 Lunch

Well total failure on choices but I didn't eat much.  I keep telling myself from something negative comes something positive.  I learned again that eating out sucks!   The quality of the food is poor and I think they are buying the cheaper to turn a higher profit.  What this does for me is make me realize that I shouldn't eat out.

So what did I have?  4 fried shrimp with cocktail sauce,  1 small roll, blooming onion with sauce (about 1/2 cup).  Not a lot of food just the choices were terrible.

Oh, my mother wanted ice cream on way home.  Yep, we stopped and I had a chocolate shake - small.  I didn't drink it all.

I think my lunch sums up failure.  Why?  Why can't I stay on choosing healthy food around people?  Is this peer pressure?  Just more questions, and finding a pattern.

...Just Me

Day 2 and everything that comes with Day 2.

Well, late last night I got up and had 1/4 of noodles with butter and green beans with bacon and onions.   Failure.  What would lead me to eating well after dinner?  I wasn't hungry.  I did get an argument with my husband over something completely off the wall.  Did this lead to me eating?  Time will tell.  I'm here to document not only food but I'm looking for reasons.  Change..Change..Change..


We woke up late and I had my typical breakfast.  Protein shake, 2 pieces of bacon, and 1 fried egg.

Now here is the tricky part of my day. I'm stressed over things that are out of my control.  Why do I think things must go my way?  So I want to eat a bag of chips.  I just cleaned my car and found 2 bags that I ate within 1 day.  Really..2 bags with in a day.  Evidence right in front of me.  Crazy part of this is that I looked to see if there were any crumbs but NONE.  Even crazier, right?


I am going out to lunch with family.  Let's hope I do good......until later in the day..

Day 1 -- Dinner and after dinner.

I worked for an hour with my trainer and other women.  It had been over two weeks, changing food habits, not drinking enough water, and it felt like 100 F as we ran in the sand, worked with weights, and ran some more.  I honestly cried during part of it.  I felt weak.  I realized that I am human and failing is okay.  See, I failed at that work out.  I could have ran faster and more intensely but I didn't.  Why?  Oh for a later time on that.  But I did complete it.

This is the hardest part of the day for me.  Well,  any time is hard when it comes to food.  So dinner include 3 oz of ribeye,  my homemade bean and tomatoes, and 1 deviled egg.

Now, my child likes to eat ice cream with me for bed.  So I caved and have several bites...oh pure bliss.  

Overall day 1 was a success.  I'm ready for tomorrow challenges with food.

....Just Me

Today is the day, I take charge of my food issues.   I have so many questions about this process of learning about Just Me.  Why do I want to eat all day and every day?  I am not eating when I am hungry but more because I can.   So let's begin.

Breakfast:  Protein Shake -- Yuk!  But it does help with the cravings, 2 pieces of bacon, and 1 egg.

Lunch:  Salad (lettuce, red pepper, celery, croutons, and lite Caesar Dressing), 1/2 deviled egg, and bean soup (black beans, garlic, kidney beans, tomatoes, and green chili's).

It has been an hour since lunch and all I want is to eat everything in site but I'm not hungry.   I am going to work out with Warhorse Trainer and going to have a protein shake before then.    I'm not going to give into my cravings!!

I had a snack before my warhorse workout.  Protein shake and celery with peanut butter....
