I don't know where I am on the scales cause I'm on vacation and don't want to become discouraged. However last night I put a dress on that I haven't been able to wear in 6 years. Last month when I tried it on, I couldn't get it zipped.
I certainly celebrated yesterday....but those kinds of days don't come very often. I did enjoy every mouthful, but am back on my program today. Breakfast was 2 turkey sausages with 2 eggs made from egg beaters, plus my 22ozs of coffee. I use 12 oz coffee cups. Sometimes I use skim milk and sometimes I drink my coffee black. For lunch I had a 7oz chix breast. I'm really not very hungry ...perhaps from a carry over from dinner last night and too many carbs...but I didn't want to skip a meal. I drink Sam's water from Wally World. I like the taste, comes in 20 oz bottles and makes my water drinking easy to calculate. I reuse the bottles and fill them with tea or crystal light. On Mondays I take a ton of bottles to school for the week. I've been drinking at least a 100 oz of fluids a day making 60 oz of them plain water. (I know where ALL the restrooms are in all the store I shop at ) The tap water in my area has a sulfur smell and taste to it, so drinking it from the tap is not an option. However, I do use tap to make my coffee, tea and crystal light. As long as there is something else in the tap water, I can tolerate it.
I will get back on the scales on Monday. I am trying to eat as few carbs as possible. Since I made that switch I find I am less hungry and the scales move faster in the direction I want. Tomorrow night we may be meeting friends for dinner. The place were we go have great hamburgers. I will order a burger without a bun or dressing and eat it with my fork. I also tell the server not to bring the fries...no use tempting me. I WILL eat them if I see them.
We have an in-and-out burger fast food place here. I like eating there cause I can get what they call a protein burger. Its a burger wrapped in lettuce. I usually order 2 and eat the meat alone with some lettuce and tomato. Sweetie loves eating there...he's as thin as a rail and and eat anything....so it makes it easy for me to stay on my program.
