I'm coming off a high all day from my successful first week. I've been feeling pretty dang good. However, aside from dancing with the kids I nanny a little bit this morning, I haven't done much exercising yet. I got a little distracted with the blog. That, and the kids' music teacher gave me a new song to learn on the piano (No, I don't play the piano, but I've been learning a few songs lately and she found one she thought I would like....she's right. I love it!). All day I've been planning on doing Wii Fit or something tonight. I'm sure I still will, cause I can't stand the thought of not getting more exercise in today. However, my niece, Ali, is flying in from Washington for the weekend. That could be a little distracting. I'll have to challenge her on the Wii or something.
As far as a food log, don't expect anything too detailed. I don't measure. I don't count calories. I hate that. The only reason I'm even logging it is so I'll have something to report on here every day. So....here goes.
Breakfast
- One egg - cooked over-easy
- One piece of toast, I even buttered it
- One cup skim milk
Lunch
- Instant brown rice and black beans
Dinner
- Red potatoes, cubed, fried in a little bit of olive oil, seasoned with salt, garlic, and Lawry's Seasoning
- Chicken, cubed, marinated in Italian dressing, fried in a little olive oil
- Corn - with a little butter, salt and Parmesan cheese
Various snacks throughout the day
- dehydrated apples (I dehydrated them and some bananas yesterday)
- Special K cereal bar
- pistachios
- Mini Delights
Just a little note: I love flavor, including salt. I know you're not supposed to eat lots of salt when you're dieting, but a couple years ago I had some blood tests done and was told I was low on sodium, so I'm running with that! Hehe! And butter - who wants dry toast? I'm certainly eating a lot better than I was, but I am not being a fanatic about it. I will not sacrifice flavor for a few less calories. It just isn't gonna happen.
