So today was a good day, here is what I ate:
Breakfast - Protein shake (1/2 scoop Shakeology mix, 1/2 banana, 1/2 cup non fat milk, ice)
Snack - Artichoke dipped in melted butter
Lunch - Stuffed bell pepper with 2 tbsp light sour cream, homemade chocolate chip cookie from coworker's mom (the tiniest homemade cookie you have ever seen :)
Snack - String cheese at work, sugar free/fat free chocolate pudding cup at home to fight off the beginning's of a chocolate craving
Dinner - Stuffed bell pepper, 3 oz chicken breast with sugar free BBQ sauce, 1/2 cup green beans
I don't mention it each day, but I drink at least 8 cups and closer to 12 cups of water a day. I think this is very important for many reasons and highly recommend it :)
Today was a stressful day with a work deadline, but I felt in control and upbeat through it all and didn't have to fight back wanting to eat bad...thank goodness! I did a good 30 minute cardio workout (Power 90 Sweat 1/2 video) at home before my chiropractor appt. and then we spent the night at the softball fields watching the two championship games. I even passed up the ice cream cart and it was no biggy...I love when it is just easy. My fibromyalgia has been flared up all week (I think from stress), but I was much more in control mentally with it. I am still wearing my wrist brace and my right knee is acting up, but I'm not letting it get me down. I am just changing up my workouts around my "injuries" until they pass or deciding to rest instead of workout. Trying to focus on the food aspect more and just maintaining a balance each day with all that happens in my world.
How is everyone else's week going? Any fun plans for the weekend? Have a great day!
