Went to the gym, first time in long long while, did 45 min in the elliptical, then went home, but it's a start.
Breakfast : Scramble made of 1 cup broccoli, 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, 1 whole egg, 1 egg white & 3 small fresh mozzerella balls..tad of olive oil (scramble is a lazy omelet)
1 homemade (homemade by me!!!) bagel, roughly 2/3 rd the size of a regular bagel, 1/2 tsp butter
Coffee/2% Skim
Then walked 12 blocks to a meeting, where I had a herbal detox tea
Came home around 4..then had 3 small homemade peanut butter cookies (homemade by me!) which I know for a fact had only 4Tbs of butter , 1 cup sugar in the whole batch (@ 40 cookies total).
Went food shopping at Target, so add another 5-block walk in there and had a low fat string cheese when I got home.
Now am making dinner we are going Old School tonight
Shrimp Cocktail ( I found 8 shrimp in the freezer, so 4 each) w/ homemade cocktail sauce (it is awesome BTW)
London Broil ( v. low fat cut) w/ rosemary, garlic & mustard
Horseradish Mashed Potatoes: Using 2% milk, Olive Oil and prepared Horseradish... if you add some thing really flavorful like horseradish or roasted garlic, you can do away with butter, use a LOT less fat and they are really really good.
Sauteed Pea Shoots & Arugula w/ Garlic
I'm not going to lie there is ice cream in my fridge, but I will eat a small amount . And I'll prob have 2 glasses red wine.
As far as water I need to drink more, like right now. What works best for me is to fill a large water bottle and keep it near me all day, for some reason when I drink it by the glass I drink far less.
I will also take this time to offer my most helpful hint : FROZEN VEGGIES. They are guilt free, meaning they do not lie in the bottom of your crisper drawer making you feel guilty by not eating them, they are nearly as nutritious as fresh and make it super easy to had a handful or two of veg to whatever you are eating.
upwards and onwards
