Hello friends, all of you are amazing and inspiring. I just finished reading your current posts for today and I feel inspired. I am willing to give up my little cheats here and there to find success for myself...no more bites of cake at work, or nutella I'm really gonna do it and not make little excuses. That said next weekend my will power will be tested because hubby and I are taking a little road trip to see his best friend for his 30th bday. In the past we have ate lots of sugary bbq and drank a lot. We already plan to bring a tri tip from costco to make sans bbq sauce. Do you guys think that if I have 1 whiskey on the rocks and nurse it all night that would allow me to share in the fun without cheating? This is something I have been thinking a lot about.
Anyway, today I felt better about things at work, a good night's rest did me good. If I have to move depts no big deal, I like my job and I am grateful to have one. Thank you for all the nice comments yesterday, you guys are very compassionate and understanding. As far as juicing goes I am going to stick with the low sugar items I eat and see how that goes, cleaning the juicer is a pain in the ass, so we will see how long I keep this up.
Breakfast: 2 flax seed muffing things that I used to make a breakfast pb&j...with almond butter and 1/4c frozen blueberries instead of jam...black coffee. celery, romaine, and lemon juice...strange but good.
Lunch: romaine salad with chicken, sliced almonds, blue cheese, ranch dressing, celery, radishes, 1 small yellow squash (the kind that looks like a zucchini) asparagus. black coffee
Snack; macadamia nuts
Dinner: 1 smart and delicious tortilla with crust less quiche inside much like a breakfast burrito with sour cream. It was a fast and yummy dinner and perfect after working late. Peach tea and 1 sugar free reeses mini peanut butter cup.
Mmmm your meals sound super delicious!! Good positive attitude you have about your diet and your job! :) I would say one whiskey won't hurt ya, but I don't know exactly...just my opinion. But wow, you have a strong stomach, cause I have tried whiskey before and just can't drink the stuff. Too strong for me. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the whiskey either. I do know how very fattening liquor is.
ReplyDeleteThe best bet is to maybe sip on a glass of dark red wine like Merlot, Pinot Grigio, or Cabernet Savingnon. Those don't have much sugar at all.
If you like wine that is.
Also watch out for the BBQ sauce, those usually have way too much sugar also.
Have a great day :-)
