Day 89

Today is probably the first day in about 2 weeks that I've felt REALLY GOOD. Like back on track, the old attitude, the ease of eating well...I really just think that sometimes the hormones fluctuate and things get ALL out of whack, and I now also think that the bad food I eat during those times makes my moods worse. I remember saying (way back when in the blog) that I noticed certain foods affected my moods, and it was like I forgot that...now I'm remembering that the worse I ate the worse I felt, physically and mentally. All I needed was like 2 days of pure eating to set me straight and get all the junk out of my system. I weighed myself today for good measure (no pun intended) and haven't gained or lost any weight in 2 weeks. That's ok because you know what? I'd rather be "even" than gain weight! Now I just have to keep up the good habits!

Here is what I ate today:

Breakfast:

-1 egg (sunny side up) with 1 slice of whole wheat toast and a TJ's hash brown
-1/2c almond milk
*I think breakfast may be my favorite meal of the day haha...I always really enjoy it!

Lunch:

-1 can of tuna on 2 slices of whole wheat with 1tbsp reduced fat mayo and 2 slices fat-free american cheese
*OK this is my first time making a tuna sandwich in years, so a couple notes on this. 1) 1 can of tuna is too much. Serving size is half a can, and that's what I'll use next time. 2) I am not a fan of this mayo, so I went today and bought a fat-free variety that I  used to use and love. 3) Is 2 slices of fat free cheese excessive? Not sure how I feel about that. I think I took a healthy sandwich and made it unhealthy haha.

Snack:

-1 banana
*While driving lol

Dinner:

-2 oz whole wheat pasta
-1/2c marinara sauce
-1tbsp grated parmesan
*As much as I LOVE homemade sauce, it is NOT the same when you microwave it days later! It's actually gross. I think from now on I'm only going to eat sauce the day it's made!

Dessert:

-1/2c rice pudding with 1/2 banana mixed in
*This is just so good.

Snack:

-2 TJ's mini-ice cream cookie sandwiches
*This might be one of the most delicious things i've ever bought from TJ's.

Water:

-1 bottle
*Need to get back up on this!

I also went to spin today (yayyy) and loved it...the wednesday classes are always so damn hard!! I really pushed myself though, came out sweating like crazy...just the way I like it! I also went food shopping today for a couple little items that I've needed...I got some lunchmeat, fat free cheeses, fat-free mayo, sugar-free syrup and turkey bacon! Great day, feel awesome and mood is at 100% again! It's about damn time!
