Broccoli Salad

Jan 4th 2011

I left my food journal at work so I need to record what I ate after work.  My wife made some delicious broccoli salad so I at a bowl of that.  I also ate a corn tostada.  I then had a cup of ice cream.  The steak I ate for lunch was making me sluggish and even sleepy.  8oz is just way to much steak.  4 oz is plenty!

My big weakness today was the mini muffins and donuts and work.  At least they were miniature. I still probably at 200 calories too many.

Breakthrough

Dec 4th 2010

I did it.  I'm below 220.  The scale read 219.8 after my run today. Granted, about 4 lbs of that loss is water weight but I will take it.  It is a moral victory.  That momentum is going to propel me to 216 by the 11th, 213 by the 18th, 210 by Christmas and 205 by new years!  If I really dig in I might make my goal of 199 by new years.  Let's do this!

Today I did 30 day shred level 2 which killed me.  I was seriously hyperventilating by the end and couldn't do the last round of abs.  After some rest I decided to go for a jog and rather than do my usual 3-4 miles I was feeling extra motivated and ran about 6 miles! That's what I'm talking about.  This man deserves a HALF A CUP of ICE CREAM!

Ate well today.  Need to wake up and do Jillian and go for a run.  My goal is to weighin under 221 tomorrow.
