Day 22

Wow.  I felt like C-R-A-P this morning!  I slept really terrible, had a raging headache and was in a state of general discomfort throughout the night.  I woke up several times, couldn't get comfortable and had really weird dreams.  Ugh!  Glad to be back on the W30 wagon today!

Breakfast: Starting out the day on the right foot.  Sweet potato hash (I think it was my best batch yet) with two eggs, some sliced red pepper and an apple with a few grapes.  Yum!


Workout: I actually found myself putting off the workout this morning.  I knew it was going to be tough after the carrot cake yesterday and then I saw that "Pure Cardio" and "Cardio Abs" were on the docket...ugh...the hardest videos...well, got it done and felt really good after.

PWM: Scrambled up two eggs and some yellow squash.  And a citrus kombucha for the afternoon...apparently I was only eating and drinking yellow foods...


Lunch: A later lunch than planned but I wasn't really hungry so it worked out.  A burger patty topped with mixed greens, onion, tomato, mushrooms and a little bacon.  With carrots, a bunch of asparagus and half a balsamic bacon avocado.


Dinner: A late dinner because I forgot to take my chicken sausage to work so I waited to eat until I got home.  Pesto spaghetti squash with 2 chicken sausages, some cucumber and half a sweet potato in thins.  I was surprised I wasn't more hungry after so many hours.


Thoughts:
I tried an experiment today-normally at lunch I would have eaten two patties and the whole avocado.  (The patties are actually one thick patty cut in half so it cooks better on the Foreman) But today, I wanted to see if I'd be full after altering the amount of food.  I kept the amount of veggies the same and just decreased the protein and fats.  Well, I was full.  And full for a long time too!  I ate lunch about 145/2 and didn't sit down to eat dinner until right before posting this...so I sat at down at 750.  I didn't snack or anything today...just polished off the kombucha around 4pm.  Looks like I've been overeating and not even realized it.  Well, wonder how this will change my results!

I have more thoughts but I really need to eat my dinner...I'll have a longer post tomorrow...
