So, as I mentioned in the last post... you have a few bad days and you just move on and improve where you can. I just try to play the numbers game. More food + less calories = satisfied, happy belly. :) I needed to get back on track, so today, that's exactly what I did!
As you take a look, you'll be able to see that I ate 3 FULL meals, and had a little of my weaknesses too (chocolate AND booze), but I came in under calories since I've started sharing with you. I probably should have actually eaten more today, but I had a crazy busy day didn't have time to stop. :)
The potential for an atomic calorie bomb was dinner... but since I made it a home instead of going out, we had baked fries instead of deep fried and skipped all of that *extra* butter and grease (but they were still good and NO ONE in the house was complaining). The same meal (philly sandwich and fries) at Great Steak would have been over 1,000 calories. That substitution alone saved me the 500 calories that I'm trying to reduce each day. It's these kind of swaps that will help you to feel like you aren't missing something in your life and keep you going when it gets rough.
More swaps coming soon.
