Down 2.5 lbs. I didn't do anything more than I have been, but it's less stressful and maybe I'm less prone to feel like I want a cheat meal or I want something off my plan. No workout today. I ended up baking some chicken before it went bad. I think I'll freeze it for next week.
So I had a bit of a falling out with the guy I'm half in love with. We're not a couple and never will be, but we are something...blah. Anyway, I was all emotional since I thought he wasn't speaking to me and I started thinking about going out to eat and having my version of comfort food (sushi). I didn't mostly because work was hectic and by the time I got out I just wanted to go home. I will say there was a relazation that I'm only wanting to go out to eat to comfort myself with food.
I watched a season of the biggest loser while I was doing dietbet and one of the things they focus on was, how did you get this big? What habits do you have that stop you from eating normally. So I realized from that I eat when I'm bored, when Im happy and when I'm sad. Food is my friend...not a good friend, the kind your mother tells you is a bad influence and gives the evil eye to when you bring them over to hangout.
Anyway, by the time I got home last night I was hungry and didn't really having prepared to eat. I did meal prep Sunday, but that was just work lunches. Anyway I ended up with 10 nuggets from Wendy's and a bottle of water. Its pretty much my go to when I need something quick and sort of low carb. I've noticed that the grease is getting to me, so this isn't something I'll binge on, or buy regularly.
It would have been nice to have some kinda of quick low carb non salad snack. I picked up some protein bars, but they aren't exactly low carb. I usually have toast in the morning, but after that I'm pretty much zero or very little carbs. I don't count, but I don't eat any one thing I eat has 22g of carbs in it.
The I happened across a blog review and read the comments. Its funny comments under an article are sometimes way more helpful than the actual article. After reading these I realized the protein shake I had tried had me bloated and I couldn't figure out why. I thought it was me, but this might be my issue. So I"m going to hold onto the bars, but look for something with better ingredients.
I've learned the hard way that while calories matter, my sugar intake is what really controls if I'm going to lose weight or not. Annoyed that I spent $5.00 on these stupid things ARGH !!!
The good thing is I now have some rules to judge my snack by, no liquid sugars if possible.
Updates: I'm going to try the bars. Today is a good day since I didnn't workout and my eating should be the same. If I bloat or have some huge gain. I know its the bars. I also think I'll only eat half.
Wish me luck.
