Day 02: New Year's Eve & Pizza

So today went really well ... for the most part. I had Muscle Milk, a banana, Greek Yogurt with peaches, and 8 oz. of V8 Splash for breakfast. About 510 calories, and a great way to start the day. For snack, I had 170 calories in roasted almonds. For lunch I had chicken noodle soup, 8 oz. of Naked Blue Machine and 8 oz. of V8 Splash. I believe (without my daily planner in front of me) it was about 300 calories. The soup pushed my sodium levels past what I wanted, but it wasn't bad. For my second snack I had canned peaches. For me this might have been a bad idea. I find my stomach processes fruit really fast, so within an hour I was super hungry. Painfully hungry. I got home and I hadn't decided on dinner ... but the future Hubs wanted pizza.

Well I let it go, because 'heck, it was New Year's Eve, and only day 2.' I let the pizza win. One last hurrah, with the knowledge I would walk first thing New Year's Day.

By the way, as of yesterday morning, I weighed in at 188.8 down from 190. I am not going to weigh in today, because I know the pizza likely pushed me back to 190 ... and I'd rather not look and upset myself. I will save my next weigh in for the up coming Sunday or Monday.

So Day 03 is here, and I started it out with a good night's sleep. Woke up and did my body photos, for progress checking, and am preparing to go for a brisk walk.

I am going to have a frozen "diet" meal for breakfast. I recommend if you are going to have a pre-prepared "diet" entree, it be first thing in the morning, when you get to dine like a King. Remember, they are packed with sodium. So it is better to eat it in the morning so you can burn through it and flush it out with PLENTY OF WATER!!!

Good luck, and happy new year.
