Yesterday’s blog posting inspired me to invent and try a new nutrition plan for the next 30 days for myself!! The idea is that I can eat whatever I want, but I have to take a picture of ANYTHING and EVERYTHING I eat and post it on this blog – and have to be willing to take any criticism I might incur!!! You know, I think some ACCOUNTABILITY will be extremely helpful!! In addition, I am going to do my best to get more fruits and veggies into my diet, and eat a more BALANCED diet!! Wish me luck, and I would LOVE to her your thoughts in the comments section!! Thanks!!
Here is what I ate today:
Breakfast: Bagel, light cream cheese, chocolate soy milk with fiber added, fresh orange
Snack: None
Lunch: Leftover fajita chicken breast, with sauteed onions and bell peppers, over mixed leaf lettuce
Snack: 1 little Debbie’s peanut butter cookie (I ate 1/2 of what is shown), and 3 pieces of dried mango
Snack 2: 1 & 1/2 cup of popcorn – the pic looks huge but this is a childs’ size
Dinner: Sauteed onions and bell peppers, served over 3 eggs, with 3 strips of thick cut bacon – extra crispy (I actually ate 1 egg, and the egg white of another)
Snack: Pear
It is one thing to think you remember what you ate, it is a totally DIFFERENT thing to actually SEE what you ate; and because I am such a visual person this might just work for me!!!
On to other things about today:
I had posted a few days ago that I was hoping to create a haven in my backyard, and my sweet husband came over today and helped me get started!!!
I know this is hard to believe, but I actually helped with a ton of weed pulling too!!! (I even kept my hands and shoes clean – now THAT IS MORE LIKE ME!!! LOL! 😉
Here is the before:
Here is the after:
Also, I have been working on a puzzle for the past 2 weeks, and I finally finished it today. On a side note, I had picked this puzzle up from a second hand store, which should have been my first red flag. Sure enough, when I finished I realized I was missing a piece – AAAACK! Well, I guess if that is my biggest problem I have to deal with in my day – I am doing pretty DAMN WELL!!!! 😉
Have a FABULOUS evening!!!
That is a really cool idea! Looks like you did really well for yourself. You should be proud of yourself for allowing yourself and tasty treat and eating only half of it. Kudos sistah!
I am really happy to see that Jason helped you get your back yard started. I think you will be happier and the girls to be able to go outside and enjoy a coffee or iced tea and reading one of your bagillion books (lol) while getting some fresh air and Vitamin D.
Nette and I were wondering about you yesterday. We hadn’t heard from you…so on and so forth. Seems to me you were quite busy.
OH!!! I found an awesome find at Salvation Army on Friday and brought Nette to see it yesterday and she bought them. I cannot explain, but she will need your assistance in the placement of them….soon I hope!
LOVE YOU SIS!
That sounds AWESOME!! I can’t wait to see what treasure you found!!
Yes, I have high hopes for the backyard, well at least as high as that noisy little slab can get, but I am counting on small blessings, and hanging out there with my i-pod in sweet-blissful-oblivion! 😉
Yes, I have been a little MIA, but I will be back in touch, really soon!!! I promise!!! I will see you on Tuesday for lunch!!! I love you, Sis!!!! 😉
Love, C 😉
