Healthy Dinner

Ok, tonight, Chris and I had a very healthy dinner of cracked black pepper pasta with tomato sauce. I had a pretty healthy sandwich for lunch too...now I just need to get my fruit intake for the day, and I should be good for today. I had a few cookies that my roommates grandma made, but that was my only bad-for-me food today. My portions were even good! Oh, and I had a jicama before dinner....part of one anyway. So that's part of my vegetable count for the day. Now I just have to work out today...I'm going to do that while studying I think. I have a lot of reading to do, and I can do crunches while doing that.

Avoidance is Key...

to backsliding. If you avoid what you're trying to achieve, naturally, you'll back track. Such has happened with me. I don't know why I was surprised when I stepped on the scale today. I haven't been working out as I should, and I haven't been eating healthy. I guess I was just surprised at the number. I definitly took two steps back for my one forward.
Here's the good thing though. I now am more motivated (again) to work out more and to eat healthy. I actually have groceries, so I can make some pretty healthy food, as long as I don't wimp out about it and order something.

My goal this week is: To work out every day, whether it be at the gym or in my room with my big ball and weights. To eat healthy for every meal, whether or not I am eating out.

Steep goals, given my track record, but I will weigh myself at the end of the week and see if I have made progress. Wish me luck!
