that's the attitude i took towards my new plan,and hell it worked. i decided i'm either going to start my plan now, or i'd keep putting it off, waiting for the right time, whatever that would be. and i was perfect yesterday.
i have to keep this short, i don't have much time before fitness. i'm going to do my usual workout when i have spare afterwards; burn 1100 cals. yesterday i ate my usual breakfast, an apple; my usual lunch, some small celery stalks and cucumber slices; no snack after school; i had 3 litres of water, one crystal light; then dinner, one salmon portion (approximately 5 oz, so 260 cals) and some rice (one portion i think, so about 160 cals) and the nothing else but a coke zero. i am extremely happy. for some reason i didn't wake up with morning stomach though.. i figure if i stick with it, i'll get morning stomach tomorrow morning. doing the same plan today, except i get more of a workout today (yesterday i didn't get to go to the gym in fitness) and i have a memorial to go to.. not a big deal for me really, i'm doing it to support my nanny, it's her brother (who i've never met, so it's just a courtesy thing.. won't affect me too much) only thing bad for my plan about that is that i have no idea if there'll be snacks, i know i could claim i'm not hungry, or i don't like the snacks (i probably won't) but unless there are pickles (5 cals each from a jar, i'll allow myself a few) then i can't have any. also the place is an hour and a half away, so my dad said we'll get dinner out.. kind of scares me. i don't know where we'll go, or what to get, or what's the best option. some salads at restaurants can be 1300 cals. it's scary. i know i always get without dressing and croutons and bacon bits (yay vegetarianism) but still.. i'm thinking soup's a pretty safe option; broth based, not cream based. or if he means like fast food, which i can't have really 'cause it's all hamburgers and stuff.. and no way am i touching french fries. their salads are also pretty awful. hopefully i get subway, my god i love subway, a half sub sounds great, tomatoes, cucumbers.. i've switched american cheese to swiss (lowest calories) and mayo to lite mayo to mustard (lowest calories). keep my fingers crossed for dinner.. alright time's up, workout time! i feel so good!
That's a great positive attitude to have! I'm happy your plan is working for you! Congrats on your exercise and intake! It's terrifying to hear that certain salads can be 1,300 calories, that's insane! I'm glad I despise all types of dressing. You're doing amazing, it's truly thinspirational. (:
ReplyDeleteawh thank you! =) i really appreciate your thoughts and kind words!
ReplyDeletei know, the salad thing scares me - we're both lucky we don't like dressing anyway, so we're not missing anything =)
