Today my attitude was so much better and I feel better. It's amazing what a full night's sleep will do for you, and I attribute that to finally being back on Thrive long enough for my metabolism to be running the way it should be again.
Today's menu:
- Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, sauteed mushrooms and spinach and fat free cheese rolled up on a La Banderita Xtreme Fiber tortilla
- Lunch: Applebees - sirloin with sauteed mushrooms and onions and steamed veggies
- Dinner: Baked chicken sprinkled with Mrs. Dash Chipotle Pepper Seasoning and steamed veggies (from a steamer bag you get in the freezer section). I'm tossing around the idea of adding a 1/2 cup of whole wheat pasta and some Parmesan cheese and some hot sauce (I love the stuff) to it
- Snack: Power Crunch Bar
On a side note: my joints haven't hurt in 2 days. I've beens sitting in a classroom for those 2 days and that's incredible! I would think it was the weather, but yesterday it rained cats and dogs (or dawgs as they say here in Georgia) and today it's dry and cold. You would think that would make me hurt more, but I've been pain free. I don't want to jinx it, but I'm starting to wonder if maybe this clean eating is helping with joint inflamation. I'm definitely going to keep that in the back of my tiny little mind. I would love to say it's the weight loss, but I've only lost a total of 1 3/4 pounds so far. Heck, I may get back to my Turbo Fire workouts, Insanity workouts and sparring in karate sooner than I thought, which will make the weight come off that much faster!
