First of all, I wish I could share pictures!!!! I had a whole wheat English muffin, a slice of sharp cheddar cheese, egg white, sandwich for breakfast this morning. I also added a couple slices of tomato, and a small handful of salad greens. Yum! Sure beats mcdonalds any day! :) oh yeah I also made some turkey sausage links on the side. 2 is one serving for 90 cals and about 300ish g of sodium. No carbs, low in fat. (Jennie-o?) it was a really good breakfast. I didn't add any salt to my eggs. Actually I haven't really touched salt since I got here. I don't need it. Everything else seems to have enough of it for the entire meal. :) just got to remember to drink my water and enough of it every day! I try to start my day out by drinking two glasses of water. Ok I also made the same thing for my mom. She really liked it. :) and agreed that it was filling. I estimated about 350 calories for the entire meal. So good!!! I love the nutrition facts!
Ok second, I weighed myself this morning (even though I know I shouldn't have) and seemed to have lost a pound this week. It just feels nice knowing I'm still losing even though im eating different foods than before and even though my exercise routine is different as well. :) i am still prepared for no losses though but if I lose than that's just a bonus for me! I'm in this for life and just because I'm not losing much at the moment doesn't mean I'm going to stop exercising and stop eating right. So far I have been making my own meals and I'm ok with that! :) I love my moms food though but ever since coming here I've realized just how strong I really am. I did have a bean burrito with cheese for lunch the other day though but with a whole wheat tortilla, and low fat cheese. That was my lunch for the day. I had fruit as a snack a little later.
I have noticed my parents dont really eat vegetables all that much with their meals. My dad had steak and beans and Mexican rice for dinner just last night. No veggies. I don't think beans counts as a veggie does it? I'm going to have to try to add veggies to their meals even if just steamed from a bag. :) btw I wasn't here last night during their dinner. I was at the gym doing two classes. It's so funny. I'm quite used to doing two classes in one day and everyone at the gym was like "you are doing this one too?" I was like "sure why not?" ;) it's fun! I'm glad I had an apple in my bag. I was quite hungry after both classes. I was going to pack some nuts in my bag but was in a hurry. I'm thinking something in between classes would be great.
Also, another funny thing I came across last night....I googled something because I was curious. Well, I had no idea that non romantic "girl crushes" are real. It sort of explains why I feel the way that I do after leaving a few great people behind. Hmmm... Strange feeling it is. lol that's never happened to me before. Needless to say, I miss a certain someone. A couple people the most really. I'm glad we have Internet to stay in touch though. I think a great friendship could have blossomed after some time. But oh well that's life I guess. I hope I feel the same way about other people later on in my life. I could use a best girl friend. :)
Ok enough thoughts for this morning. My legs are sore! lol I still want to do spinning this evening though. :)
