I'm really happy with today! Content with both food and exercise - feeling physically and emotionally great! Ate quite a lot, but all good food, and when I added up the KJ amounts, was pleasantly surprised!! And the scales proved it - just 56.6kg today!! I tend to fluctuate quite a bit, but hoping to spend the rest of the week under 57 if i can - and if I succeed, rewarding myself with new winter boots! Very excited!
Today's Food:
All-bran with light soy milk
3 cups green tea
Banana
Mandarin
Kiwi Fruit
Red Lentil and Tomato soup (quite a large bowl today! I will get around to posting some recipes too!)
2 cups black tea with light soy milk
1 cup chai tea with soy milk
Carrot and celery sticks with yesterday's leftover hummus
Handful of almonds
Steamed pumpkin, sweet potato and zucchini in a little bit of rice-bran oil w/ salt & pepper
Air-popped popcorn
Handful of goji berries
Works out to be just over 5500kj, or 1375cal
Exercise:
45 minutes at the gym - mostly cardio, about 250cal / 1000kj
I was supposed to have a fitness group with some friends today - but it was canceled (slackers!!) So I resisted the urge to laze around at home, and took the advantage of already having my gym clothes with me and went straight to the gym after work! Felt so much more energetic afterwards, and had a great night, so happy with my decision!
I have a day off tomorrow, so might get around to adding in some recipes, and I'm hoping to get out grocery shopping for some new ingredients to experiment with! Plenty of time for exercise, and praying that I won't get over confident when out with friends tomorrow night and stick to good eating!!
