Food semi-log 10/28

Yesterday was the FP fourth birthday. She's amazing and precious, and I'm so glad to have her. But yesterday was stressful. She woke up wanting a Sleeping Beauty birthday cake, and I hadn't planned to make her one until small group on Thursday. The Look Alike spilled water into my computer's power strip. I dropped a VHS on my toe and it's bruised and swollen to high heaven. Enter mayhem and foolishness, and the day got away from me. So sorry to slack yet AGAIN, but here's a list of stuff I ate:

cereal and milk (Kashi honey flax and almond) (300)
banana (100)
pasta and sauce (210)
greek yogurt (170)
dried apricots (150)
cake batter and icing (150)
bread (150)
pizza at Chuck E Cheese (700)
store-bought birthday cake (enter my shame) 200

Water:
IIIII IIII

Fruits and Veg:
IIIII (oh now that's just ridiculous)

Exercise: Pilates mat (I was the demonstrator while Pam taught, very cool) (200)

Total Calories: 2030, not nearly as bad as I thought.

I'm back...

And needing to get back on the wagon. Yesterday I was just too exhausted to log my food, but it looked something like this:

shredded wheat and milk
2 eggs
string cheese
tortilla chips/salsa
dried apricots (heaps of them, probably 200 calories worth)
pasta and sauce
broccoli
green smoothie

I'm checking in. On vacation, I gained weight. No surprise there, as the sheer volume of food went beyond ridiculous straight on toward stupid. Never again will I get the deluxe dining plan, never. I thought that since we needed to feed the CCM, that would take care of it, but it was still way too much. I found myself dreading meal times.

Anyhow, so it looks like I gained 3 lbs last week (since Thursday). Possible, but I'm guessing that is due, in part, to sluggish digestion and refined salt. Hopefully it'll even out over the next week and I can get back on the weight loss train!

I have a new goal, and that's to get certified to teach pilates. It's been my goal for some time, but now, because of my stupid job, it looks like it will need to be done sooner rather than later. Totally ok, teaching would be light years more fun. It would be like east to west more fun. That is all. Now I must work on my birthday princess' Sleeping Beauty cake, as it is her precious birthday.

Weekly Check-In

Checking in
Week 1: 149.8 (9/23) 1890 calories on average
Week 2: 146.8 (9/30) 1974 calories on average
Week 3: 146.2 (10/7) 1792 calories on average
Week 4: 145.0 (10/14) 1946 calories on average
Week 5: 145.2 (10/21) 2057 calories on average

Last week I spent the entire week just STARVING! It was so strange. Also, I didn't get to the gym Friday because of the torrential rains, Saturaday because of Elijah House, or Sunday (don't ask about Sunday, I was NOT happy with the Music Man), and I usually burn half a pound during those classes alone (1700-1800 calories).

Tomorrow we leave for Disney World, and I have no idea what their nutrition information is like. I'll be back bext week!
