Day 2

Today, I woke up feeling great, even though I could have slept more! I begrudgingly got out of bed and got ready for the day! I had another day eating well and went to the store and bought a lot of vegetables. Thanks Ashley for the suggestions! I will be using them and I bought sweet potato sticks from Trader Joe's to make baked fries with!

I have learned something very important this week, and that is I can only plan on doing things after 8 pm to give me enough time to get to the gym and then clean up after. My work schedule should be changing soon and then I can work from 8-5 or 7-4 and that will ease this problem of conflicting times with working out at the gym versus at home. My home workout tonight was less than spectacular! So I am working on improving my system!

I love recording everything I eat because it makes me so careful and think twice about what I am recording and my desire for perfection everyday in nutrition is increased. For example, tonight I discovered once again, that by 7 pm, I had only had one veg. serving. So I pulled out my vegetable platter from the store and preceded to eat from the five different sections to meet my serving recommendations! So I ended the day with 6 small servings of vegetables (still counts) and 5 servings of fruit! What else can you eat when you have ruled out sweets and junk food from your eating! Yeah for good health! I just looked at the time! Its time to get ready for bed! Hope your day went well! :)
