I had a salad today. Something I haven't had in months. It tasted nummy! Day 3 proved to be another successful day.....granted it isn't over quite yet, and my danger zone hours are in full swing. However, I still have over 300 calories to consume (if I so choose) so I'm thinking I'll be OK.
Today was such a success that I even had room for an ice cream following dinner tonight (and yes, I STILL have 300 calories to go)!
Actually I thought today was going to be a bust right from the get-go. I had a calorie heavy breakfast (and it wasn't even that heavy, it was just heavier than my past 2 days). Immediately, I considered today a bust. I proceeded to make 2 loaves of banana bread in which I always put some chocolate chips. Because I considered today a bust, I thought about just taking some handfuls of those chocolate chips, but I resisted. I have no clue what prevented me from indulging, but I didn't even eat just one.
Then I went to the grocery store where I came across some single serving sized ice cream deliciousness each having around 180-200 calories a piece. Yes, I got some. I got some in hopes of using the single serving sizes to help with my portion control, and if I record it on my phone app, then its all good. I can have it, I just need to record it.
So today I had my ice cream and ate it too! I was within my calorie goal for today AND indulged in some ice cream. It isn't easy, but it is do-able.
