Today’s diet

3

Well, no weight loss yet, but that doesn’t really surprise me. After all, I’m really working on exercising, so my trainer has warned me that the initial change may not come on the scale. I do, however, have a pair of pants picked out to use as a measure of progress. I’m hoping planning (words are very important when you’re trying to lose weight– there’s a big difference between “hoping” and “planning”) to fit into them by August. It’s totally a reasonable goal. I can put them on and zip them now, but I would never wear them out of the house. It would be great if they were big by August.

So, anyway, here’s today’s progress.

breakfast: plain yogurt with a handful of blueberries and a sprinkling of granola with dried cranberries and pecans

lunch: One of the leftover meals from our brief stab at NutriSystem (the foods not horrible, but way too chemically laden for me)– This one was parmesan broccoli noodles. Also, had some of the leftover coleslaw from last night.

dinner: chile relleno casserole w/zucchini and corn added in; zucchini and tomatoes with parmesan and basil

evening snack: half a peanut butter sandwich

exercise: working out with trainer tonight, so that will be about 15 minutes of aerobics combined with an hour of weights

    I should plan on fitting into my thinner clothes too. How about this for a plan. I plan on fitting into the clothes that I wore when we met (8 years ago), by October. Does that sound like a reasonable goal?

  2. BTW – Those nutrisystem meals aren’t all that tasty either. I prefer your cooking WAY more than those meals.

    I really wouldn’t want you to lose that much weight, and I’m not sure it would be realistic by October.
