Holiday Hoedown Check in Week 3

Holiday Hoedown Challenge

Good morning ladies and gents!! (Are there any gents that read my blog?  Besides one handsome mutant of course.) Its check-in time over at the Sisterhood.

Check.

I'm done right?

Crap.

So I gained weight.  Again.  This is getting really old.  Although I have no doubt what caused  it.  The biscuits and gravy 2 mornings in a row at Fall Creek Falls State Park.  The absence of a long run do to my weekend with the family.  The chimichanga, cheese sauce, refried beans, and coke Monday night went no where but my thighs and rear.

What is new?  Yesterday I actively did something to change my behavior.

We'll skip over the brownie and the diet dr.k with dinner m'kay?  I had a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, a granola bar for morning snack, a bowl of chili (w/cheese and sour cream) for lunch, and a plate of stir fry for dinner. 

Notice what's absent there?  Fast food.  Crap that my body doesn't need.  Okay technically it didn't need the brownie but it was a small portion and I was hungry and wanted something sweet. 

Yesterday is how I imagined my eating moderately would be.  Mostly nutritious food with a few yummies add in.

Let's go for day 2 of that behavior - what'd ya say?

    Good for you for taking the bull by the horns and kicking the fast food.

    Also, I want to punch you for talking about food.

    Love!

  2. You had to go and mention biscuits and gravy...now I'm drooling. ;)

    Cheers for saying peace out to fast food! It can be a rough one to kick. Quick, easy, CHEAP...why does eating healthy cost so frackin' much?

  4. I'm sorry you had a bit of a 'blip.' I had my breakfast this morning, and then just a bit ago, had a chocolate glazed doughnut. This, after having 3 doughnuts yesterday! So know how you feel!!

  5. It's tough to stay on track this time of year. You're doing a good job of refocusing, though, and that's what counts!

  7. I'm with Misti -- I think one of the reasons we heart fast food so much is that it's cheap and fast!!
