REGAINING MY BALANCE
Okay so today is Weds. Day 5 with Mr. Pabst and he is adjusting and doing fine. So is mommy. I feel like I am getting back on track with my CR and my life as a whole is coming into balance again.
It's not that I fret or obsess too much about it as a whole, but CR is working for me in obtaining my weight goals and I want to stay on top of that. Something I havent told you all;
I'M GOING TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC FOR VACA ON EASTER!!!
I am so super stoked about going and I want to look and feel good about going to the beach!
So onward;
I have sort of come up with a new plan. Since I am having trouble in the mornings the most, I am from now on going to "skip" breakfast. I had already started doing this pre-Pabst because of just not being hungry. What I did was come to work, have my coffee and around 10:30 am, down my almonds. I think it is decent nutritionally and it really matches my natural hunger craving quite well. Then have a sensible lunch that is prepared the night previously and dinner at home. Possibly a yogurt and nut or seed snack and definitely my calcium chews mid day.
I think this is going to work well for me. I am just going to have to spend at least an hour a night planning the lunch and dinner meals well to make sure I am getting adequate nutrition.
Here is how today looks;
Morning:
2 16 oz black, no sugar coffees
1/3 cup almonds (a little larger than normal, but I waited too late and was famished)
Lunch:
One slice Turkey Meatloaf
Steamed Cabbage
Small Baked Sweet Potato (no salt)
12 oz. can diet coke
Dinner:
1 large serving of Chicken, White Bean, and Tomato Soup (428 calories)
So the totals look like this:
1086 Calories
87 g protein
102 g carbs
40 g fats
88% Vitamins
Slightly low on the B's and folate, so research to follow on how I can up that with dinner.
95% Mineral
Slight low on iron and potassium
So, looking up in the world of CR. I am feeling better about the whole thing.
EXCEPT;
Pabst is driving me crazy at work trying to knock the phone off my desk!!! Just kidding. He is just being playful and sweet!! More pics to come soon!

Hey, A. Don't worry shorty! I am a world class snacker and there are a few things missing, just wanted to outline the basics, but I love that you are a worry wart!
Ah, what I would give for a trip to someplace warm in the not-too-distant future. Good for you, hon!
