Week 3 Check In

I feel like I accomplished a lot this week! I was faced with many challenges and over came them with great pride! Did I mention I lost 2 pounds?

Food:
My snacking has been much better. My snacks usually include sauteed squash or zucchini, or an apple with string cheese, or a banana. I won't lie though, I still have a few animal crackers with Tristan. I faced eating out 4 times this week, and I feel like I won each time. I first hit up Mcdonalds because I was out and didn't bring any snacks. I only got a grilled chicken snack wrap to hold me over til dinner. I for sure could have gotten a big mac!  But I resisted. We went out for hubby's actual birthday on Thursday to TGIFridays. I had a whole wheat pasta with veggies dish and a salad. We had a birthday family celebration at a Mexican food place on Friday night. I had fajitas with out the tortillas and rice. Plus I only had ONE sopapilla! This is a huge accomplishment for me. Saturday morning we went out to breakfast and I had an egg while omelette. It was delicious! So I proud to say I took control over my food this week. I just hope I can continue.

The one thing that I LOVE LOVE LOVE about these shakes is that I have almost completely LOST all my cravings and urges for food. I am finally at a point where I am fueling my body, not falling into temptation of what sounds good at the moment. This is something I have struggled with all my life. I can go through the grocery store and get what is only on my list and not feel like I have to grab everything on the shelves that looks good (but is sooo bad.) It's a beautiful thing.

Working Out:
We had one great work out this week at the rec, and I got out and walked twice. I feel like I can do better though. I am hoping this week we can hit the rec twice. It's supposed to snow though, so I don't know how much walking I will get in. Maybe I will hit up Flatirons mall again.
