Today was harder than expected as apparently I am used to eating incredible amounts of food.

Breakfast:
Coffee w/sugar free Pumpkin Spice creamer
Banana
Apple
Strawberry Chobani
Lunch:

Dinner:
Sauteed onions, garlic and zuchini w/cup of brown rice and 1/2 lb terriyaki salmon (see pic)

Work Out:

BodyFlow- The instructor changed the class and it was taught by two people! Weird and annoyingly distracting. But it was faster than usual so I most likely burned more calories than usually.

The only downfall was today when somebody brought us danishes! I had 2 bites (urghhh no self control). Onward!

Oh. Hey.

Over the past couple of months, I have been logging my food on the WW app to no avail. Working out 3 nights a week has toned up my stomach but the past month of holidays has changed that. I went from a 153 with a flattish stomach in a zipped size 8 to what feels like a whale with a humongo blob belly at 156.5! So I am back to maintaining this blog! I will be eating healthy and logging my workouts here from now on!

So back by popular demand:

Monday (PRE DIET):
Coffee and Creamer- trying to cut back on the creamer its a very unhealthy habit!
Chocolate Popems ( in a meeting - working in the healthcare industry is ridiculous with the doughtnuts!!!)

1 bowl of yellow split pea soup
Dinner at Mocha Bleu:
