WEIGH-IN: 224.4
AM
Good Morning Everyone!
Other than my back being a little stiff and sore, I feel great! I had some trouble sleeping again last night, but I think I'll be ok :)
(4:30pm) Today has been a pretty good day so far! I went to the gym for about 2 hours, came home to get a few things done, and I'm going to be heading to a cook-out soon. Since changing my caloric intake to 1,800 I've noticed it's been a lot more difficult to eat all my calories. I have packed a lot of good, healthy choices for the party, but I feel like I may be eating too much! We will see how it goes. - maybe even decreasing my caloric intake to 1,700 will be better.
I have my first challenge tonight....I will be attending a cookout/birthday party. I've talked to the host ahead of time and made sure it was ok that I bring my own food. I have planned ahead and will prepare before I head to the party. Although there will be alcohol there, I have already made the decision to avoid it completely. I decided to have a yogurt and some almonds before going to the party because I am not sure what time we are eating. I will keep you posted as to how I do!
PM
I got home a little late and was very tired, so I'm writing this on the morning after!
I had a great time last night! I got to see some people I hadn't seen in a while. I even played some basketball and Just Dance on the Wii. I brought my own food just as I had planned and didn't eat anything that was at the BBQ....although it DID look delicious!
I would have to say that the trickiest part of the party was watching almost everyone there drink or people asking me why I wasn't drinking. I was offered a drink a few times, but I knew that if I didn't keep the promise to myself I would be extremely disapointed which would make me very upset and therefore lead to me making unhealthy food choices because I felt bad. I played beer pong last night as well. It was Samara and I against Kristen and Steph. I agreed to play as long as I didn't have to drink any beer, so we ended up playing with water in the cups and the girls had their own drinks. It worked out well! I left that party last night and felt so good and so accomplished!!!!
