Bringing sexy back

Ok, so Ive been very busy and on the move. I live in a rural foothill area of CA and all of my family/most friends are either in Sacramento or SF Bay Area so whenever I go to see anyone it is a hike.


I wish I had been doing more literal hikes but Ive been kettlebellin' and running, also yoga and swimming.  I have not been doing great on my grain/sugar free lifestyle but I have been much better the last few days. I can be an emotional and impulsive eater sometimes, but hey- Im pretty impulsive in general.

 I stepped on the scale this morning and I am at 135lbs. This means I have lost a total of 3 pounds mainly through exercise but I had good/bad days as far as eating. I don't really want to measure at this point because I haven't noticed any real inches lost but I will check tomorrow.

I did buy myself a large camelback water bottle and plan on refilling that 3 times daily. I have been making french press Peets coffee in the morning and allowing myself a diet sprite in the afternoon. It is funny because it really is like a treat, with 0 calories so I am phasing them out, but slowly…

It seems like there is sugar following me around, constantly! So I have to admit I have indulged in alcohol and dessert the last couple of weeks. I have eaten ok for the rest of the time. It is in the evening when I want to relax and have a drink I get in trouble so I don't think I can drink even red wine right now until I am at some sort of maintenance phase. ( With the exception of my b day, duh. 7/31.)


Heres what I've been eating the last couple of days:

Breakfast

3 egg whites cooked in olive/coconut oil
chicken sausage
almond/coconut unsweetened milk mix


lunch

Peanut butter ( I have been eating it by the spoonful and I am not sorry about it!)
apple
salad w chicken/fish


dinner

sweet potato
grilled wild salmon with butter& garlic & dill
large salad
grilled veggies


So there you see it lots of yummy food the last couple of days and feeling great, tummy feeling flat-energetic as well.

Sorry Ive been negligent, my fledgling sweet bloggy! I am back but I won't be so rigid about posting my menu and workout schedule. I like having a basic plan but started feeling marred with details and it was seeming daunting all of a sudden.

From now on, I will just report my experiences (journal style still) and post pics/recipes of yummy stuff I make. Of course I will post all of my stats so that you can see the exact results which was the whole point anyway :)

Ok, Now LETS DO THIS.

**don't forget to log all your food in my fitness pal, to make sure your macros are good ( don't have more than 100 carbs in a day).
***dont forget to move.  I used to have one of those jawbone things that tells you if you've been idle too long. It broke. I miss that little vibration that it did. I forget to move sometimes and realize I've been idle for a while, I am going to blame technology for that.
