After my slip yesterday, I’m happy to say I’m back on track. No calzones were ingested (by me) today. However I did enjoy my meals today and I stayed under 1400 calories. It’s amazing to me how much good food you can eat as long as you pay attention to the food content and the portion size. Portion control has always been a problem for me. I find a food I like and I devour as much as possible. I’m really trying to work on my self-control with portion size. I feel that I am doing much better than I ever have.
Today started with my wife cooking an incredible quiche for breakfast. Typically this wouldn’t be the best for dieters to eat, but again, it’s all about portion control.
Breakfast
Quiche (one slice)
Coffee with creamer
Lunch
Ham and turkey sandwich on whole grain bread
Dinner (Texas Roadhouse)
6oz sirloin (smallest they have)
Broccoli
Applesauce
2 Dinner rolls (for any of you that have been to the roadhouse, you know that their rolls are a little slice of heaven. Eating only 2 is a huge feat for me as I usually eat 2 baskets full)
Iced tea
I took advantage of the sunny weather today to go running. I enjoyed being out in the sun and running along the Cherry Creek trail today. It’s normally dark when I run during the week so I stick to the neighborhood, as the trail isn’t lighted. I’m still slow but I ran further today than I have all week. Slowly but surely I’m going to work my way up to the 10k distance.
Speaking of races, I’ve decided to run in a 5k at the end of April as a warm up to the 10k Bolder Boulder. I figure going through a trial run will help me better prepare for the 10k.
Activity
3 mile run
1.5 mile walk
Tomorrow is supposed to be a beautiful day so I’m looking forward to getting outside with the family.
