So it was the day after my “weigh-in” that yielded the minus 10+ pounds result. I was very busy all day and somehow did not manage to eat planned, sensible meals. I grabbed a bite here and a bite there and at 3:30pm, remembered that I had not eaten lunch and I had to leave at 6:30. I ate a WW approved 4 point lunch: sardines, Schmidt’s bread (1 slice), vinegar and a handful of luscious cherries. Plus a hardboiled egg with a dab of light mayo…
Never got around to eating “dinner”. We usually have snacks at MUTS, so I didn’t give it another thought…until around 8:30, when my tummy started rumbling. Other tables were getting snacks, but apparently, no one had pre-ordered any for our table…a problem, because on Wednesday, the Windlass is closed and only pre-ordered food is available. I rummaged in my purse and found a 2 point WW nut bar, about 2 inches long. That didn’t do much, but I survived. When I got home at close to 10:00pm, I was ravenous and ate mostly good stuff, but not all. I went into my bonus points, not my intention this early in the week. The moral of the story: plan ahead and eat before you go out! I have 5 days to correct the damage, I believe I can.
By the way, the steel drum player last night was fabulous. He even gave us a short explanation about how the steel drums are created and tuned. I love it when I am entertained and learn something interesting, too.
The Steel Druns were wonderful and I’m so glad I was able to wave hi to you.
Onto the food… the lifetime struggle is real. I always have great intentions and I pack meals for work every day but here I am 2 in the afternoon I’ve eaten breakfast lunch and dinner already!!
Suggestion – Drink drink drink….water that is. Most of the time when we are hungry we are actually really just thirsty. Or your hunger pain will subside after you drink a glass of water. U have not drank enough water today.
Suggestion number two – walk walk walk.
Move it to lose it
