Mid Week Check-In

Man, am I struggling today.  I can't get enough to eat!!  I think that the amount of food I am bringing with me during the day is just not enough.  I start to falter in my dedication when I get really hungry that's for sure.  All day long, I've thought about food I could get on the way home or from the vending machine....all of it unhealthy.  I survived without doing either of those things, but am still having a hard time filling up.  I brought snacks, ate lots of protein, and still it was rough.  I am wondering if I need to start eating more substantial snacks than a cheese stick and cherry tomatoes (my morning and afternoon snacks).  Any snacks that keep you full??  

Anyway, I am still doing really well for the week.  I worked out twice yesterday (regular workout in the morning and Zumba last night), so today is a rest day.  I'm going to try and do some yoga or stretching later so I don't get sore. 

Hope your week is going well.  Give up anything crazy for Lent??

  1. Have you tried some greek yogurt? It's so filling to me that it really helps. Maybe almonds with the cheese stick and tomato? Do you have capability to make smoothies?

  2. I will try greek yogurt--haven't had any in a while! I've tried nuts, but I feel like I want to eat a cup full to get satisfied!

    I just need stuff that I could bring...I suppose I could work out a way to pre-make a smoothie!
