Here goes.....

I don't even know if anyone will (ever) read this, but here goes.  I'll fill in the details (about myself, my history, my goals...) sometime soon for anyone who doesn't know my, but for now, I'm using this blog as my accountability to myself...and whoever else eventually reads it.  Accountability for my food, fasts (intermittent fasting...Google it), and workouts.

I'll start with yesterday.  I normally do @ 16-hour fasts, but I taught BodyAttack at 7:30am so I had to eat a pre-workout meal (whole grain English muffing w/natural peanut butter & honey and whey protein).  When I got home, Steve was about to leave to go teach BodyPump at 9:30am so I'm like "Eh, let me go change shirts and I'll go with ya."  Ate a banana before we left I think.  When we got home I had some Greek yogurt w/berries @ 11am.  Steve and I had to go 80's-attire shopping for launch(yay!)and ended up going to this new burger joint called Teddy's Burgers...neat place but the food was not great, compared to the price especially.  And they were out of pickles.  And onion rings.  Really?  Anyways, we had chips and queso, and I had a grilled tenderloin sandwich on wheat and a side salad with honey mustard.  Not horrible, but then I got dessert.  Chocolate chip cookie sundae.  It looked a lot bigger than it actually was because of all the whipped cream, and I didn't eat all the ice cream either, but still the cookie alone was probably 400+ calories.  So I pretty much felt like poo after allowing myself to eat that.  I find excuses for dessert all the time.  My downfall.  So, I ended up going to BodyStep at 5:30pm because I figured I probably better after the cookie sundae, and it was good, but omg was I pooped by the end of the night.  Steve grilled pork chops and corn & steamed veggies.  So my supper only ended up being probably @ 400 calories (maybe less), so that was good.  But (always a but) I still had a bowl of Reese's Puffs at 9pm (DAMN that cereal for being so good!)  But I started my fast and went until after Noon today, so that's 15 hours.  Back on track.

Today....fasted until sometime after noon.  For lunch had roast beef & Colby/pepperjack cheese on a low carb tortilla with honey mustard and some natural tortilla chips & sweet onion salsa, and a pear.  Guess what tho...shortly after, I had some more Reese puffs.  I figure at least they aren't made with flour and they aren't horrible in calories, so if it's the only "sweet" I have in a day, I won't beat myself up over it (like the cookie sundae yesterday!).  Had a banana & whey protein for pre-workout snack before teaching 5:30pm BodyPump, and stayed for the first 4 tracks of BodyAttack.  My quads and ankle weren't allowing me to stay longer!  For dinner I had my fave quick salmon (Trident Thai Chili microwave salmon) with brown & wild rice.  It's 8:15pm now so I'm about to start my fast until 1pm tomorrow, and I'm only at about 1300 calories or so for the day so I'm still contemplating more Reese's Puffs.  I'm going with no for now.  I'll let you know tomorrow!
