I had this epiphany before I left work yesterday that I didn't have to order a steak at the Outback. (Doh!) After going out to lunch I just didn't want to consume that much food and that many calories. I ended up having an Ahi Tuna appetizer as my entree (yum!) a small Caesar salad, half a sweet potato and a piece of bread. It worked out well and I ended up with a nice deficit. I updated my goals for July. I am still aiming for 6,500 steps per day. I want to get to the gym a minimum of 2x per week and get 64oz of water in daily. No excuses! Tonight I am getting a pedicure (Yay for happy toes!) and tomorrow I plan on FINALLY getting the tour of the new gym. Until next time...
Good choices in a complex and ever-changing world.
ReplyDeleteIt still can be SIMPLE even when it's not EASY.
Great idea on ordering the appetizer for dinner - funny, I did that yesterday for lunch, and my dining companion was all "that's all you're getting?" - but I was satisfied, and best of all, wasn't stuffed by the end of the meal.
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you, it's baby steps all the way to the goal!
Good for you! I don't think I could do that at the Outback, lol.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your pedi!
Oooo! What color did you paint the toes?
ReplyDeleteOne step at a time does wonders. It really does. Sounds like you did great at Outback.
Pink!!! :-) Pink is not just a color it's an attitude!
ReplyDeleteI love love love Ahi so it worked out great!
Way to hang in there!
