I am so proud of myself! Yesterday, I decided to make myself a homemade pizza to eat during superbowl. I had a pre-made crust that was organic and whole grain. I got it from my local natural food store. I spread a little olive oil over the crust, then spread a combination of sugar free spagetti sauce and tomatoe paste over that. Then...I dug out stuff from my fridge, like fresh SPINACH...YES, the dream worked! LOL I also added a slight amount of almond jalapeno cheese, fresh mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, a bit of chopped garlic, and some chicken slices, followed by a light dusting of parmeasan cheese. I couldn't beleive how good it was! I munched on it here and there throughout the game. I still have part of it left for lunch today. I also had a couple of drinks before I ate, sugar free, alcoholic. Just my 18 month old daughter and I were home to watch the game and we had fun! Of course she kept looking at me when I was yelling, cheering, and clapping, like I was suddenly a crazy woman...but she still had fun. lol AND, the BEST PART is that I didn't feel deprived, I looked forward to my pizza, and didn't gain a pound! I also drank water throughout the day. At one point in time, I told myself "This is what changing your lifestyle is about...and it ain't that bad!" OH! I also went to the gym first thing yesterday morning. I was getting excited while working out cuz they had big tv's on the wall, in front of the exercise bike, with pre-superbowl show stuff. Very fun day, I'd say. I also got a nice big pot of soup made for the week and a nice SPINACH salad made up ahead of time! Yep, that dream again! LOL Here's to a happy Monday! Go Porches!
