Yesterday I ate a little much. I went over to a friends house to watch TrueBlood and he cooked dinner. It wasn't bad, chicken breast w sauteed veggies and plantain and guac. But I had a little too much plantain and we had wine. I also may have had some M&Ms :( All while not working out bc of Tropical Storm Debbie, it was pouring all day so I couldn't will myself to do anything all day. I napped all day pretty much. But new week this week. And it seems like every week I am getting better and I am keeping up with my workouts. 4x's last week. This week I'm pushing for 5.
So This week I am GOING to stay within my calorie limits. ALL WEEK! Although I do feel myself getting slimmer and I have lost some inches. I think I am gaining muscle which is why my weight isn't going down as fast as I want it to. But, I want to look lean and muscular, not just skinny so this is something I'm just going to have to deal with.
Also, I've been reading this book called Eat To Live. I've heard about it before but my work mom gave it to me so I can actually read it. I'm enjoying it. He makes some pretty valid arguements to pursue a plant based diet. I think I am going to incorporate a little of that into what I do. I don't think I can go completely vegetarian but I eat eat plenty of veggies as it is so why not just go a little further w it? I'm not going to try it until I read the whole thing but I did up my veggies when I went to the grocery store yesterday. Also to eat mainly plants and beans is cheaper than eating a lot of meat, which is def a bonus :)
Well, that about does it for me. Hope everyone has a great day :)

I read Eat to Live a few months ago. He has really valid arguments. One way I try to incorporate his advice is to make myself a fresh spinach, kale, and blueberry smoothie every day. I drink my salad, LOL!
