Food Report
Well, not an awful day, but not a complete success either.
B-waffles w/light syrup and a mango
L-mariinated chicken breast, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies
S-handful of chocolate chips, pear
D-2 tacos, rice, beans, some chips
Reflections of the food today: My goal is to be trigger free. No chips, no candy, no cereal. During lunch, everyone else was eating chips (2 kinds) and I didn't have any.

That was really hard! I really wanted some.
I kept saying things to myself like, I can't seem to have only 1 serving, so I choose to have none. It's easier to stay on than to get on plan (

), and This will get easier.
We had nothing in the house for dinner. I mean nothing to cook. And it's so hard to get take out with our gluten free restrictions. So my husband went to get take out Mexican food.
I did have chips, but I did not overdo it. But I still wish I hadn't had them.
I was so full from dinner, that I'm not having any dessert tonight. So that's good. But I wish I had scaled back my portions at dinner.
I am thinking of logging again. I just don't want to get obsessed. But I figure, if I find I can't handle it again, I'll just go back to the way I'm doing it now. I'm still thinking. Not sure.
Exercise Report
I hurt my back today.

So during the kids' nap, I could not workout. I was in a lot of pain. Luckily, by tonight the tylenol finally kicked in. So at 9:45pm after Collin went upstairs for bed, I did a Leslie Sansone video-Walk and Jog. Not the greatest for calorie burn, but it was something and I'm glad I did it. Especially after the Mexican food dinner.
I really want to get more cardio in each day, but it's really hard without cardio equipment at home.
Joy Report
After church today, we went to the indoor community pool and had so much fun. The kids were so worn out by the time we were done

. They both just love water.
Grattitude Report
I am finding my way through all this food issue crap. It's so tough, but I'm wading my way through. I am grateful for my determination and for the people who are supporting me through this process.

I'm so sorry you hurt your back!!!!! Ouch! WTG not having any chips at lunch! Do you think it was easier to have none than to have one serving? That's what I usually find.
