I feel pretty good other than being dog tired and ready for bed again. My sinuses and ears hurt and I've got a sore throat. I didn't get through much of my workout before going to take a nap. ugh.
BUT~ My coat wasn't as tight around my hips this morning. It was enough that I really noticed. REALLY noticed! I haven't worn it in a week or so... It has always been fairly snug at the hips (whoever designs women's Carhart coats is an idiot) I didn't measure, because measure and weigh day is on Friday~
I honestly just cant figure it out. I was eating over 2000 calories a day in fat and protein and veggies, and since I've cut back on the fat, and added more veggies and some moderate fruit, I'm no where near even hitting the 1900 calorie top I've set for myself. I'm SATISFIED. I'm less hungry than I was while eating all that fat, and almost no carbs. Apparently my body likes to have more carbs than It was getting. I can already feel the difference in a few days of eating this way. Lots of veggies, proteins, some nuts and a bit of dairy. NOM! I feel good. I'm not starving constantly. I'm apparently shrinking too... =)
Now, we'll see how hubby feels about the dinner I made =) Its ground turkey, canned diced tomatoes, zucchini chunked up, black olives hand crushed, some chopped red peppers and 'pizza seasoning'. I added a touch of shredded mozzarella cheese and sour cream to my plate. and fresh red peppers for some crunchy yum.
Tomorrow was going to be ground pork, red cabbage, apples and some yukon gold potatoes on the side, but my son asked for Chicken and Dumplings. So I'll have to make two pots of that, a small one for me with no dumplings, and a big one for everyone else =) I'm ok with that. I'll just put sweet potato and carrots and celery in mine... well they get celery too... I can do eggs...
and now I'm just rambling.
I'm ready to curl up and go back to bed.
