DU: Day 4- December 6

Laid around a lot today but was still productive- my favorite kind of day!! I did some laundry, thought about cleaning my room, completed my last lab hour, and did lots of studying.. which drains me! Feeling prepared for my exams coming up!! 2 tomorrow then 3 next week! Bring em on- I cannot wait to be finished & start a new semester!!

Food today was actually pretty great! Started the day with a Southwest Salad (greens topped with carrots, corn relish, grilled chicken with a kick, and fat free honey mustard) which was delish!! Then had some phenomenal french toast for dinner! So filling and satisfying taste wise!! And.. topped it off with a chips/cheese dip run with the roommate, which I felt guilty about because I have a hard time controlling myself with Mexican, but it fit into the calories so I went with it. Thinking I may should stray from Mexican in the future until I can control myself & make smart choices!

Kath Eats Real Food, a new blog find, has really got me craving yummy yet healthy foods! Especially french toast (as you can tell by my dinner choice)... Can hardly wait to get home for Christmas Break to cook some half as fabulous as hers...

and to whip these up in a normal sized, not college kitchen... -My mouth is watering at the thought.-

and of course to snuggle this little nugget. When I am in town, Marley sleeps in my bed... world's best snuggle bunny!! I miss her so much when I'm in starkville!

WI: The scale said 146.8 this morning- which I'm okay with! A little up from Tuesday's weigh in, but still not as high as it has been! Especially good after such an indulgent day yesterday! But really looking forward to seeing some loss soon! Hopefully the 1,400 cal/30 g fat for the next 4 days will help!!

Typed this out then weighed on a different scale which told me 144.8! Even after moving the scale & trying again! Whaaat? Love it. I hope 146.8 was a fluke!!

By the Numbers: 

Ended today mostly on track with what I was wanting, but slightly over with fat- need to get back in a healthy routine with less eating out without abandon:

Calories              1,235

Fat                      45

Carbohydrates    116

Protein                57

Yes! An almost great day feels good!... Bring on some more!
