I decided to track my calories today because I am not sure if I am eating enough. I was only at 1,050 at 2:30 so I ate a Lara bar on my way to the office. Funny thing is I feel full after my meals and am snacking but I couldn't believe how little calories I had consumed. Vegetables don't add up at all! I was told by Ben, our crossfit coach that I should be at about 1,600 on a normal day and eat a little extra on days I work out to keep a healthy metabolism and not put my body into starvation mode. Well, I worked out today and only hit 1,550 after dinner. I should have had an extra 350 calories to fuel my work out. Something to work on for tomorrow I guess.
I did another round of grocery shopping. I still have some food left over from last time. I really only had to stock up on meat and grab some snacks like fruit, nuts, almond butter, Lara bars and some veggies for this week. I spent just under $100 .
Shopping with a list and a meal plan is so much easier and stress free. It is twice as face. I will forever meal plan from now on!
I made zucchini "spaghetti" and meat balls for dinner. It was ok. A little blah. It needed more seasonings.
This time last year I always listened to Dave Ramsey's podcasts while I made dinner. I missed it. So I renewed my subscription. I love listening to him and it helps give me that little extra boost I'll need to be debt free in the next few months. It gets me excited while I'm in the kitchen!
As for tomorrow I have the day off. I'm headed to crossfit in the morning then I get to see my favorite guy and hope that he has a fix solution for a strained thumb/wrist that has been an issue for almost a month! I am feeling so good on this whole 30 diet! Can't wait to see more changes.
