Day 30 last day clean eating (tues)

Day 30!
 
I made it to day 30! Not like I was an angel though, I cheated a handful of times, nibble her nibble there, but it does add up. I didn't feel all that good about the cheats but I'm OK over all with the past 30 days. So my last day went good I managed to do the whole day clean.
I did Jillian's DVD today was another killer workout! That is # 2 workout for this week :)
Things I learned the past month:
1. I'm very Moody when it comes to food
2. I know how to say NO
3. I like feeling good about myself and my accomplishments
4. I can do anything I put my mind to
5. I will put me first because without that I'm no good to others
6. I love how good foods give me have energy
7. I hate how bad foods make my tummy feel bloated and sick
8. Funny but I enjoy having regular BM's lol
9. I love that I can eat lots and lose weight
10. I'm worth being happy!
 
Here is some inspiration:

Day 29 Clean eating (mon)

Day 29
 
What a day this has been!
In the A.M. every weekday I get kids up and going for school, come home get brother up and going with his stuff, then do this and that before you know it I haven't eaten or exercised! I always put myself last, well not today my friends!
I took kids to school, quickly took care of brothers needs, talked to my councilor and I looked at the clock and dang the a.m. was almost over, I could have walked away and said no time, but I didn't!
I had some issues getting things started but I managed to squeeze in a good workout. I started a DVD from Jillian and dang I was sweaty and sore on my first  workout lol.
I was proud of myself that I didn't make excuses, I buckled down and did it and after I did I felt awesome, sore but awesome non the less!
So the comes the eating equation of this day. I can say it was another daunting day, I hate when my brain starts slipping into old habits. I've made a conscious decision to change this and everyday I make progress. Today was hard because I just didn't feel like eating healthy, but I did. I didn't feel like exercising, but I did. Its all a journey to self.
So here is what was on my menu for today:
Breakfast:
protein drink made w/rice milk
Lunch:
chicken
salad
Dinner:
 
no this wasn't to clean but had only a few bites of it:
(got take out to bring home)
chicken,Cole slaw, baked beans, biscuit, mashed potato
 
So the night was a bust of sorts but not feeling all to bad I only had a few bites and I found out something, good food taste better when its fresh and not processed!
 
Here is my verse for today because I DO love myself :)

Day 27 & 28 clean eating (weekend)

Day 27 & 28
 
The weekend is here and with it many choices to be good or just cave in, well this weekend I had a few challenges.
Its seems to me that the closer  get to the end of this the more I want to be defiant. I'm not sure why but I'm sure there is some psychoanalytical reason why? I just haven't found this out yet or else I wouldn't have a weight issue.
So sat I stayed OK until lunch I ended going out with family, good intentions, yeah right, the moment I stepped foot in a Mexican place and smelled all the smells I wanted to eat!
I made it through the rest with nibbles of bad here and there. This being my last weekend I kind of, in a weird way, gave myself permission to cheat. I was explaining it away in my head to justify this nibble that nibble. In the end I just know this demon is a big one and no matter how you think you are going to conquer it, it always comes back and gets yeah! This is by far a mental illness problem, why else would someone talk them selves out of eating? Eating has become a social thing and its hard not to gather and socialize over yummy foods. There is no way around food, we need it to live, to survive. Now to learn to eat to live not live to eat!
 
So with that said here is my weekends menu:
Sat day 27
Breakfast:
skipped
Lunch:
1/4th of burrito was hard on tummy :(
chips and salsa w/avocado
Dr. pepper
Dinner:
1/4th left over again my stomach turned and I wouldn't eat it
weird right! Tells me my stomach now has limits
Snack:
nuts
Sun day 28
Breakfast:
protein drink made w/rice milk
lunch:
chicken
salad
Dinner:
rice pasta w/ red Turkey sauce
salad
beans
Snack:
Cinnamon roll :( was looking at me hard!
 
Here is a verse for this weekend:
