Day 7

It's been almost a full week since I started the Game On diet. I do feel more satisfied eating smaller meals now that my stomach has adjusted to the portions. I find myself making healthy choices and not being as tempted by bad foods. My body feels good without chemicals; this clean eating thing isn't so bad!

I walked into work and there was a birthday celebration today complete with cake. I remember the Game On book specifically saying, "You don't have to be the person at the party who can't have the cake. Just have a little of it." So I had the cake: breakfast of champions (just kidding, I really had a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, this was my breakfast's dessert). My 100 (ish) calories of whatever was officially gone the first half hour of my work day.


 Here is what I just finished for dinner:

 

 

The pineapples were considered my carbs, sadly. I think I cheated a little because I put a dash of brown sugar in the pineapple juice. It was light brown sugar, for the record. Hey, a week ago I would have been making a whole marinade to soak it in...

 

On a sidenote, I worked another football game tonight against the school district I used to work for. I saw two former students on the field because they are in middle school now! They recognized me and it was so neat to see them :) They kicked our butts.

 

Wish me luck on my weigh-in tomorrow morning. I'm really nervous. I may have put on pounds from stressing about what I am eating constantly and worrying about all this being for nothing. Is this normal? I feel like next week I'll have the hang of it and not stress so much. Cross your fingers- I'll let you know if I lost anything...:/
