Good morning. I just went in the kitchen to make my coffee and thought, what are the kids having for dinner? Well, the plan for them is pizza and hot wings. My plan is fish and spinach salad. I am not going to lie to myself and say that I'm going to be happy eating spinach and fish while the smell of pizza and chicken wings is in the air. Yeah, I know... discipline, self control. Right, well that's not going to happen. I'm just being honest. So, my plan is to keep my calories super low all day so that tonight I can have one slice of pizza and two hot wings. Maybe not perfect, but that's my plan.
On another note, I'm thinking of taking the calorie intake down to 1,000. I'm usually between 1200 and 1500, Maybe it's working. I'm not really sure, but I know how stubborn my body is. I just want to make sure I'm getting results, as long as it's safe. So, what do you think? Is 1000 calories a day too low? My fiancé has urged me not to do it. He's afraid that it's not healthy, but I think it's fine.
... I just read online that 1000 calories is too low for my body to continuously burn fat, so maybe 1200. I just want to know how low I can go and still be healthy.

I just want to reflect on how far I've come and what I've learned so far through this process. I think that this time around, I'm more realistic and patient. I know that I'm not going to get the body I want over night, and I've committed to living a healthier life for the rest of my life, rather than dieting temporarily for quick results as I've done in the past. This week, I promised myself that I'd have a "perfect" week. I'm thinking now that maybe that was an unattainable goal. To me, perfect meant that I would eat exactly what was planned, every single day, and do every single workout as scheduled. By yesterday, I realized that maybe that's a ridiculous goal. As much as I want life to go as I plan it, there's always unexpected changes. I have to be able to adapt to those changes, and make good choices, maybe not the meal that I wrote down on my schedule, but still a good choice. Yesterday was tough. It was the first day of my "monthly visit" if you know what I mean. I felt tired and crampy, and bloated, and to tell you the truth, my appetite was in overdrive. I ate a little more than I had planned and I didn't go to Zumba. At first, I thought I had failed, but now I'm saying, so what? I can make up the workout today, and although I ate more than I wanted to, they were all good choices. I think the best thing I've done lately is deciding not to weigh myself. It's not like I'll never weigh myself again, but I was putting too much importance on the scale to gage my success. There is so much more to it. It's about how I feel, and how I look in the mirror. The weight will come off when it's ready. So, today I'm expecting company which means I have a lot of housework to do. Hey, that's exercise too. I'm feeling good this morning. I'm so glad that I have FS. It really helps to be able to keep track of my progress, and very helpful to have the support that I get from my buddies. So, if you're reading this, thank you. It's time to start my day, good luck to you. Onward and upward... :)

So far so good today. I had two eggs, one slice of turkey bacon, and 1/2 a grapefruit for breakfast. I went to the gym and worked weights for about an hour, and then I had an apple and string cheese for a snack. I had a chicken Cantina Bowl from Taco Bell for lunch. It was really good. The only thing I would change is that I should have saved half of it for dinner because I was pretty stuffed when I finished it. It's 5:30pm now and I'm still pretty full. My plan for dinner is a wheat wrap and sun chips, but I'm not sure if I'll have dinner, maybe just another snack (Jell-O). So, not a bad day... much better than yesterday I think. Also, the dress I ordered came today. It's super cute and a size Large which is about a size smaller than I am now (or two lol). My fiancé comes home from school on May 23rd. The plan is to wear it when I pick him up from the airport. Wish me luck :)
