I did reasonably well yesterday, only going over my RDI by about 50 calories. Since we ate breakfast late I planned to skip lunch/snack altogether. I did end up eating about a third of a honeycrisp apple cause hubby was having a snack...I ate it off his plate 😁 I was in the midst of packing up decorations. I collected all the snowmen, Santas, greenery etc. from all the corners of the house but haven't touched the trees, the mantel garland or the garland on the banister. They all have lights that I'm still enjoying. I have errands to run today, but I'll start removing ornaments and packing them up in the next few days.
We joined friends & had dinner out at a local pizza/ Italian restaurant. I had a huge salad that I shared a portion of with hubby. Chickpeas, dried cranberries, cherry tomatoes, onion, feta on a bed of mixed greens. Hubby ordered a caprese blt. sandwich....I had a sliver of that & a glass of Malbec. I sipped the wine stretching it out while everyone else had a 2nd drink.
After we got home I had a rum & eggnog for "dessert". There's just a little left. Then....a second dessert of Boom Chika Pop popcorn. 😐 Only 140 calories, but I probably should have resisted that urge.
Looking back at my Dec. weekly calorie averages they ranged from just over 1500 a week to over 2000 a week. Some days I ate considerably less & some much more. I'm thinking this is what maintenance may look like. As long as every day isn't a free for all, I can have days I indulge. During the week of Christmas when my daughter was here & we were eating 3 meals a day I was thinking " This is too much food" & actually looking forward to my normal WOE.
