day 4

Wooftah! Day 4!

I have been tracking my food on an excel spreadsheet for 4 days now. I am already seeing the benefits of this. It is really holding me accountable for what I eat. I've been doing such a good job with eating better. I know it's only been a few days, but that is a big deal for me. Today would have been an easy day to crash. My grandpa came into my work today and asked if he could take me to lunch (this is a first) and he wanted to go to McDonalds. I didn't want to be rude, so there I was at McDonalds thinking of how awesome their fries are fresh out of the scolding oil and smelling those delicous crispy chicken sandwiches....ahhhhh!!! I want one! But actually I didn't. Yeah they taste good but I have been eating so light that I'll feel like crap if I dive into a number nine right now. So I got a salad and used up 1/3 of my calorie intake for the day. I feel super full too. A bit tooooo full. I've never gotten so full off of a salad. Can my body already be getting used to this lighter eating???? In just 4 days????? I feel great to get so full off of lettuce and chicken. And when I'm working out tonight I won't be thinking "gotta burn off those french fries" I'll just be thinking the normal thoughts of "gotta burn off the last two years :)"

Day 4:
I survived a trip to McDonalds!!!
