Today was another great day! I was able to spend some time away from home today, sewing and laughing with friends, and I was still able to eat well. Yay! The Austin Modern Quilt Guild spent the weekend at The Quilt Ranch in Wimberely, and I was able to go out for the day today. I finished quilting Riley's quilt so I was super excited! But this isn't a quilting blog, so enough about that. ;-) My energy was great all day. I found myself hungry once during the day, and looked up only to realize it had been almost 4 hours since I had eaten. That's what happens when I sew... focus! If you are keeping up with my journal entries, you are probably wondering "Did she eat the brownies???".... and the answer is..... NO! I didn't! But... and yes there is a but... I licked the knife I used to cut them. But mainly just to make sure they tasted good before I let everyone else eat them. At least, that's what I'm telling myself so that I feel better about it. But seriously, I'm still really proud! On the diet guidelines for the 24 Day Challenge is recommends to follow the diet within 80%, so I think the lick of the knife knocks me down to like 99.5%, so I'm still doing good. Well, anyway, here is what my day looked like. Thanks for checking in!
7:30 - Probiotic pills ( I woke up late, so I skipped my thyroid meeds, 1 day won't kill me.)
8:00 - Spark
8:30 - Breakfast shake - in the car on the way to the quilt ranch, woo hoo!
10:30 - Egg, rice cake with almond butter - This was a nice break from sewing
12:45 - Salad with ham and turkey, avocado, tomatoes, and carrots and 4 strawberries
4:30 - Spark, pear, almonds, and egg
6:30 - Meatloaf, asparagus, brown rice
9:00 - Not sure what I'm going to have... apple? another rice cake? Mike and I are going to watch a movie, so, something snacky. It's a big step for us to sit down on a saturday to watch a movie and not eat ice cream or chocolate chip cookies... really I only miss the routine, not the sweets as much as I thought I would.
Bedtime - Cleanse pills and omega pills
Day 5 Summary - Well, the cleanse is halfway over, not bad! This was the first time I didn't exercise, but I think that's ok. I'll go for a jog tomorrow. Overall, good day!
