Apparently I can only accomplish one thing at a time. I am becoming a work out rock star. I was at the gym 4 times last week, 5 times the week before and likely will get in 5 times this week as well since I am now free on Wednesday mornings. And I am excited because I really feel like I am getting stronger. My legs feel firmer and my arms look more defined. However, I am eating like a pig.
Last night I made a smoothie with ice cream in it for dinner. Actually I had already had chips and salsa. We were a divided dinner family so it was easy to just be lazy with my meal. Isabelle was asleep for dinner and woke up late so I just let her eat a bowl of ice cream for dinner. No wonder she is a terrible eater.
Although last night was a low point I actually think the main problem is in snacking. I am eating too many late night snacks and between meal snacks. I know alot of diet plans call for snacking between meals but I really don't think they work for me. I need to simply eat my 3 healthy meals a day. Maybe one snack if I am out running around and going to be eating a late, but nothing after dinner. That is when I go wrong. Even healthy snacks can go wrong after dinner.
So I am abandoning the idea of eating some special way, I really feel like I have good meal habits already, and simply focus on not snacking. With that I feel I can loose the weight I gained over the holidays and be ready to show off my pre-triathlon body when we hit the Florida beach at the end of March.
