Started yesterday, March 30, 2014. It was more mild than the last which was more mild than the prior one. This time I am prepared. I went to WinCo (my favorite place for clean ingredients) and bought almonds and whole wheat flour. I made my clean bread last night. I stuck to the plan today and yesterday for the most part. I had a diet coke last night.....but, GOLLY it was yummy!
I know so much about myself from this clean eating plan. I know that when I miss a meal/snack I doom myself. I, literally, crash and burn and blow my whole day of good intentions with one missed meal/snack.
As I was typing, I realized my snack time had approached. So, I grabbed some almonds and a string cheese stick. Now, I am back to normal.
We went to LV 1 1/2 weeks ago. I had a hard time. I expected to eat clean the entire time. It was hard. I struggled and took a few days off. But, came back home and, for the most part, was right back on.
I am still hovering around 205.5. I am trying really hard for this weeks weigh-in.
Fingers crossed.

I need to learn how to not let my period ruin me.
I started yesterday. I was fine yesterday. I got up today and just knew I did not have it in me to clean eat today. I screwed off and ate like crap until dinner. Let's see.....I was like that hungry little caterpillar today.....
First I finished off an entire bag of Hawaiian Potato Chips with Mango and Habenero
Next, I finished off the bag of chocolate teddy grahams
Next, I opened the bag of sour jelly beans that I was saving for Easter baskets
Next, I ate a handful of left over Christmas candy cane kisses even tho they taste like crap
At least I this point I was intelligent enough to stop (only because I ate all of the crap in the house) and have almond butter with Akmak crackers
My period sabotages me in such a huge way. I did not feel guilty or bad. I was just this crazy-eyed maniac seeking out crap. Thank God I did not go in the garage and dig thru the back up stock. Ya, that would have been just too crazy.
Geez.
I have told myself I will NOT weigh in this week. I need a few days to be bloated and gross and feeling like the treadmill is satan. I will be back in good spirits by Thursday afternoon.
I have all of the food in this house that I need to clean eat. I just could not think of one thing that would have sustained my craze.
Tomorrow is a new day. I will be back to my sane self and I will move forward.
My goal: 200 by Vegas. March 20th, 2014. That will be HUGE!

One cheat meal in the books
Tonight we celebrated my husbands birthday with his side. I made a devils food cake with homemade chocolate buttercream frosting. It was amazing, aside from the fact that my oven died and I had to bake the cake in a neighbors oven that was not as good as my oven. Bit on the odd-shaped size.
Tonight was my first cheat meal. I was a bit nervous about it. My in-laws were making chicken mole and spanish rice with beans. Fat, additives, bad carbs, fat and a side of fat. I had a piece of chicken, a small spoonful of rice with the beans. It was good. But, it was not to-die-for good. I had been dreaming of this meal for 8 weeks and it was....okay. I did not eat too much. I did not eat a helping bigger than my regular portion. I was happy with that. The birthday cake was wonderful and I had a small tbsp. size of Neapolitan ice cream. Just perfect.
And, my first cheat meal is in the books.
I am excited to get back on the plan in the morning. I am really looking forward to my healthy food being back.
I am approaching 200 lbs. and I am really happy. I am so resolved to the fact that I must exercise once each day. I like the feeling I get when I am all finished. On Friday I did (6-7) 2-2 intervals. That is a huge increase for me. I say 6-7 because I can't remember if I did 6 or 7.
We are traveling to Las Vegas on March 20th-23rd. We will be staying at the Station Casino and eating the buffet a few times. I am trying to prepare myself for that time. I will be doing it exactly by the books until we leave. When I am on vacation I must allow myself to be off and yet stay diligent about portions. I think the casino has a fitness room and I plan on working out daily, if time allows.
I need to figure out how to make my new life fit into my life. I know that sounds weird, but it is true. I cannot worry about the interruptions in my steady ride. I must move with the flow and allow interruptions to not be roadblocks.
