I didn't check my blood sugar or get on the scale this morning. I am going to do my best to limit my time on the scale, it does me more harm. I am sure I am down. I tried my best not to let the uptick bother me, but it really did. I was so glad to see it down. I am thinking about Monday's and timeline goal dates (mostly 1st and 15th of the month). I have faith that if I am following this WOE, that I will lose weight. I should have checked my blood sugar and will continue to do that.
E: 30min workout (arms, back), 30min treadmill.
Yesterday's food:
L: salad, steamed broccoli, spicy broccoli brown rice
D: salad, steamed green beans, spicy broccoli brown rice
Cooked up a batch of spicy brown rice. I added some corn, so it isn't exactly Mary's Mini, but I feel it is in the spirit of Mary's Mini as I will be eating it for 4 or more meals. So I am not sure if I should call it a Mary's Mini. I also had some oatmeal this morning. I was hungry. It was cold this morning and I had a decent workout at the gym. I was also tired after I ate and took a nap. Not sure if I will be doing that again, that is why I am posting late.
Next week is my father's funeral service. There will be a lunch following. I will have a few food challenges. My wife wants me to stay on plan because she knows in the past, when I go off plan it is hard to get back on plan. I was already trying to justify why eating on plan would be hard and that it would just be a few meals. I am glad I have her encouragement and support. I know that I am not going to starve to death at any of these food functions and that I can get a potato and some veggies to eat when needed. I will need to come up with a plan. I am going to check to see if the room has a microwave.
