I am happy that the goal of this phase of "Project Traci" is being met! My sleep pattern seems to be reset and I've been tired at a reasonable hour, sleeping between 6 and 7 hours a night, and (usually) waking up refreshed and on time. My energy levels have been much better, too...
Funny thing happened this morning -- put on my sweatpants in preparation for a busy day of cleaning, laundry and taxes and realized that I had to use the drawstring in the waistband to keep them up. I've owned these crazy pants for 12 years and that's the first time I've ever had to do that. What a great feeling! Now I wish I hadn't had to turn down the last-minute shopping trip to Montana that my friend proposed. I had such a busy week this week that I was too tired to even contemplate getting up early for a day-trip like that. Next time for sure, because I don't think I'll be able to get away with pinning the waistbands on my summer clothes this year...
Today's Menu
Breakfast: fieldberry yogurt with strawberries, coffee
Lunch: 3 egg vegetarian omelette (yellow & green pepper, portobello mushroom, onion, spinach), jasmine green tea, water -- I added a little bit of cheese because an omelette just isn't right if there's no cheese -- had the restaurant substitute sliced tomato for the toast/hash brown side
Dinner: Dr. Mike's taco salad (with salsa, tomato, onion, cheese) -- and a slice of pizza (couldn't resist...)
No snacks today -- slept in so breakfast was late and then so was lunch. Dinner was at a reasonable hour, so I didn't get to that "too late" starving stage I've found myself in a few times this week.
I'm looking forward to weigh-in #2 on Monday. And some awesome sleep tonight!
Greetings and felicitations!
Welcome! I invite you to join me on my journey to better health and well-being. Believe me, if I can do this, so can you!
My promise to you is no preaching, no soapbox, no lectures. This is going to be about what worked well for me -- I will comment but that's it -- take what you will from that. I figure, the book doesn't preach, so why should I? Feel free to post questions or comments -- and pass along the link to anyone who you feel might be interested. The more, the merrier!
However, I am only human...expect the occasional foot-stamping tantrum when I want chocolate...
