Fresh Start- Keeping Track

After last week's revelation regarding reality, I've implemented some changes in my life since returning from vacation.  So far, I've been 100% successful in meeting my eating and exercise goals.

Granted, I started this plan yesterday.  Hey - one day at a time, right? ;-)

So yesterday...

Exercise: 30 minutes + stretching time
Fluids: Nothing but water (I missed you, my cold fizzy caffeinated friend)
Food:  
Breakfast- Kashi Go Lean Cruch with skim milk and raspberries from the garden

Lunch - pasta with olive oil, garlic, salmon, capers, onion, mushrooms, and sun dried tomatoes (about 1/3 the portion I usually have) 

Snack - Triscuits with a bit of hummus and salsa for dipping

Dinner - Huge taco salad with lettuce, onion, carrots, black beans, fat free sour cream, salsa, and a tiny bit of ground beef.  And dessert...my weakness...totally lost control here.  I don't feel bad one bit (it was REALLY yummy), but I'll try to stop at 1 piece next time.

Compared to the way I typically eat and (fail to) exercise, I'm calling this day a success.  

(And with all the water and fiber I ate, I can honestly say I wasn't hungry once.)
