Day 1 - Power 90 Weight Loss Challenge

Day 1 Journal



I almost didn't start today! I woke up tired and for a moment said "maybe tomorrow". Then, I looked at the clothes in my closet I can no longer wear, and changed my mind!



I did 20 minutes of the 30 minute workout video. My legs were burning so bad, I just couldn't go anymore. There was no rest time in between sets. Now I know why they say you will lose weight. It's a constant flow of cardio movement!!



What I have been eating today:



Breakfast - 1 cup oatmeal with brown sugar

Snack - 8 baby carrots with ranch dip

Lunch - 1 can tuna fish with olive oil and a few croutons

Snack - 1 small apple

Dinner - 1 chicken thigh, 1 cup mashed potato's, and 1 cup cream corn

Snack - 1 cup of sunflower seeds



What I have been drinking today:



2 cups of water before breakfast

1.5 cups of hot decaf tea with breakfast

1 can Mug Rootbear with lunch

2 cups of water with afternoon snack

1.5 cups of hot decaf tea with dinner

2 cups of water with evening snack



Due to all the liquids I have been drinking, I am surprisingly not hungry! The down side...I have been taking potty breaks all day!!



What am I challenged with: I crave sugary and salty snacks. That is my weakness. If I can control what food I eat during snack time, I will definitely lose weight.



See you in the morning!!
