Back In The Saddle Again...

After taking some time off of ye olde diet, it is time to restart.  The IQ lowering giant orange flower in my hair cannot hide the fact that I need to seriously turn the yo-yo strings back over to my husband, the Diet Police.  And so, insert tongue into cheek and sing along with Gene Autry...



I'm back in the saddle again
Out where my husband's no friend
Where the eggs, almonds, and jerky are my feed
And the lowly flax seed
Back in the saddle again

Munching the sweets no more
Totin' a face like Eeyore
Where you log steps every night
And the only Fit Bit is right
Back in the saddle again

Whoopi-ty-aye-oh
Brain games to and fro
Back in the saddle again
Whoopi-ty-aye-yay
The less I weigh
Back in the saddle again

Breakfast:
20 almonds
Coffee with creamer

Mid-Morning Snack:
Coffee with creamer

Lunch:
Egg whites with Babybel cheese

Mid-Afternoon Snack:
Whole wheat wrap
Orange

Dinner:
Protein shake with almond milk, flax seed, frozen fruit, and peanut butter

Although I administered the first session of the FCAT today, I sauntered around the classroom rather than walking a faster paced lap.  My Fit Bit said that I had logged almost 9,000 steps by 4:00.  The daily goal is to do 10,000 steps a day, but my personal goal is to achieve 10,000 steps by the time I get home from work.  Since we are testing this week, I'm wearing my saddle shoes which makes for quiet steps (and no high heels=no excuses for not stepping). 

 And so, I am officially setting these mini goals for this week:
1.  Stick with my "diet".
2.  Log at least 10,000 steps by 3:30 pm.
