I have yet to not go work out. I have not had a day where I even thought about not going. I actually look forward to going and am loving it. The same goes for my eating habits. I enjoy eating healthier. I haven't really craved anything unhealthy which is amazing since I ate horrible before all this.
Having said that above, I had a baby shower today at Pizza Hut. It was my first time veering from my new healthy lifestyle. I skipped breakfast mostly because I was busy getting ready after my work out but for lunch I did have 2 slices of pizza, one breadstick and two bone out chicken wings. I did skip on the cake though as I figured I'd eaten bad enough. After I got home I've really not cared to have dinner so I just had a greek yogurt. I've stayed around my 1,000 calorie mark even though I ate out of my norm without feeling hungry and starving myself. I'm not a huge yogurt fan but tried Dannon Light and Fit Greek Salted Caramel Yogurt and found I really enjoyed it. The texture was thicker almost like pudding and that felt nicer than normal yogurt.
My other new food venture was the Nasoya Zero Pasta Spaghetti. I had it with my normal pasta sauce and it really cured my craving for spaghetti without all the carbs. I could make it healthier by finding a different sauce but used what I had on hand. Did I want some bread slathered in butter to sop up the extra sauce? Oh you bet your sweet butt!!! I refrained though.
I am a huge emotional eater and tonight has tested my will power. Our house is home to 4 wonderful dogs (3 miniature Dachshunds and a Shepherd/Lab mix) and 1 cat. About a month ago I was contacted about a little girl doxie who needed help. I took her in and on to the vet. She was malnourished, her little ribs were showing and her skin was wrinkled on her there was so much extra. She's food aggressive with our other boys so needed to be fed in the bathroom with the door shut. Her skin was terrible! No fur as she'd scratched it constantly and had open, oozing sores. I got her to the vet and medicine and healed her up, gave her lots of love and unfortunately got attached. I knew ultimately we couldn't keep her. She just wasn't fitting in with our boys and we had to worry about fights. She hadn't been treated nicely by another dog in her last home I think so needed to be in an only dog home. Tonight I found that home for her. She is going to be spoiled rotten and well loved and as much as I know it's the right choice, it was still so hard and I cried buckets. I will call tomorrow to see how she's doing. I'm sure she's going to do fine.
Besides the baby shower and re-homing little Tink, I also worked on some geek jewelry by drilling some D20s with my new dremel I got for Christmas. I only broke 3 drill bits and almost beaned one of my dogs with a flying die spinning across the room when the bit broke and it broke free from the vice. I gave up at that point for everyone's safety!
