Spring Challenge Showering Lilies Week 3
I lost all my self control this week with Easter and all the candy and starting a new job for the first time in 5 years. The amount of food I have consumed for this week is ridiculous and I know it needs to stop or I will never lose this weight and I will just get bigger and bigger!!! My calorie goal that I set for myself after much research is 2000 a day since I am nursing and trying to work out 5 times a week. So here is my food log for the week! I am ashamed and embarrassed but I will overcome this part of my life and this will all be a vague distant memory.

Well I did completely horrible and I eat like this most of the time so its a wonder I don’t weigh 500 lbs!!! I did however gain back 4lbs this week and my calories had a lot to do with it but also sodium makes me bloat up like a balloon. My goal for the next week is to hit my calorie goals and exercise goal and watch my sodium super close! I feel yucky about my food choices but I am so thankful that every day is a new chance to get it right.
