Day 7

Today was my first day back at the bar since I've started my clean eating. I wasn't sure how it was going to go, because when we're busy back there sometimes it can be hard to eat. But I packed my lunch, and just tried to take a bite of things as I went along. I was very tempted to eat some candy that a regular had brought in (there was a huge bag of starbursts! yum!). But I stuck to, and only at what I brought!

Here's what my day looked like:

Breakfast:
Oatmeal with berries & cinnamon
3 eggs scrambled (trying to add more protein to my morning)
Chocolate protein shake

Snack 1:
Greek yogurt with berries

Lunch:
Salad with grilled chicken and italian dressing

Snack 2:
Apples and pb

Dinner:
Leftover steak, asparagus and butternut squash

I also probably drank about two gallons of water. Lol. I bring a water bottle to work and constantly fill it up. It's much easier behind the bar than at the office to stay hydrated.

Although my eating was right on track today, I had kind of a rough day. After work I came home and tried to pick out an outfit for tomorrow. Everything I tried on I hated, and I realized it's because I'm not happy with how I look. I don't like the way my clothes lay. I don't feel pretty, sexy or confident in anything. I'm usually not this down on myself, but tonight I just wasn't feeling it. After trying on several outfits I finally gave up and decided I would pick out something in the morning, when I'll hopefully be feeling a little bit better about myself. But that's part of the reason I'm doing this, I'm trying to make a healthier, happier me. I know it's going to take some time, and a lot of hard work, and I'm excited for the journey.
