Happy New Day my FS Buddies,

Just For Today, I Commit to Staying on My Food Plan.

SO, my friend of 40 years came through town for a visit yesterday. Since I knew we would do dinner, I chose OMAD.

I am amazed I am getting more control around my choices! I ordered 12 grilled shrimp, and a salad. I had under one cup of mashed potatoes. My indulgence was a half glass of red wine I shared with my husband. Then, they wanted ice cream and I ordered the "kiddie" size scoop.

I tried to keep the calories in the range...probably will see a jump on the Idiot Box but it will balance out in the end.

THIS is what I am talking about! Lifestyle changes...

Calorie Deficit, Protein and Weight training....top three items!

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle - Tom Venuto

Current Goals:
* Down on the Idiot Box while rebuilding muscle
* Bodyfat% reading with trainer once weight is down
* Drink at least 8-10 cups of fresh water/fluids daily
* Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting three to five days a week
* Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload

@jengetfit123 - Yes! It was great for her to see us here at the beach. She had only visited Minneapolis when I had my little south Minneapolis house...

Great Idea HCB, I have been doing that more on some eating out stuff, getting the junior portions!!🙂

Eating out can be challenging but unless you eat out often I wouldn't worry about logging unless it's just to get an idea of the calories or protein or whatever you are concerned about. Practicing portion control is a great plan when eating out. I eat out rarely and unless the restaurant menu is in the FS database I don't worry about it. Often the menus tell you the calories. I also do OMAD when I eat out.

that's awesome and unless you have a ton of meat, cheese, and dressing on your salad, you are way under a day's calories.

Lightbeing P... it's what HCB calls a scale. My grandmother always called the television the idiot box so I was confused the first few times I read the posts. 🤷‍♀️
