Day two!!!

I made it through day two everybody! Once again I am wore out, but no better way to end the day than to cuddle up with Alice, my cat, and read my book... The Help, which by the way, is very good so far but I can't compare to the movie because I am holding off. Anyways here was today's routine.

I got up an hour early today and prepared a snack and lunch to take with me to my classes. This is what I ate today:

Breakfast
*1 slice of 12 grain toast topped with half a cup of strawberry chobani yogurt and a dash of cinnamon...DELICIOUS! I gobbled it up so quickly I didn't get to take a picture of it to share.
*half of a grapefruit

Snack
* 3 oz of baby carrots (no dip)
*a medium sized pickle... had to have the pickle, I hate raw carrots I think they taste like dirt

Lunch
*4 cup spring mix salad topped with half of an apple, one hard boiled egg white, 1/3 cup kashi go lean cereal mix with almonds and 1 tbsp raspberry vinaigrette dressing.
*1/2 cup light strawberry banana jello

Snack
*the other half cup of my strawberry chobani yogurt

Dinner
*I made a yummy sandwich with 2 oz of boiled chicken, dijon mustard, 2 tbsp mozzarella cheese and a little bit of garlic salt all grilled together like a delicious panini on my oh so handy George Forman grill.

When you write it all down it seems like a lot, but when I think back to what I was letting myself eat and the portion sizes I am mortified!

When it comes to my work out today I fulfilled the following:
 My daily work out x2
1 hour on the treadmill alternating run/walk

Let's hope I can keep this up. I already got some encouragement from my brother from another mother today while I was at the gym. Dear Mr. Griffith approached me and wished me his best for this journey I am on. I really appreciate it! Encouragement really helps, it is very difficult to do this alone therefore I decided to blog my work. I am also trying to keep in touch with a friend who lives about an hour away from me through e-mail. She is sharing her progress with me as I do with her. Wish us luck!

p.s. Sorry no pictures! I will get some up and running tomorrow!
