Keeping Track

So, the last few days have gone rather well.  Except for yesterday.  By 5 pm, all I had eaten was 2 pieces of string cheese.  This clearly set me up for a bit of a binge, because by the time I got home from working an unexpected shift at work and running a couple errands, I was RAVENOUS.  I stop by the store, grabbed some reduced fat salami and some Triscuits. I thought that a couple servings of each would make me less hungry, and it didn't.  I was just as hungry, if not more so.  I ended up eating FOUR servings of each, just because it was there and easy.  Then I had some more Triscuits.  I eventually just stopped keeping track.  The bf made some trout and brown rice for dinner, and I had a few ounces of trout and a cup of rice. I felt full but had a serious fro-yo craving, so I headed down to u-swirl.  I didn't do too bad, I loaded the cup half way with fruit and then topped it with frozen yogurt, but I still ate a lot more than I needed to.  Oh well.

Today is a new day, and my goal is to plan better for these situations.  I need to have a game plan every day so that I don't get so off track just because I am hungry and ill prepared.   Today, I went for a run (still on track for my half marathon training) and ate an egg white omelet afterwards.  I am about to go out and finish my mileage for the day and then come home and pack my lunch for work.  After all, it's only 251 days until I turn 30, and I need to be focused and dedicated if I want to start this new decade feeling my absolute best.
