I am sorry to be such a negative nelly tonight but I am just feeling blue. Anyone have any advice? Anyone been through this?
Okay on today's eats. I really don't know what my problem is but I could have eaten all day long if I allowed myself to. Ugh! Before lunch I had about 8 small pretzel sticks that a co-worker gave me After lunch I had a Nature Valley PB granola bar. When I got home from work I heated up some Chicken Stoup that I made yesterday afternoon in the crock-pot. I said Stoup because it was a cross between a soup and a stew.
In the crock-pot went the following ingredients: (I did not measure anything)
- skinless chicken thighs
- cubed potatoes
- carrots
- onions
- frozen peas with pearl onions
- garlic powder
- a little olive oil
- fresh ground pepper
- sprinkle of sea salt
- 1 can low sodium chicken broth
- a little water and 1 sodium-free, chicken bouillon powder
I cooked it all on high for 5 hrs in the crock-pot. This was excellent! It was so nice to come home tonight to a cooked dinner. All I had to do was heat it up.
While dinner was heating up on the stove I had some Reduced Fat SOur Cream and Onion chips. I told you I don't know what i wrong with me lately!
After dinner I had 4 small little choc chip cookies (tiny...from a 100 calorie pack)
No gym tonight. It was snowing....yet again I had to make it home to shovel before it got too late. Did I mention yet how tired I am of the snow! That's 3 times I needed to shovel in 2 days!
I am off to relax. I am hoping I will be in a better mood tomorrow. I need a good sweaty workout tomorrow.
Sorry for the slump. It happens to everyone ... or at least most everyone.
ReplyDeleteI was just reading in Marie Claire I think it was that if you look in the mirror and think you look fine one day and then a day or two later you hate everything you see, the issue is totally mental. Give it a few days and a few good workouts and I bet you'll feel better.
