It Is a Monday

Good morning, Monday!  100 day projects for both kiddos are out the door (with the kiddos of course). 

So how is my Monday going to go?  138.5 lbs.  That was a great way to start!  Down a pound! 

Off to get my trampoline put together that I bought at Aldi's in January... January 2011 that is.  Pork cooking in the crock pot so I can shred it tonight for dinner.  Tomorrow is the dreaded Cleanse Day!  So that means no real food... just water and their products.  I have a mile long "to do" list that hopefully will  have me running all over the place for the entire day so I can not be around food.  We will see how that goes. 

But until then we will get through the day today.  Planning an early bedtime tonight.  Not good sleep last night and it shows!

.... (time passing)

Tonight was harder.  I am not in the best of moods or mind sets.  Not caused by diet but by that good old personal home crap we all have days of.  Plus not enough sleep for two nights.  So tonight I wanted to soothe myself with soda and bad food that I was smelling at Nicolas' soccer game.  But thankfully the fun and excitement of watching him play soccer (he got his first goal of this session tonight and they WON big) kept me focused on other things.  So I am finishing this up and going to bed early.  I need my strength for tomorrows Cleanse Day!

Dinner tonight turned out good.  I made a Mexican Shredded Pork in the crock pot with salsa, herbs, cocoa (yep... unsweetened cocoa).  I think it would have been good with some onions and green peppers simmering in there to add to the tortillas after.  I made mine on a salad and the rest of the family I layered with black beans, cheese, lettuce and tomato.  It went over big!!!




I don't think I should have had it on lettuce but on some brown rice or quinoa.  The Quinoa would have probably helped fill me for tomorrow.  I was hungry after soccer so I do admit having a 1/4 of the Meal Replacement bar which has a ton of protein.  Hoping it helps hold me over more.  Or else tomorrow might not work... I don't want to starve or be horribly mean.  That is why I know i couldn't last on those 500 calorie diets.  I am not hungry or starving on this.... until tomorrow. 

What is going to happen tomorrow?
