Day 25

I woke up with a bit of fever this morning ...

Today was the first time in a long time that I was alone for breakfast ... So, I took advantage of that and went to my neighborhood bakery, picked up a newspaper and ordered a soy latte, a small raisin muffin and a croissant.  I love fresh croissants, but one croissant is not enough so that's why I ordered the little muffin!  I spent about an hour at the bakery, enjoying my treats and observing people while reading the paper.

Lunch was a potluck event.  I made healthy choices, one plate of food which included salads and a cup of soup.  A cup of tea with a few spoons of baked apples with oatmeal.

Dinner was a super late dinner after mid night.  We went out and I actually ordered breakfast; two french toasts and one egg :)

I did drink lost of water today, but forgot to take my vitamins and now it's too late to take them.

So, no workout today because of my minor cold symptoms.  I'll be getting back in the swing of things tomorrow.  As you can tell, I didn't push myself to eat very healthy today ... I believe while I'm trying to eat healthier and workout, I've got to have days where I am free to eat whatever I like ...   I cant go too long without having croissant and french toast!!!

 Here is my logic ... If I deprive myself of food that I love, I might not be able to continue on this weight loss journey, but if I take a day off here and there I'm gonna keep going.  Since I have decided that during "that time of the month" I'm gonna be easy on myself ... then I'm gonna take the opportunity to eat my favorite food that I don't usually eat during the month .... hitting two birds with one stone; comforting myself and satisfying my cravings :)
