Okay…if you read yesterday’s post you know that I gained three pounds last weekend and hit an emotional low point that felt like it could break my resilience if I let it.  So then today is weigh-in Wednesday and I figured “what the heck…I don’t even think I expect any progress anymore so who cares”.  Just when I think I don’t care anymore, it turns out I do.  I lost two pounds and am back down to 149.  Hello again 140’s- I hate it when we part!  Going back and forth between upper 40’s and low 50’s is getting old.  It has been a rollercoaster; fun at first but now I want to get off it and hit more stable ground. 
Also, another thing that cheered me up this morning was getting dressed.  There have been many days where getting dressed was the low-point of the day.  Today though, is a bright sunny spring day, so I thought I would get some capris on with sandals to celebrate this weather.  My only complaint was that my capris are too big- and we all know that is not a complaint.  These were tight around my waist last summer, now they are hanging off me around my waist, hips and thighs.  They don’t really look good because they clearly do not fit, but I am wearing them today anyways.  They are my badge.  There is a new sheriff in town and her name is “I’m thinner than last summer”- I’ll take it! 
Today my dietary plan is to have peanut butter toast for breakfast, smoothie for lunch and burritos for dinner with my family.  Here is how it should breakdown in a caloric count:
Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner
1 slice of Toast
Peanut Butter
246
Smoothie
165
2 rice and black bean burritos with salsa
494

Total= 905 calories
