Dan Nied's Fortress of Weight Loss: Day 92

What I’ll Eat Tomorrow
It’s a little late here, so I’ll just run down the basics:

Cheerios, turkey sandwich, chicken sandwich from Starbucks (brought home by roommate, sandwich is lowfat with 330 calories and 3.5 grams of fat), Fruit platter, apple after work.

How Thursday Went
Probably not the best day, but interesting nonetheless. Actually, I’ll detail it in the next section, which happens to be coming up right….now.

The Real Reason I Brought You Here Today
So Thursday, I blew off the gym and decided to go Saturday instead. Not the best idea, I suppose, but one I am comfortable with. As long as I get there five times per week, I’ll be happy. Of course, the key to regularly going to the gym five days per week is to go when the week actually begins. As it is, I’ve already blown off Sunday and Thursday this week, putting the pressure on to get there Friday and Saturday. But this is pressure I can handle.

As for Thursday’s menu, I didn’t exactly follow it. But, looking back at the day, I think it all worked out decently in an odd way.

Originally, I planned a tuna sandwich for Meal 3, which came around 6 p.m., and then four pieces of fruit around 9 p.m. Instead, I came home from work to eat, and decided to make a salad before all my vegetables went bad. That was a 600 calorie meal. Then I forgot to pack the fruit so I could eat it at work. So I was kind of stuck. Instead of two apples, an orange and a pear, I had to improvise. What did I do? I had two Jolly Ranchers, some dried out mango and about 10 pea pods, all scavenged from coworkers. When I came home at 11:30, I just brewed up some tea and that was that.
