Thursday

Our dinner party went well last night, but I still don't know how to track it. I just need to suck it up. And I did really well while they were here, but then they left and left the tres leche cake (she's from Costa Rica)... and I miiiigght have had another piece... or two. Overall, it could have been much worse. I let Aaron keep it today and eat it throughout part of the day and then threw the rest away. Ahh, what a shame. Don't tell them though ;)

So I made mostaccoili and ate it with spaghetti squash instead of pasta, had a few small pieces of french bread, some great salad that I have waayy to much left over (so I ate it for lunch, but there's still a ton), and then the cake. If I would have stopped when they left, I would have been GREAT... but you know me and food when we're alone. lol Ahh, I wonder if I'll ever get over that.

Anyway, I didn't weigh myself this morning but will tomorrow for our official weigh in. I did go to the gym and did my kickboxing class. Yay! Although, I've been having some pretty bad lower back pain lately and kickboxing only exasterbated it. Ugh. BUT when class was over, the instructor (Paula, in case I refer to her again and you don't know who I'm talking about) came up and asked what my first name was and then proceeded to tell me that she loves watching me b/c my form is always so good and I really throw strong punches. Yay me! lol

Goals:
Um, it's already 3, but here are my goals for the rest of the day:
Keep eating good
Eat a lot of protein for snack and dinner tonight since I've only had 29 grams so far today.
Drink lots of water.
Research exercises I can do at home to strengthen my lower lumbar, which seems to be the problem with my back (?)
