Day 8 - 1st week of band camp in the books :-)

Total weight loss - (-) 7 lbs

Today's Challenge - I have decided that today i would let myself go out for dinner during the band camp break. . . . . . . . and it's brownie day for our daily food break at camp also - sponsored by the music boosters . . . .


Breakfast - Bagel thin with butter.  Definitely stopped me from going in to Dunkin!  I definitely have to keep up with these bagel thins.  Also a glass of Trop 50 OJ.

Lunch - Cold cuts on another bagel thin.  I'm pretty sure I had a snack too, but I can't remember what it was.  Whatever it was, it was not big.  Oh - i think it was goldfish.

Snack - yeah, the music boosters brought brownies today.  They were HUGE so Kristyn and I decided to share one.  And then we immediately decided to share another one, since they were so good!  :-)   Not a great idea, but better than the usual 2-3 I would have had if I was not at least trying a little bit here!

Dinner - My triumphant return to pizza after a 1 week layoff. 

I did not avoid pizza in particular, but I was trying not to eat out - saves money and usually saves calories.  I broke one of my original rules - I had 2 slices.  To be completely honest, I just kinda forgot and ordered 2 slices like it was completely natural.  The people at Cresskill Pizza make me a special slice - Sausage Rollatini - It's a sausage slice with dollops of ricotta cheese and marinara on top.  It is SO good!  So I had 2 of those and a gatorade.

Snack - later at night, I went ahead and had a serving of goldfish.  I'm a little obsessed with goldfish.  As long as I have them in normal human serving sizes, I'm ok.

ya know - at some point I need to start having more fruit and veggies.  I know this.  Currently, My brain is not set to want these.  I will work on it.  I really will.  It's a whole other change of concept that I had to add in.  I'll try to make it happen, I really will.

Spoiler alert - gained a little today.  Just goes to show you that if you don't stay on track, it's easy to fall off!  I'll do my best tomorrow!

The good news is that the first week of band camp is over and we learned the first drill.  Next week, we are on for another 3 day week - and our family/friends preview show on Thursday night.  I like these 3 day weeks.  Makes it not seem so bad . . . . . .

Day 1 is exciting
Day 2 means that tomorrow is the last day
Day 3 is the last day.

There is no Tuesday feeling, or Hump day with 2 more days following.  No Friday feeling of the end of a long week.  Pretty good set up!

I'm out. . . . . . .
