What I Eat in a Day ????????????

Lately I’m taking action to slim down and get to MY personal happy weight/shape ????

so I’ve been eating less than usual mostly by cutting out snacks, processed crap and lowering carbs.

My other trick is MINDFUL EATING ????

Before putting anything in my mouth ???? I ask myself – WHY?

Am I hungry? Stressed? Emotional? Bored?

So I only eat when I’m hungry, which naturally eliminates snacking. If I’m hungry between meals, that could mean one or more of the following 3️⃣ reasons:

♦️ I did not eat enough/balanced at previous meal (this often happens with breakfast)

♦️ I’ve been working out more/expending more energy in other ways (running around like a crazy chicken ????)

♦️ I’m PMSing, and my fellow ladies would know how that goes. Our metabolism actually does speed up in the 2nd phase of the cycle, by 100-300 cals, its individual (not by 1000 cal – so your 2 slices of cake and a serving of chicken wings are not justified ????)

???? Breakfast: pancakes and coffee (o later figured that wasn’t enough, eggs and spinach with lo told do it better for me)

???? Lunch: roasted chicken breast, white beans, spinach and green beans topped with olive oil, truffle salt and Dijon mustard (I’m addicted to Dijon ????)

???? Dinner: seared salmon, baked sweet potato fries, arugula salad with cherry tomatoes, lemon juice and olive oil. I might’ve come back for more fries… and salad… ???? ????

With food I need variety, can’t eat the same every day. I also listen to my body and don’t deny it food. I learn from my experiences and correct mistakes as I go (like my breakfast – tomorrow eggs for sure ????)
