Day 2--School is Going to Kill Me

My distinct inability to get a consistent, decent lunch at school might be the death of me.  I'm all for eating salads for meals, but unfortunately with my schedule I REALLY need protein and other things to keep me going, especially right after lunch and my Sixth Period of Doom, or the SPoD.  A compromise is necessary and I'll find one eventually, but for now lunch is still going to be a wasted meal.

Breakfast--Two pieces of whole grain toast with peanut butter and water.  I'm finding more and more that water is one of the few things that really fills me up, which I think is a byproduct of all the fiber I've been consuming.  I've made a pledge to not have a soda until my birthday, which is Feb. 19th, so the new affinity for water has come at an excellent time.

Lunch--Non-existant.  Literally.  I ate a Fiber One bar and some Blueberry Flax Granola Chips.  It was tasty but a horrid meal.

Dinner--We went to Gringo's, a Mexican Food restaurant near our church, on Sunday and I always get the tortilla soup there.  I saved half of it for later on in the week, and Abby wasn't here for dinner so I called in the reserves.  It's a really vegetable-laden soup, and I don't eat cheese, so I think it was decently good for me.  I added some red and green bell peppers, half a zucchini, and some extra broth and had tortilla chips (I know, my bad) with it.  Stellar meal all around.

Dessert--I'm waffling (food terms are puns) between some kiwis or apples and leftover chocolate sauce from last night.  Guess which one will most likely win?

I need to work on lunches and reload my stash of Haagen Dazs fruit sorbets.  They're amazing (especially mango and raspberry) and better than ice cream on a fat/caloric level, although still sugary.  I also need more fruit to go with the veggie haul from yesterday.

So far I've lost 3 pounds in a little less than a week, give or take.  I haven't worked out in a while, partially because I've been sick, partially because of the holidays, partially because I'm lazy, and partially because our apartment workout room sucks.  So I'm satisfied, but not anywhere near finished.
