Engine 2 - Day 8

Today was a test. It was hard. Stress from work, and overall just being a bad day lead me to almost eat off the plan. That's not to say, I was weak but I found myself around lunch time almost going to eat like I used to. 

I dug deep, got a grip. I panicked some, but I made it. It bothered me a great deal, I was cruising on Engine 2. 

Later I struggled again, realizing I needed to make sure I was exploring new recipes and not just eating the things I liked. We all know, if it was easy everyone would be doing it. 

Light workout in the morning, and I fasted form 8p on, due to my blood-work I was having done the following morning.  

I feel this week is a test. So I'm digging in. 

Also, I realized not to weigh myself everyday. It's no good. I did today and had weighed a whole pound heavier than I had before.  Only once a week from now on.
