Day 2

I didn't weigh in today; I'd probably be disappointed. I think Chels and I did a great job sticking to our plan throughout the day but obviously results aren't immediate in this arena. 

As the evening grew short and our schedule was still variable based on Carson returning from his football game, I was ready to succumb to a Totinos pizza for dinner. Luckily, my wife held us strong at that point at made cabbage, potatoes, and sausage for us! 

Today, another great food choice by Chelsie: she got us Healthy Choice Italian  Pasta Bake :) Calories, portion, carbs, fiber, protein were all friendly for us. Sodium is the typical black sheep in these prepared meals, but with greatly increasing our water intake, hopefully that's not an issue. I know when we're pressed for time that's usually when we make worse choices, so by having some Healthy Choice(s) only a few minutes away from ready at all times we should be able to avoid that pitfall. 

For our exercise today, we decided to move Jordan's tv downstairs. That may not sound like a big deal, but it's a 36" TUBE tv, and our house is old with narrow stairways. Maybe tomorrow we'll attempt a more traditional workout, like moving pallets around our yard :)

  1. I may be able to help with recipes. Are you guys looking for meals that only the 2 of you would eat, or all of the family?
    Besides onions... anything that you guys don't like /are allergic to?
