A day Late

     I was so so exhausted last night that when I decided to close my eyes for a few minutes before writing, I ended up sleeping until my alarm went off this morning! Not only was a super busy day but I was also anxious about my biometric. I think that I was so wound up about it in my brain, that after it was done it was like taking a deep breath after you have been holding it for a while. 

      I was surprised it was not as terrible as I thought it would be. Let's be clear: my numbers are not good at all, and I have a lot of work in order to decrease my risks and increase my quality of life. However, I was shocked that my total cholesterol was actually normal and that my glucose (my biggest fear) was normal as well. I was also excited about having lost another 2.2 pounds since last Friday. I want to think that my hard work so far has aided those numbers and that as I continue down this path, I will only continue to improve. I plan on getting my labs done again in 3 months to see how everything is.

      Here is my LUNCHBOX OF THE DAY: 

 I had a bigger than usual lunch today with 5oz of mushrooms sauteed in a tiny bit of coconut oil and mixed with some parsley and 3oz of roasted pork loin. I had my usual veggies to snack on during the day as well. I will be working late today and wanted to make sure I was not tempted to snack before I get home tonight. Hope everyone has a great weekend! As for me, This is Hump day and will be working over the weekend. Stay strong everyone!
