What I Ate Monday: Getting Back on Track

Yesterday, I was on it! I set a goal to get back on track and I completed day one with much success!

Here’s what made it feel super successful to me:
  • Drank a gallon of water
  • Ate within my set nutritional range
  • Went for a walk outside


It was successful for many other reasons, too. I had some good quiet time with God, spent a lot of good quality time with my family, and felt content and accomplished at the end of the day.

Here’s a little peak into everything I ate during my first day back on track.

Breakfast ended up being leftover grilled potatoes and green beans with a fried egg.


For lunch, my girls and I met up with my husband at Subway. We also shared some Timbits which aren’t pictured. I had 3.


In the afternoon, Piper’s friends asked her to go to their house and since Laney was feeling left out (since she was too little to go) I asked her what she wanted to do with me and she said, “bake cookies!”, and so we did! I had 2.


While we were at the farm stand earlier that day, we got some cherries and so I found myself snacking on a few before dinner.


Dinner was amazing! We had stuffed peppers and rice. I started out with just a half pepper but went back for the other half because I was still hungry.



My evening snack was a handful of “Spicy Queso Popcorners” with a side of cottage cheese for protein.


Overall, I ended up eating around 1,630 calories for the day. This felt like a win because I had a couple of treats and felt like I had balanced it all pretty well to make day one quite satisfying!
