Life is about successes and failures (Day #4)

Hi. Okay, I kind of had a diet fail today, and instead of cowering in the corner and pretending it didn't happen, I'm going to document exactly what happened so I can reflect and not do this again.

To summarize, my diet was fine until dinner time, when I offered to got a sushi buffet with the boyfriend.

I literally have no excuse. I went to the sushi buffet because I thought it would make him happy (he was feeling down), but he was also up to going to a sushi place where I wouldn't order so much sushi in the first place.

I should have picked the actual Japanese restaurant. My mistake.

My success, though, is that I did exercise today and I didn't eat as much as I could have, so that's good! And in the grand scheme of things, sushi in itself isn't a bad "cheat meal", so I'm going to look at the positives here and move on.

Breakfast:
Fruit smoothie (the usual)
Leftover tinola with half cup of white rice

Snack #1: 
Chocolate-covered raisins

Lunch:
Baked salmon with carrots, potatoes, green beans, onions, with EVOO and herbs

Snack #2: 
one serving pringles, one serving macademia nuts

Dinner:
Sushi: half a roll of some deep-fried roll (didn't realize it was going to be deep fried!), and about one roll of a salmon roll.

Snack #3:
Muscle milk one bottle
Probably will eat half cup of white rice and the rest of the tinola before it spoils (about half serving)

I have a Muffin Top, and I hate it

I don't just have pudge. I have a full-on muffin top. I wear a pair of jeans my stomach literally spills over the waistband. I could literally down and grab a handful of tummy fat. When people take pictures of me sitting, I can clearly see the fat rolling down from under my shirt. I can only hope to hide away and wear a shirt big enough, and dark enough, to conceal it all. But not anymore! Nope. The hiding is done. Today, I'm creating a weight loss journal to help me keep track of everything that I go through from this on out. It's a way to keep track of things, and it being on a public platform, it helps me stay accountable. Expect some daily food updates, along with weekly weight loss numbers, possible measurements, and especially a screen shot of this cool app thing I bought with a smart scale. This isn't meant to be a professional blog, but a personal one. I can only hope this information, through my successes and failures, can help you i...
