Day 1

My last hoorah last night was sushi...yes sushi...why not pizza, tacos, pasta? well I am better than that! sushi is actually pretty healthy anyway (just lay off the high sodium soy sauce) but last night My husband and I went to this place called Fugi, the best sushi place in Lincoln. I tried many different kinds, let's see...there was yellowfin, salmon, tuna, mackeral, at least those where the ones I could remember by name...this going out for us 2 was like a meeting for how we are going to do this new life style change...oh and yes my husband decided to journey with me on this too...
Luckily my husband has a book that is basically a restaurant guide for dieters...sushi was one of the good places to go to...and lots of other places had many healthy guiltless choices! But yes indeed eating homecooked meals the right way is good too...so for today?? I will have one toasted bagel for breakfast and with low fat cream cheese....lunch? hubby wants to take me to pho nugyen, a Vietnamese place that serves small portions and healthy soup. My hubby will cook from the rick bayless cookbook and make some authentic chicken quesodillas for dinner tonight. A very healthy day for me, and for exercising? I will start it out slow by trying some pilates. I know I won't feel the ill-effects of dieting until about 2 weeks from now, I know my body will want sugar, fat, all of that yummy tasting stuff, and I will feel very hungry all the time for about a month...this will be hard, the first month always is...since I am starting into the 2nd third of march, I will hopefully lose 10 pounds by april 1st. I definitely need to buy a scale to record my weight weekly, but every month after that I hope to lose at least 13 pounds. We'll see how well march goes for me.
