My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 10

Welcome to day 10 of my personal fitness challenge.  Lots of challenges today but I still look back at it and consider myself as successful.  Today was a "High" day meaning I could have more food.  I started with my oatmeal and blueberries and the off to work.  Today was what we refer to as treat day which occurs every 2nd Wednesday. We all take turns bringing in sweet and savory treats.  I was going to skip it, but then I thought I would deprive myself of the social with my co-workers and I did not want to miss that.  I went and watched while they ate Pumpkin Apple bunt cake with Greek Yogurt and Spanipitica and a fantastic salad with yummy dressing.  I had black coffee and chatted with the girls and Erik.  None of them were really aware of my new Weight loss Challenge so I explained it to them and said don't feel bad that I am not eating, feel excited that I am working towards my goal.  Afterwards one of the girls Courtenay invited me to join their yoga group on Wednesday's at lunch.  Thanks Court!!  They were all invited to like the Team Fitness Facebook page and follow my progress.  Now the pressure is really on!

On to the next challenge, business lunch at the Thai House restaurant.  I love Thai food!  I ordered grilled Saba Fish (sauce on the side) with a side order of brown Jasmine rice plain, and lots of water.  I enjoyed the meeting, I left without feeling hungry but it wasn't the same Thai experience as the last time I was there but hey I felt good that I could walk out feeling successful.  Onto my meeting at District Hall complete with Cookies and Strawberries, Water and Coffee.  Thanks Kelly, you always take care of us!  I stuck to the black coffee and water.   I really looked forward to my dinner.  My son has been wanting what I eat all week.  We both had grilled salmon, sweet potato and salad.  He loved it and I thought it was pretty good too.  After dinner I went to the gym, not something I wanted to do but it was something I had to do.  Felt good.
