Slowly starting back on track

Today I feel a bit disappointed with my day, and yet, it wasn't terrible. The same as the last two months, and the reason I'm getting back on track.

I wrote down everything I ate today. I didn't snack between meals or after supper. But looking back, I see that I didn't eat enough calories, I ate over processed carbohydrates in the form of white bread (and they weren't even tasty!), and I had almost 1400 mg of sodium which is in the upper limit of adequate intake for an adult WITHOUT high blood pressure  (which I'm struggling with). Recommended Sodium Intake
And hilariously, even though I didn't eat enough calories, I went over my protein requirements (without milk, eggs, cheese or meat!) because I had protein at every meal.

So tomorrow, my goal will be to pay attention more and get a better balance in my food intake.

I tried to do my belly dance workout  today, which I normally view from my computer through my Xbox. Unfortunately, my Xbox and my computer decided on the weekend that they didn't want to talk anymore, (I was hopeful that the problem had just corrected itself overnight, but apparently that's not how it works!), so I have to upload my workout videos to a flash drive for tomorrow.  I went out for a walk this afternoon, but literally, as soon as I was out the front door, hubby came home, so I only walked around the block. I honestly only got 2671 steps for the whole day. It makes me sad to see how sedentary I've become. Tomorrow I'll do a workout.

I'm feeling really bloated from the treats of the weekend, and I realize that they will show on the scale. As much as that hurts, it will be the truth. Truth is motivation.

Hubby is out at his free poker league tonight, so I'm trying to plan some meals out. For example: do I make veggie burgers or pancakes with the golden beet I have? .....
