Day 5

Starting Weight: 221
Today's Weight: 217.2
Total Loss: 3.8 pounds

So it looks like the Dominos may have caught up a little with me afterall.  It is a gain today but less than a pound so I'm not too worried about it.  I did really well for most of the day today mostly because I was just so busy that I didn't have time to even think about food.  I didn't pass the movie theater test though.  I was really hungry and we weren't going to have dinner until after 7pm so I was trying to find a healthy option on the menu and couldn't come up with anything so went with what I like.  I got the nachos which was probably about 800 calories had I eaten the whole thing but I stayed concious of the serving size while I was eating and stopped when I'd had enough that I felt I could wait until dinner.  I'm still going to estimate high on the calories for this because I'm really not sure what the count is. 

Dinner was a breeze because we went somewhere familiar and I knew the calories for my favorites.  I ended up getting a 1/2 version of my favorite salad (Red Robin's Apple Harvest Chicken Salad is the bomb!) and cut out most of the chicken so was able to get that down to about 300 calories.  Topped it off with iced tea and ended the day on a high note.  I skipped the coffees/ice cream etc after dinner and almost had an emergency garlic naan stop later in the night but made the right choice and stayed on the highway. 

Now its 11pm and I'm pretty tired and since I have to clean my entire house tomorrow for a move out inspection with my landlord on Monday I am going to have a very long and tiring day.

Good night and thanks for reading!
