First day went FABULOUS!

Since I'm back on this thing, I spent last night laying out my meals/snacks for today. This was a super idea because I made healthy choices and didn't grab random things and run out the door.

Today turned out to be fairly ordinary.. work.. gym.. home. boring.

Anyways, the eats for today:

Breakfast: Oats with a serving of pure pumpkin (my first time trying them... kinda bland.. I need some suggestions on how to make them tastier): 2 points

that held me over until lunch.. YAY!

Lunch: turkey chili with some shredded cheddar: 7

Pre-gym snack: apple: 1

Dinner: Taco Salad (lettuce, tomatoes, 1 serving of black beans, a dollop of sour cream, and a teeny tiny spoonful of 93/7 chopped meat): 8

Total Points Used: 18/21 (allowed)

At the gym I did 30 mins on the elliptical and some abs. According to my heart rate monitor, I burned 287 calories! wohoooooo!

Thank all of you for your supportive comments from yesterday!
