Eating Dinner Later Was A Good Idea

So last night we did have that salmon but with a little change to the menu. I baked up a sweet potato and had that instead of a salad. So dinner consisted of:


Baked Honey-Mustard Salmon
Baked sweet potato
Steamed asparagus
And this is what it looked like:

I was really full afterwards and while I didn't go to bed early (I did go at about 10:15), we did eat about 6:30 so that made it where I didn't want a snack later, which was a good thing.  I don't normally like eating that late during the week, but considering that it keeps me full until I go to bed and not wanting something sweet, it is probably something I should keep in mind and do it at least 3 or 4 times a week.


Today so far I have had my coffee (the thought of giving up my Starbucks butterscotch latte gives me hives, and right now I'm on one of their star dashes where if I buy 5 coffees between now and the 14th before 11am, I'll get 15 extra bonus stars. I mean, I can't give up bonus stars! lol) and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on 100-calorie bread.  Dinner will be late again, but a little trickier because it is going to be a fried cream cheese/spinach/parmesan stuffed chicken breast.  We could bake it but I don't know.  If I pair it with just a salad I should be okay I think. (Yeah I'm justifying myself.) Oh well. As long as I don't have that snack I oughta be good.


I am also being really good about drinking water...but it is hard. I have never been one to just drink drink drink so this isn't fun and I have to force myself.  But at least I am.


So here's to late dinners and lots of water.
