I am feeling a little discouraged this morning, the blood pressure went up a little today instead of down. But being away from home over the weekend isn’t as easy to get all my vegetables in. Or maybe it is because of the lightly salted tortilla chips. Or maybe it is because of my crazy hormones still. I don’t know why it went up, but I am still fighting on.

My lunch and dinner was the same yesterday, but here are the pics:

Same reading

I was surprised I got the same blood pressure reading this morning as yesterday morning. For breakfast I had a couple of whole grain cinnamon banana muffins with strawberries. Lunch was a sweet potato with cottage cheese, Colby jack cheese and some corn chips. Then I had a panini for dinner with black beans on the side. 126/77

Slow and steady

For breakfast yesterday I had whole wheat toast with natural peanut butter and melon. Lunch was the last of my left over spinach lasagna with a pickle. Dinner I sautéed lower sodium turkey bacon with peppers and onions, then wilted spinach in the pan. I then stirred in three cheese tortellini and topped it with some Parmesan cheese. 125/82

Back step

I hate back stepping. I was doing so good. I had the same breakfast yesterday as the day before, therefore I didn’t bother taking a picture. Then lunch was a spinach and ice berg salad with tomato, turkey bacon and an egg, sprinkled with shredded cheese. But supper was my back step. I had promised weeks ago before my 21 days began to go out to dinner with my family for a celebration. Unfortunately it was at a restaurant with no healthy foods at all. No salads, no veggie burger, no grilled chicken. My only option was a hamburger or hot dog with fries. So I opted for a hamburger which I split with my daughter, and we all shared fries. So I did very well with portion control, but it was still filled with salt. So my blood pressure is up a little this morning. But it is life, and I will pick myself back up, brush the dust off myself and march foreword. 130/79
