Buh Bye Little Scotties

Starting tomorrow, it's back to basics.  For me that means Intermittent Fasting and no sugar.

In spite of my best intentions, I've been slacking lately and eating a lot of garbage.  

So starting tomorrow, this is the plan:

During the week, I'll only have coffee and a light nutritious breakfast, which will provide me energy to help me workout at lunch time.  And then I won't eat anything until dinner.

So this isn't intermittent fasting (in the strictest sense of eating for 8 hours and fasting for 16), but I've been finding myself snacking in the afternoon at work.  And at lot of that snacking has been sugar-y stuff.

Black licorice Scottie Dogs have been my vice lately.  I've been getting them at Tuesday Morning.  I walk in to TM to buy towels for the guest room and walk out with several packages of Scotties.  I can't resist!  They are so cute and taste so good...and go down so easy.  Anyway, no more Tuesday Morning and no more Scotties.
So delicious but so dangerous!
So if I eat something nutritious in the morning, work out around noon, don't eat anything in the afternoon, and then eat dinner at night...that should work out to just about the right amount of calories for weight loss. 

In any case, it should take away the mindless afternoon eating.  No matter what, that will be a good thing.
