Day 12 & Home for the Holidays

I'm back home in peninsular Malaysia for the holidays. I'm so excited but I'm also a bit worried. The past 2 weeks, I've been able to concentrate on eating well because I've been cooking for myself. However, now that I'm back home, it's going to be tough.

Just today, I ate rice - 2 meals in a row! 

I don't know if I should be more upset about the fact that I'm not being paleo or because I've eaten over my calorie limit by 500 calories. 

I've been tracking my food intake with the sparkpeople app and it's really been great. It's helped me to really learn how to control my portions. I've also noticed that if I'm eating good and quality food, instead of the usual processed rubbish, I can eat a healthy portion that makes me full and satisfied without going over my calorie limit of 1,500 calories / day. 

True enough, today,  because I ate a lot of processed food, my calorie intake really shot up. This is even with me eating only half my plate. 

There's no point crying over spilt milk. I did enjoy eating the rice. It was nasi lemak. How can I not enjoy it? Anyway, tomorrow is another day and there's still room for improvement. 

I just have to remember that I can do this and I can be successful in this.
