TGIF and Deanna only has one more day to suffer through for the weekend..lol.. I love the zoo and I am sure your family is gonna have a great time tommorrow and Sunday will be fun for all. I got so much to do to get ready its just crazy. But we all still need to stay on track.. so lets get it done. Vitamins- done Water- working on increasing how much I drink.

Have to go to store.. ran out of milk for my shake. will try and drink that later today if I remember to do it. that adds 250 in cals. Exercise- 40 on eliptical, one hour with trainer, and pilates class. estimated calories burned 1000. Goal today... I have decided to toss all my ice cream out. I am loosing control with it and find that I am making the serving bigger and bigger each time. I actually didnt feel good last night after I ate some. Way to much ice cream so since I cant handle it the ice cream is gone. I ran out of pretzels and I am not buying anymore. My late night snacking is out of hand as well. I am snacking while I watch tv and that has to stop. So I am getting rid of all the things I snack on at night so it will stop.. wish me luck.

Hi Carla! I know what you mean about obsessing about your night time snack. I've found that I NEED a night time snack! I go to the gym M,W,F in the evening so by the time I'm done working out, I need and want something to eat. So, my requirements for my snack is that is has to be 200 calories or less. This gives me the option of a protein bar or a sugar free pudding and a 100 calorie pack, or a graham cracker with some peanut butter on it. Something of that nature. I find that I look forward to that snack and I manage to keep it fairly healthy by keeping it under 200 calories. Vitamins and water: working on it, I'm trying to increase my water consumption too! Food: B--3/4 cup Special K Protein Plus cereal with skim milk, 1/4 banana S--Danon Light & Fit yogurt L--1/2 slice thin crust pepperoni pizza slice S--protein bar D--meatloaf made with ground turkey, green beans S after gym--sugar free pudding cup and south beach cookies Exercise: Run, run, run! My 5K race is coming up in just over a week. YIKES! I am so freaking scared right now ... why did I sign up for that?! Anyway, my goal is to run for 3 miles tonight and walk for 1 mile. I gotta make sure I can get that 3 miles down because I'm determined to run the whole 5K (3.1 miles) and not have to walk. Goal: I'm going grocery shopping today and I'm determined NOT to buy any Easter candy! Ha, ha! I ate a Reeses peanut butter egg yesterday and it tasted so good! But, no more for me ... I've reached my quota I think! I just started my cycle and I have been craving chocolate like CRAZY! Deanna

This is your first race Deanna maybe just finishing should be your goal and then you can get your times in order, does that make sense? I think accomplishing this is amazing and I just know you can do it, don't think on it too much just do it! ANDI
