Morning Tess and Botts,

It's cold but not snowing out, at least not at the moment. Spring's supposed to be early this year if the groundhog is right! Been having a hard time getting to snap to work out but yesterday I found an easy workout on demand. Did 15 minutes but plan to increase as I'm able. My eats for today are:

B: egg in the basket
S: scrambled egg and cheese
L: cheeseburger salad
D: potato soup w ham and kielbasa
S: gonna try not to snack but If I do gonna make up some protein pudding

Have a good day all!

I sure hope you are right about Spring being early.  I am ready for it.  I think I will make me some protein pudding today too, that sounds yummy!

I'm going to Water Zumba at the Y tonight and I'm so excited. I remembered my bag, towel and everything!!! YEAH ME!! Sitting here looking at my vitamins. I'll take them with my snack in a little while. I hope to hear from the doc today on my labs from last work. She told me I could expect to hear from her today or tomorrow.

commute:        1/2 a bagel with ham, egg & cheese

snack:               greek yogurt w/ handful of pumpkin granola

Lunch:               Chef salad w/ ham, egg & cheese & french dressing  plus a couple of multigrain wheat thins

snack:               4 fig newtons and cheese (pre-YMCA)   grapes if I need something to hold me til dinner

Dinner:              Hamburger steak with peppers, onions and mushrooms

 

Goodness I'm eating a lot of cheese/dairy today. May need to tweak that a bit. Suggestions?

Just think of it as dairy day and go on your merry way! 

Yay on water zumba.  Maybe I should try it in water.  I sure don't look right doing it on dry land.

Good morning Tess and Botts:

Weighed in at 174.2. The weight has been fluctuating greatly. One day last week it read, 177! If I focus on these numbers too much, I will begin to lose my focus and I can't afford to let that happen. I have been mindful of salt intake, and drinking my water. I really don't know what it's going to take to see 170 lbs.

Anyway, it's cold here, had very light snow all day and night yesterday. It was very nice and pretty.  Possibly, a huge snowstorm on Friday! I really hope so! I'm still a kid at heart when it comes to snow events!!

Eats for today:

Coffee, in large amounts due to waking up with a headache (each cup made with 1 packet of raw sugar, and approx. 1/4 cup of 2% milk)

BREAKFAST: 1/2 cup of oatmeal, with cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of 2% milk. Maybe 1 tbsp of peanut butter.

LUNCH: CHEESE, Cheddar, and about 5 baby carrots

IN BETWEEN: WATER flavored with sugar free flavor packets....aim for 6 bottles (16.9 fl. oz)

DINNER: 1 scrambled egg with cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of salsa

Have a great day everyone!

You and I have got to stay off the scales for a week.  I have been up and down with 3 lbs. for over two weeks and don't know the reason why.  I don't think I am going to weigh again to next Monday.

I think I'll do that Tess.  I'll just focus on doing what I should be doing and see where the chips fall.

Thanks for your advice. Have a great day!
