Good Morning everyone.  Well this week has really been successful for me.  Upping my exercise has really been a plus for me. After one week I have lost 3 lbs. Yay!  I hope everyone else has seen some success or at least some maintenance.  Here are my plans for today.

7:00 AM walked for 75 minutes in a cool breeze of 46 degrees

prebreakfast:  coffee and miralax
breakfast:  unjury protein shake
snack:  protein bar quest brownie
lunch:  pure protein chocolate chip
snack:  morrazella cheese stick

4:00 PM 45 minutes walking

dinner:  chicken stirfry
snack:  protein pudding
bedtime:  1/2 bananas

One week down and 7 weeks to go.  Keep up the posting and have a great Sunday.

 Week One was not the stellar week I thought it would be for me! Things fell apart on Thursday and went downhill from there...not bad-awful, but not how I had planned. Anyway, Monday is a good psychological restart for me, although I am being mindful today, as well.  Will see you in the cardio cafe tomorrow evening!!  

I did good all week except for yesterday, my problem is not knowing what I will have for lunch and dinner! Breakfast and snacks are easy, so I need to work on the rest. I am also goin to up my exercise, I am going to walk/jog 5 miles a day. I have a 16 yr.old daughter who is trying to lose weight and actually doing really well so I need to be a good example for her! So as a promise to myself I am going to walk 5 miles a day. I'm 3 years out and am 7-9 pounds up from my lowest ( depending on the day and time of month) I will gladly take that any day compared to what I used to weigh! However, I don't want anything to get out of control so I am going to fight this tooth and nail.

I am planning on a walk later this afternoon. We switched cable company's so I was up early to tidy the house before the Dish Network guy showed up at 8.
1030-fried egg, rf cheese, 100 cal english muffin
1200-pear
1300-black bean soup, turkey and rf swiss on a sandwich thin
1400-skinny cow candy
1800-salmon, sweet potato, fresh string beans
2100-?greek yogurt and strawberries?
on track with water and vitamins

Well, I was doing OK and then I fell into the clutches of a pint of Belgian Chocolate.  Not to worry,
I'm paying the price---urgh. I only ate about a cup of it, not the entire pint like I used to do in the Bad Old Days. I think I'm going to go dump the darned thing in the trash.

Well, back on the Right Path for dinner.



 

Hi everyone. I didn't post yesterday I got home around midnight from the convention I have been at and was exhausted. For the most part things have gone okay up until last night when I got home. I ate a bunch of dry roasted peanuts, pumpkin seeds and a couple of potato chips. The same thing has happened today. Now this is light years from the binge fest that has been going on lately but I feel shame and remorse.

I have my food written down and committed for tommorrow. I wanted to post and let you know where I am at. I am not dropping out.

Not the greatest day for eating and doing my waters.

B-small leftover salad
S-sunflower seeds, tootsie pops
L-1/2 of a pork chop , salad, cauliflower, cheese, ranch dressing
S-watermelon, tootsie pop
D- same as lunch
S-tootsie pop, almonds

Did run 3 miles though and I avoided eating the cupcakes my kids made

I really need some ideas on how to up my calorie and protein intake and lower my carbs! ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Missed posting yesterday. Sorry. Breakfast was banana, coffee protein drink. Lunch was chicken breast, small green salad, dinner was a bowl of cheerios in skim milk. Wasn't feeling too great, legs still very bad from Saturday walking tour. Bad girl did eat the top off a blueberry muffin.
