Alrighty....

So, I'm getting serious again. For real. I promise :-)

I will start taking photos of my food every day and hopefully that will hold me accountable... knowing that what I eat will be posted on my blog. We will see....

I have a trip coming up mid-April and would like to lose 10 lbs before then. That is totally possible if I eat right and exercise.


Here we goooooooooooooooooooo!

I'm baaaack

Hellooooo... anyone home??

The 2nd round of Biggest Loser starts tomorrow and I can't say I'm all that excited about it :-), but I will be excited when I'm wearing a smaller size clothes.

This round will go for 3 months and this time, I'm going to have to do it without my exercise routine of Curves. I just can't get over there to work out. I will have to use the Wii Fit and treadmill for the exercise part this time around.

I will change my ticker information tomorrow night after we weigh in and get our official starting weight tomorrow morning.

Saying goodbye

I'm shutting this blog down... no one else is really blogging anymore and I don't seem to have the time to do it either.

I started this journey at the beginning of February and I've lost 25 lbs.. I'm pretty proud of that fact :-) Will I stop trying to be healthy and lose weight? No way! I've come too far to stop. I want to make it to by 150 goal and I have about 25 more pounds until I get there. Yeah, it's probably going to take a while. I should at least be 1/2 way to that goal now, but I've not been consistent with my eating and exercise habits... but I'm not gaining either!

Training day & NKOTB

Breakfast:
Egg & Cheese biscuit (Chic Fil A), small diet coke

Lunch:
Little Bacon Cheeseburger, few fries, diet coke (5 Guys Burgers and Fries)

Dinner:
Fried Shrimp, Baked Potato, 2 mixed drinks



Exercise:
walking to the concert and back (it was a pretty good distance :-))


I never do well while I am out with a group of friends, so this is NO surprise to me :-)

Breakfast:
Small bowl of cheese grits (??)

Lunch:
Subway Turkey Sandwich (6)
Trail Mix (3)
Dinner:
Mushroom Pizza (7) Desert (4)



Exercise:
30 minute - circuit training


I have points left over, but with not adding in those grits I had for breakfast, I more than likely went over. Good thing there are 35 "free" point every week :-)

Tuesday Menu

Breakfast:
Strawberry Yogurt (1) 60 cal. Coffee w/cream and sugar (probably a million points)

Lunch:
Steak Tips Portabello (3)

Snack:
Reduced Fat Chez-Its (4)

Dinner:
Grapes, assorted foods at Tastefully Simple party (??)


Exercise:
30 minute - circuit training

I'll just say I probably met my points goal today :-)

really? oh my goodness!

No exercise + Crazy eating = another pound. Duh.

So, today... back to counting points and exercise. Today was easy, tomorrow? I'm going to my Sister in law's Tastfully Simple party and I hear the food is really really good! I may eat before I go :-) Wednesday should be okay, but Thursday is New Kids on the Block with friends. Pray I can stay on my plan for this week. It's really hard for me when I'm other people that are eating whatever they want.

So, to keep me accountable to myself (?), I'm going to post my menu from today and will do this every night this week.
Monday

Breakfast:
Blueberry Yogurt (1) 60 cal.
Lunch:
Fish & Pasta (6) 290 cal.
Chocolate Jello cup (2) 100 cal.
Snack:
string cheese (2) 80 cal.
Dinner:
PB Sandwich (7) 290 cal. Apple slices (1) 70 cal.
Exercise:
30 minute - circuit training

I even had 3 points left over today! With exercising, I think you get extra points to use, but I'm not going to use those until I have to.... maybe Thursday night :-)
