Tuesday

Well I bombed out yesterday. The gym was closed, so I planned on coming home to do yoga, then I got distracted by something and it never happened. I did good on eating though. Breakfast: 2 eggs over easy, 2 pieces of turkey bacon, one sliver of locally made bread toasted without butter. Snack was some cottage cheese. I had a chicken gyro on whole wheat with lettuce and one T. of tzaziki sauce, and a banana. Snacking later on: a cheesetick, lots of tamari almonds, an apple with peanut butter and lots of water and iced tea. Dinner was one large helping of my red lentil dahl on rice with a chicken breast. I snacked on a few bites of my son's popcorn later.
Today was a little better. I made it to the gym for 30 minutes of treadmill, the other machines were busy so I left. Breakfast was a whole wheat bagel with one scrambled egg, one slice of turkey bacon, and one T. of fat free cream cheese. I had a clementine and a healthy nut bar for snack and a few grapes. I finished off the half a cup of the leftover dahl, which was more like eating soup. I also had a hard boiled egg, and some turkey lunch meat wrapped around a cheesestick. Snack to follow includes some more tamari almonds, maybe some sunflower seeds, and a pear which should hold me until dinner. I have my water aerobics class tonight which I am so looking forward too. Its always a good time and my friends are very supportive right now, which I really need. Have a super day and I will try to check in tomorrow. :)

hello ...

Well it was a tough week last week..I am aiming for more blogging and better eating. If you read my other blog you can see what I am eating for dinner. Like I have said before, it is my goal to avoid carbs during the day and enjoy them mostly with dinner. Since we went to breakfast this morning, all that went out the window. I had hash browns with salt and ketchup, 2 eggs, chicken fried steak and a few bites of biscuits and gravy, although this meal was shared with my son it was still some hefty eating. My husband for some reason thought that cupcakes was a nice valentine gift...while I had one, the rest are for them. There are 2 left and let me just say it is torture just knowing they are there. I am putting one in my son's lunch for tomorrow, and hopefully Gene will eat the other one. Goal for this week: fruit for snacks! here's hoping.. I want to maybe do more in the gym this week, if there is an eliptcal machine available tomorrow I am aiming for 5-10 minutes, in addition to my 20 minutes on the treadmill.

on and off

Okay so I have been off of the wagon, but I am on now!
We went to chilli's yesterday where I stuffed myself silly. And I have leftovers to boot. I am having lunch at an Indian place today, but I promise to behave myself. I need some hot stuff to scare away this cold that is haunting me. I did 20 minutes on the treadmill today and a breakfast of: coffee with fat free half and half and hazelnut flavored agave, two easy over easy and two pieces of very small sausage links.
I put some fat pants in the donation bin, cause they are too big for me! Many people have remarked that I have lost weight, but I am not getting on a scale anytime soon. I will just aim for a size 16 in the next year or so, then I would at least be able to shop at more main stream stores. I dread this week..cause Valentines day is one of the junkiest holidays, and I love me some chocolate.
