today is day 8 in a row of working out and boy do I feel stronger...I actually am beginning to look forward to working out. Added the weights to the workout this week and havent keeled over yet...lol
eating good too...staying in my calories, tho sometimes its hard to meet my caloric goal, I am eating lots more fruit/veggies, have desert maybe once a week.
getting my H2O in as well, think I have drunk 90% water in the past 10 days....maybe a few sweet teas thrown in.
I am gonna start tracking inches as well....next Monday will take measurements and go from there..
menu for today:
breakfast: honey nut cheerios
lunch: salad with turkey and hard boiled eggs
dinner: baked chicken thigh (sans skin), scalloped potatoes, corn, cantalope

weigh in
drum roll please........
lost 1.8 lbs since my last weigh in (last Monday).....not quite the 2.5 lbs I was aiming for but hey a loss is a loss
this week I will redo 30 day shred but this week I am using weights.I also did some adjusting to my calorie intake, I actually am bumping UP the calories I consume by a TAD, I was only at 1200/day which is the lowest you can consume safely....I wanted to be able to step it down once I have lost some weight.
Today's diet plan
breakfast: scrambled eggs and toast
lunch: salad with hard boiled egg and turkey, pears
dinner: baked pork chops, scalloped potatoes and green beens
snack: cinnamon kettle corn
gotta make sure I am in a healthy calorie range!!!

tomorrow is weigh in day hoping for some good results
I want to be able to wear a dress for my 15 year anniversary

another exhausting day,
today was a busy but fun filled day
had to run to the grocery store, I really despise grocery shopping but I gotta eat...good thing I have kids to bring in all the bags...lol....I think that just may be the reason I had kids!!!
then it was off to the movies with the girls, the boys wanted no part of our movie choice, "Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer"....omg what a cute movie, after the movie, we went to Target and Ulta to pick up a few things
then home for a yummy dinner of pot roast, mashed potatoes, veggies and applesauce, I am trying to incorporate fruit and veggies into all dinners to get more nutrients
worked out, although I really didnt want to, but I did notice that it was getting easier and easier
family movie night tonight was a classic, Stand By Me
all in all a good day

full day and its nowhere close to being over
run, run, run thats the theme for today
got up, ate some breakfast (leftover pizza from last night, but its all good, still gonna be within calories)
took the kids back to school shopping, clothes only, supplies will be later...too bad the cash I dropped didnt translate into calories....it would have been a boatload.....lol
came home, did my workout, getting easier and easier, thank goodness
now off to cook dinner, gonna have tacos, corn muffins, green beens and cantalope. will eat before work and then at work will have 2 turkey sandwiches and more cantalope.
work better be better than last night...I walked into Murphey's Law yesterday....why on earth schedule a meeting that will take almost 1 hour during med pass time....and it went downhill from there, was SO HAPPY to clock out last night.

lactic acid SUCKS
lol
so day 2 ate well but could NOT work out....heck walking was a chore.....pretty bad when you are limping due to working out. I asked Jillian to take it easy on me but no she had other plans.
Today, so far so good, had toast for breakfast....that might not seem like a lot, for me, a person who doesnt eat breakfast, its HUGE!!!
Am about to put salsa bbq chicken (sounds weird, tastes delish) in the oven along w/mashed potatoes and carrots...am gonna eat dinner before I go to work....trying to do the whole breakfast as king, lunch as prince, dinner as pauper, just cant do the breakfast part.
Dinner (or lunch) will be turkey sandwiches and some cut up fruit
I did my workout today, not quite as hard today, but lets see how my legs react tomorrow
