Morning, Karla.  I did fine yesterday except for water.  My supervisor sitting with me totally messed up my drinking schedule. lol  Funny how little things can mess you up.  Also still fighting this stupid stomach bug...better but still cautious about what to eat.  Have my lunch packed & dinner since I have to work till 9:30.  Vitamins in for the morning & afternoon vitamins in my purse.  Will work on water today.  Also have a protein shake in my bag for the morning.  I didn't get on the scale this morning.  Will probably wait until Saturday a.m..

Hugs & Love,

Jeri

Good morning!  Things are going well for me so far this week.  My weight is holding steady and doing well with my vitamins this week.  I'm going to the gym tonight to workout with my trainer.  Only a few more weeks left in this program and then it's up to me... which is a bit scary but I want to try out some of the other things the gym has to offer.  I'd really like to sign up for their pilates class next!!!  Until last night I thought I might need a fill and then after a few bites last night I had to stop!!!   Sometimes this fickle band drives me nuts!!!  I might go ahead and schedule an appt. for a few weeks from now because most of the time I can tell I can eat as much as I want (if I let myself...which I don't) and feel very little restriction!!!  It might just be TOM this week.... hence why my weight loss is at a standstill this week.

Okay have to finish getting kids ready for school and scoot off to work!!!  Have an "extraordinary" day!

Did well yesteday until I couldn't sleep and got up in the middle of the night.  Broke down and snacked truely because i was hungry not mindless so since it was after 3:00am I am going to count that towards todays calories.
Yesterday's totals:
Calories-1219, Carbs.-126.7, Protein-104.1, water-72oz
Exercise-ran 7 miles burned 1083 calories.
Took all vitamins.

Today's Plan:
Stay around 1200 calories
Get my water in.
Do upper body workout at gym.
Be really good on calories today so I can enjoy myself at abuelo's tonight.  It will be a reward if I can do it.  I will see where my calories are and then plan my meal at abuelo's before I leave the house.

That's my plan.  Feeling a little more in control today.
Making it happen!

I'm not perfect but I'm me and that is good enough!

I did well yesterday.  Scales were down 1.6.  I can live with that. 

Have my protein shake in, vits started and a bottle of water down.  Looking like a good day here!

Yesterday was a terrible day for me calorie-wise.  I did so bad I can't even type the number. I had lunch at Olive Garden with Hubby and DD and had salad and breadsticks.  I knew the breadsticks were bad cuz of the carbs but who knew the salad dressing was SO HORRIBLE.  Apparently I consumed about 400 calories just in salad dressing.  Then last nigh****ching TV, I ate a bunch of very heavily salted pistachio nuts.  My protein count was 112 but needless to say I'm up a pound this morning.

I did work-out twice yesterday. Once at the gym and one go round with my Wii personal trainer "Maya".  I'm here to tell you Maya is worse than going to the gym.  I ended up sitting in the hot tub between the two to soak my aching muscles.

So today is a NEW day and the plan will be to pump up the water to get rid of the salt and to focus back on healthy eating.  Plan to exercise x 2 again today.

Breakfast: protein drink

Lunch:  ham and cheese on mini croussant

Dinner:  Sirloin steak and salad

Snack: protein bar

Morning!  I am up and going already today.  Couldn't sleep so I got up and came into work.  Weight was down another pound this morning!  WooHoo!  I am off of soups and back to real food.  I feel much better today.  So, Steph do you like Maya?  She can work your butt off!  Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Glad to hear you're feeling better and woohoo on losing another pound.  Yep, Maya is kicking my butt.  She finds muscles I didn't even know I had.  The weird thing is I always pick "80's music" and I swear it's "techno."  I wi**** had better music to work out with.

I totally agree.  The music stinks. I still use my Zune. I am glad you like it.
