Yeah, late again. I had some issues. We got a new laptop and it would connect to the wireless internet and it was just being dumb. But all fixed and now I can use my own computer insted of having to try to share with 4 other people. YAAAAYYY.
So I weigh in at Weight Watchers on Sundays, and this sunday was another 1 lb loss, so I am down 5.4 lbs in 6 weeks. YAY again!!! I was hopeing for 2 lb loss a week, but I cant complain with one.

I am still fighting excercize. I hate, hate, hate the thought of having to do it, but once I am doing it I actually slightly enjoy it......slightly. My WW goal this week is to excercize twice this week. I think I can do that. twice wont be sooo bad. I will be going for a mile-ish walk today. cause yes, it is beautiful outside and by beautiful I mean it is 35 degreese!!
Since I weigh in on Sunday mornings I consider sunday my sunday funday. I usually eat decent, but indulge in things I normally wouldnt eat, then I have all week to work it off. So I wont go over what I ate yesterday.....yikes! I have a baby shower and a tupperware party and both had snacky foods.
Today is a new day and I am doing good!

IM BACK!!!!
Yeah, I'm back. So I lost my blog page, for some reason I have 2 accounts and kept logging into the old one and I couldnt find my page...I finally got a hold of customer service and I had opened 2 accounts at some point. Nice.
I started back up on Weight watchers and hae lost 4.4 lbs. It's quite amazing though because I feel a heck of a lot lighter. Its amazing that if you cut back on salt, processed foods, fast foods and/or soda how much of a difference it makes. I'm gonna post a before and after picture. I do have to say I am quite impressed.
Here's my food for today. I did a pretty crappy job on my selection of food today, I have a massive headache due to our mattress.
FYI: WW = Weight watcher points value)
Breakfast: (3 WW pts total)
2 cups of black coffee
2 Tbsp liquid creamer. *Note I found that it is 1 WW point for 1 Tbsp of powder creamer and 1 WW point for 2 Tbsp of liquid, so I now go for the liquid and add 1 Tbsp into each cup. Saves me one point a day!).
1 WW english muffin toasted wiht 2 Tbsp WW cream cheese (2 WW pts)
Lunch: (7 WW pts total)
1 WW strawberry banana yogurt (1 WW pt). Now I normally do NOT eat their product all day long, i just have a headache and grab whatever is easiest)
1 Garlic Chicken White Pizza Lean pocket (really good)!!!!!! (5 WW pts)
1/2 jumbo grapefruit (1 WW pt)
1 glass of water and 4 IBProphen. be gone headache!!!!
Dinner: I am planning chicken. I will post later tonight.

Day 8 and 9
Well it's turning out to be harder to post everyday that I expected. I've been writing everything down so I know what I eat, so that's all that really matters I guess.
I still have 'pizza gut' from this past week. I look prego. It's not pretty.
Yesterday went really well. Hubby has been on my like a vulture so I have to get approval before I eat. Sounds weird but I asked him to do it, so it's my own fault.
Day 8 (saturday)
Breakfast: oatmeal
One package of Quaker Oats high fiber Maple & Brown sugar oatmeal. I only got to eat 1/2 the bowl. There was a spider on the ceiling and I had joe swat it down...well our lovely popcorn ceiling fell into my oatmeal and it was no longer pleasing.
Lunch: Chicken sandwich
2 slices of Sara Lee 45 cal bread
1/2 of a chicken breast, sliced and heated
1/2 tomato, sliced
lettuce
It was pretty dry but o.k. I did eat it and was pretty unhappy about it, but proud of myself for not caving in.
Dinner: Pork chops
1/2 pork chop with mushrooms
small spoonful of scalloped potatoes (boxed)
Snack:
bag of 94% fat free popcorn, 1 cup of fat free chocolate ice cream
midnight snack: ham sandwich
2 slices of 45 Cal sara lee bread
1 slice of reduced fat cheddar cheese
3 slices of ham
I was hungry before bed, my tummy was growling like crazy. I should have eaten more for dinner.
DAY 9
Breakfast:
1 cup hashbrowns cooked in EVOO
1 cup of milk
I REALLY dont like eggs, so why keep eating them????

Day 6, slim fast and beyond?
Today I am starting off light after a crappy dinner choice last night. Don't get me worng, the food was great. It was just too much of it. It was my daughters birthday and my husband and I wanted to take her out.
Breakfast: Slim fast
*1 cup of milk
*1 scoop of slimfast optimum
*1 banana
Mix all in blender, add ice cubes and enjoy.
I actually like slimfast, and I like to drink it when I had a rough day the day before.
Excrecize is not on my list to do today. I woke up with a headache. I must have slept upside down or something. Or maybe it was the carb coma I was in last night.

DAY 4, same old...same old
Day 4 seems the same as any other day. I'm not starving and im not crabby. The hardest part of the day seems to be what to have for lunch. Breakfast went well today and dinner is planned, but lunch is the kicker. I bought the new Weight Watchers winter 2010 recipe book, I'm hopeing to get some ideas to freshen up my stale lunch menu.
Breakfast today was:
One whole egg fried on toast with hashbrowns. AND 2 cups of coffee with creamer
I used:
1 whole egg.
1 tsp olive oil for frying
2 slices of Sara Lee 45 cal and delightful bread.
4 sprays on each slice of I.C.B.I.N.B spray
1 cup of hashbrowns, also fried in the same oil.
The hashbrowns were fantastic! I love hashbrowns, and if cooked correctly they are very low in fat and calories!! (Just please, please dont put ketchup on them....sick!)
**I also want to note that you will probably find the word 'with' misspelled A LOT. i am trying to correct it as I go along, but for some reason my fingers just go all crazy spelling that word.

Well today started of great, and alll is going great so far!!! It's amazing that eating good for one day can make you feel so light, so not bloated and happy!!
I never did end up working out last night, but it's on my agenda today after I put my little boy down to nap.
I decided I am going to try a new approach. I read it's best to eat a huge breakfast, a large lunch and small dinner. So here I go:
Breakfast: 2 egg whites (I use Crystal Farms 'all whites' from the carton) along wiht a few slices of green pepper and onion, all scrambled together and topped wiht a VERY small amount of shredded co-jack cheese. I also had 2 slices of Sara Lee 45 calories and delightful bread topped with a few pumps of I Cant Believe It's Not Butter in the spray bottle. AND coffee.
I was so full after breakfast, but I felt great. I usually don't eat breakfast, but I forced myself today and I was glad.
Lunch: 1/2 Arby's Beef and cheddar sandwich, 1/2 cup canned green beans and 1/2 of a large banana. Yeah, yeah I know...arby's probably wasn't the greatest choice, but I cut it in half so I feel fine about my decision. Oh, and it was fabulous!!!
Dinner to come later, along with maybe some pictures and a recipe or two.

Day 2, ugh.
Well yesterday went sort of well and today was ok too.
My hubby and I had dinner plans last night so we went to Las Margaritas mexican restaurant. I was good and had 2 chicken fajitias, a few bites of refried beans and a margarita. I have allergies to limes, so I couldn't drink the margarita. Then I ordered the fried ice cream...but I shared, with 3 people!!!
Here's todays menu:
Breakfast: small bolwl of honey Nut chex and some milk. One cup of coffee.
Lunch: Arby's All American Roast Burger, no cheese, no bacon, no mayo.
Snack: One chocolate cupcake with whipped topping & a scoop of ice cream. It was my daughters birthday party today.
Dinner: Applebees Garlic Herb Chicken off the Weight Watchers Menu.
I feel quite bloated today, probably from lunch. I plan of working out before bed tonight, Leslie Sansone 1 milk walk, here I come!!!!!

The old me: Day 1.
Here is a picture of the "old" me. Ugh. This was taken this morning and I am really depressed looking at it. I have a 9 month old Baby boy, and I look like I did the week after giving birth.
Here are my stats...If you must know ; )
Weight: 143 lbs.
Height: 5 ft 2 inches.
Goal weight: 130 lbs.
Pounds to lose: 13 lbs.
yikes!! I better get moving!
Oh, here's lunch for ya:
*2 slices of Sara Lee 45 calories and delightful Multi-grain bread. I HIGHLY reccommend switching to the light bread, you can have 2 slices for the same amount of calories that are in 1 regular slice..and I just love my bread.
*1/3 can of tuna on top of toast
*1Tbsp Real Mayo. Now Normally I get the Mayonaise made with Olive Oil or Light Hellmans mayo, but I was out, so I went for the real thing.
*1 cup of progresso light soup. I try to have soup wiht lunch and dinner, and eat it first. It is filled with veggies and keeps me from eating too much of things I shouldn't. Also, I always get light or high fiber soup, or make my own. I have a great Weight Watchers recipe for soup that is good and is worth ZERO points, if any of you follow Weight Watchers. I use that recipe a lot.
* 4 Saltine crackers
I am really struggling to stay away from soda pop. I LOVE soda!!! I managed to cut down to 1 can a day but I am trying to cut down to maybe 2 or 3 cans a week.
Today is the day!
today is the first day of the rest of my life..ha ha ok not really but I finally decided to take care of my body and get healthy!!!
I am going to start posting my eating and excercize habits in hope that maybe I can get motivated to get eat right and excercize. So everyday I am going to post my food and excercize.
Today for breakfast I had a bowl of Honey Nut Chex and 1% milk with two cups of coffee. Normally I eat a larger breakfast but I had a headache and really didn't feel like eating.
Also, I started excercizing today!! I did Leslie Sansone Walk Away the Pounds 1 Mile walk. I was great and I highly reccommend it to anyone who is a beginner!
