OK, So I started tracking my weight with my biggest loser group. I am starting at 177.9lbs. Really hoping that I win this! So we are going to track our weight for 8 weeks, and the winner gets taken out to lunch by the losers! Either way it's a win. We decided these rules before walking around the mall; it was just too cold to walk around the Marina. So we walked twice around the perimeter of the mall which Susan said was 3/4 of a mile. Once we had lunch, the kids and I did 2 more laps. If I am not mistaken, that's 3 miles! I also want to mention, I love Slim Buns! They sell them at Winco, and are only 100 cal for both pieces! What an awesome and easy way to cut calories. Also, they are soooooo good when you toast them! Here is my food diary for today:
Breakfast:
Slim Bun toast
with 2Tbsp greek yogurt
Snack:
Bag of air popper popcorn
Lunch:
1 Tbsp Hummus
2 slices Mozzzarella
Slim Bun Toast
2 cups carrots
1 string cheese
24oz water
Dinner:
(Was craving Sushi, but headed out to Pho instead)
Vietnamese Noodle Bowl, gave most of the meat and noodles to the kids, ate all the veggies.
2.8 oz of Mmmmm Yogurt
24 oz water
Did 7 songs on Just Dance on the Wii, an easy way to burn some calories while the kids are awake. P loves "Raining Men" which is funny coming from a 5 year old, and V loves "Monster Mash" which he calls "MMM thas Gooo!" So two workouts in the day, not bad.
Think I did pretty good today, but I am still considering doing Weight Watchers, get a little more guidance. I have the POINTSfinder, and it helps, but I know that the points have recently changed. Just don't know if I can justify the price to dear husband, I did lose weight once by myself, I hope I can do it again!
you can do it autumn!! you are a strong woman, and you can have everything in your life that you want -- you just go for it. this should be no different. i know you can accomplish this and you are going to look fabulous in ireland!! i'm behind you all the way....and i bet i'll be treating you to lunch at the end of 8 weeks! :) but watch out, i'm on it too!! :)
ReplyDeleteWe are in it with you Autumn! I stared at a cookie while eating my apple for 20 mins today...sad. Didn't eat it though, and avoided helping any of my coworkers near the candy basket! I already miss the stress eating.....
