Days 1,2 & 3

Day One
Tuesday

I've been waking up really late the past few days and did not eat breakfast, so by the time I got back from class I was starving. I sometimes have a disastrous habit of throwing together weird concoctions.
So I threw into a pot some potatoes, mixed vegetables, onion, and pasta and then covered it in pasta sauce.


It was okay, but nothing fantastic.

I had a lot of sweet cravings all day so I finally ate a Mini Moon Pie. It was actually only 120 calories.


For Dinner I decided to make myself a massive salad. I actually ended up just eating it out of the mixing bowl I prepared it in, lol.
It consisted of romaine lettuce, spinach, chick peas, cucumbers, and tomatoes. I used light ranch dressing.

It was pretty good, and I managed to eat most of it.

Later that night, I got the urge to eat some sugary cereal. Normally I try not to keep it around but my friend came over a week or two ago and left her "Envirokidz" version of cocoa pebbles. I actually liked them a lot better than the original.


Forgive me for not having the calorie counts for this week. I have them on my Ipod, but Im about to fall asleep at the moment, haha.

Day 2
Wednesday

Breakfast:
Had One Cup of Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds and One cup 1% milk

Lunch


Dinner
This was actually one of the best things I have made lately. It's just a chicken breast cut up with mushrooms, caramelized onions, and wild rice. Also steamed veggies with smart balance on top. This meal was so filling and savory. I loved it.


Day 3
Thursday

Breakfast:
Honey Bunches of Oats again

Lunch:
Basically what I made for dinner the night before minus the rice and plus zucchini. Pretty good but not as good as before.


Dinner:
I didnt really have dinner per se. I intended to go see Toy Story 3D with friends and have some popcorn. Instead we ended up at Starbucks where I got one of the absolute WORST things I could have gotten; a tall strawberries and cream frapp.
To make matter worse, my friends were both set on getting pizza. Since I didnt have any money on me, I had to take what I was being given, lol.
I had two pieces of cheese pizza from Pizza Hut.

I also had regular coke today. I kinda failed towards the end of the day.

Oh, well. They do say you gotta keep your metabolism guessing, right?? =/ lol

Day #1

I planned on posting a nice post with pics of everything I ate today but photobucket, flickr, and tiny pic all wont load my pics. Ill catch up tomorrow. Sorreh.

Long Time No Blog.....

So....my weight loss has been at a standstill for about two months now and I am just done with having to look at the same stupid number on the scale.
I started a birth control again and I think some of it is because of that, but I am not trying. I have been binging every now and then, and just generally making bad decisions. Im going to try really really hard to take pics of my meals to help me stay accountable. Its just a matter of remembering to carry my camera with me!

Anyway, tomorrow is going to be Day 1 of my starting over. I want to get rid of some more weight before the dreaded holidays kick in.

Stay tuned for tomorrow....

Gained Two Pounds

Ugh. I think I really derailed myself when I was on my period. Its not a huge deal, but Im doing this SO slowly and taking steps backwards is NOT okay with me.
I have to change. I HAVE to do better. I will NOT see the 170's again. Its not happening! I wont let it!
Here I come fat, go get your damn armor, cause this is war.

Some of Today's Food

This is a typical lunch for me. I REALLY need something to replace my chips. For some reason I really feel like I need to have them but they are pretty bad on points. Oh well. Maybe some pretzels?



And now for midnight snacking...

Found these at trader joe's today. 2 1/2 cups are 140 calories or 3 ww pts.


And then some garbanzo beans. I love these things.

Struggling Again...

I just cant seem to pull myself together this week. Im just really doing terribly. I feel disgusting and bloated and I just generally feel gross. I can blame some of that on "Aunt Flo" but I know some of it is my own doing. Im SO scared to gain my weight back. It took me FOREVER to lose 10 lbs, I refuse to gain it back!
Anyway, hopefully I can start over tomorrow successfully. Im ready to feel good again

It's been a while.

Im making slow progress, but at least I havent taken any steps backwards.

Right now I am at 162.4. So, Ive offically lost over 10 lbs and I can finally feel it on my body. My work pants are falling off! Its weird how all of the sudden one day you feel the weight fall off! I hadnt felt any skinnier until now. Im really gonna start locking this stuff down. Im happy to be making progress, but I want to make progress a little faster than I have been. Im gonna start working out more and cracking down on my diet.
Im also going to be taking a nutrition class at school this semester and if I like it enough I may change my major. Who knows? =)

Anyway, I really still wanna update this more often with pics and stuff. Life just got way too busy.
