OK a week and a half later

So, it's Wednesday and I am down to 210 pounds! I have been eating well for the most part. Greg, myself and the kids attempted the gym - but the daycare was closed, so we drove home. I was bummed. I ended up meeting a friend who is into nutrition. We walked and talked about a healthier lifestyle. She gave me a lot of helpful tips. We walked the grocery store and she helped me purchase the right types of food. I am excited. I am going to have yogurt with fruit and granola tomorrow.. anyway, I have been busy with work so that is why I haven't posted.. school and studying also keep me busy! Until the next time 8)

Sunday

I had arough weekend.. I am not going to lie..holiday prties, take out from the Cheesecake factory.. but I didn't get the cheesecake - however there was a lot of rice in my dinner.. then I went to a holiday party that served only pastries and pizza for food.. nothing healthy 8) Today, I am trying to get back on track. I had a WW breakfast and a veggie sub from Subway..I have been on my feet all day getting excersize.. it is that time of month so I am super bloated.. i will wait until Aunt Flow leaves before I weigh myself... Anyway, that is all.. a struggle indeed and I lost this round 8(

Thursday

Another successful day!  For breakfast I had oatmeal, for snack I had an apple - for lunch I had a salad and for snack I had a fiber bar! Boy do those bars make me gasy! I met up with my friend Stacy. We walked the mall and then had dinner. We both got the soup. I didn't realize how tasty soup can be if you get it at a restaurant.. or maybe it was because everything tastes good when you diet - plus it was 7 p.m. and we were hungry! It was seafood soup with griled shrimp and some other fish.. I even brought some home to take to work.. I think with the Winter approaching I will be going out for soup a lot - it's inexpensive and healthy. I am proud of myself. When I had the urge to eat today, I reminded myself that I don't want to be obese. I am right now.. and I want to change but I have to work at it. I can't give into my indulgence. This is a test about will power and at this moment I am winning... Go me!

Wednesday

Not a bad day! I woke up with a headache but after some IB Profein I felt good as new. For breakfast,  I had some fruit. For lunch a salad with chicken and avacodo. For snack a fiber bar, another snack my second apple and dinner was a smart ones pizza. I went to the gym and worked out. Afterwards, we went to the McDonalds DRive Thru because Samantha was hungry.. Normally, I would get 2 chicken burgers off the dollar menu and soak them in honey mustard.. this time I passed... was it hard? yes, is it taking every ounce of me not to eat some of the kids.. somewhat... but then I remember what I am doing.. I am getting health and living a healthier lifestyle...Good night
