158.8 Back to my ending point!

PEEVES

1. Kids dumped toys in my workout spot did pick up and sidetracked not getting to the workout.
2. Wore their dirty shoes by workout spot so their is dust on hardwood floor, I can not lay down.
3. Dirty boys socks by workout spot.
4. Someone didn't do their dumping rainbow vacuum job so now I got to. Just so I can workout.
5. Someone unhooked VCR so now I have to do electrical untangle to get my workout video going.

I do love my boys but sheesh they are so dang messy sometimes it's irritating.

So yesterdays workout looked like 3 miles run/walk I did 2 mile run/walk after the Banquet dinner. Today I am going to somehow concur my laundry HAAaaa. I hate that job sometimes.

45 min workout today is Pilates For Every Body with Denise Austin. I needed the stretch and the hubby says we are going on a long walk together to.

I prep cooked for the month and I will show you all the before and afters after a bit and I am now ready for any surprise appointments that will make me be caught without cooked backup foods. I even cooked some steak strips for fajitas on the run.

Oh ya my tuna wasa sandwich was so so so good glad I tried it and as we can all see even with the crazy derail that I made work for me last night. I lost I lost I lost I lost I lost.

I have so many lunch choices today that we will blog that later tonight.

Lunch: Grilled Chicken over Romain lettuce with homemade Strawberry Vinaigrette Dressing. I also took a bit of the chicken and added it to some broth that I made with some onions to drink and tame the Dressing down after.

Recipe for dressing in that cool cookbook I have.

My husband just told me that after my last baby was born I weighed 200 pounds I can not remember that. I was under way to much stress. I do remember feeling frustrated about slowly sliding up from 175 to 180 but I got that reading on the scale like a year later when my baby and I were finally home and starting to be normal or as normal as it's going to get at my house with him.

169.4 WOW thats alot to gain in three days!

So my body just sucked it all up and packed it on. Those fat cells are still there ready to accept it all and hang on to it for dear life when you increase the Carbs and maintain no control. Good lesson, I wonder what it will be like when I eat whole wheat and brown rice instead of all the refined foods that were there for my taking this weekend. I could care less about eating today. No hunger messages until closer to the evening meal. I ate fish with tomatoes and a grissini for my lunch. Oh and my apple too. For my dinner it was a chicken, celery, orange tossed with some braggs for dinner. My tummy is still doing a huge rubble.

I really am glad I have my cool recipe book for this round and also loved using On the Lighter-side of low carb link to get through some of my recipe hangups with the maintenance phase. Atkins link is also great and they sent me a great carb counting book that I carry with me always.

March 7, 2010 170.7 Wii 168.6 new scales BMI 29.02

Finally moving down again. My Wii scales got dropped yesterday and so I knew this morning it was not going to say the same thing I am going to convert to the scale that never gets moved because it is also staying close to the old one that my hubby has and they are both never ever moved. I strength trained on the Wii this morning I just felt like I needed to keep the muscles stretching and toning. I felt some new spots that were different then in the past year so I am glad that I did the training. Lunch was off of my amazing Recipe book that I have but you have to request it and then I will email it if you want it FREE.

So Lunch Strawberry Vinaigrette with the Chicken cooked in a bit of it and the rest pored over cucumbers and the rest of the strawberries sliced and the chicken on top. I saved my melba toasts and ate while the kids I taught ate their fishy crackers, Yeah no cheating for me today. Dinner was the most yummy Picante sauce off my HCG Recipe book. I did eat hamburger (181 cal) on top of a few, meaning like 5 spinach leaves (less then 7 cal because it was not a one cup measurement) with the sauce on top. Sauce has tomato (20 cal for the sauce and 1 tomato 32.1 cal making a total of 52.1 cal and you divide that by 4 you get about 13.2 cal of the sauce) and well I only had about 1/4 cup of it so that really is the allotted Veg. Oh yeah the bun was a Wasa cracker (60). It was pretty messy but so so yummy. So cal count up is----506.6 if I am doing all this counting correct. I just know that staying away from Beef and shrimp on the same day is the best route. This is totally my theory but it seems like when your body starts burning the fat storage areas that you stop being hungry at odd moments and the diet makes you feel really full and when your at a set point or holding spot then you might end up more hungry because your not burning. Good day good day.

March 2, 2010 Wii 173.1 172.8 new scales

Freezing again but feeling oh so good in the skin I have. My hands feel less puffy and fat. Now if my chin would slim down that would be nice. It was a crazy day of trying to make sure I ate at the right time and have time to even cook it. Lunch small 3.5 oz raw weighed sirloin tip steak with asparagus and apple salad. Dinner was strawberry cucumber salad with curried fish that's my favorite way to cook it. I could not make it cooking if I didn't have the recipes that make it so I can think up these combinations. I really cook terribly if its on my own and can not think up a veggi recipe for nothing. I had to be in places that I didn't know my water releasing spots so that was rough. I also have gotten Chocolate Stevia and Lemon twist stevia and add that to my water. Now I can get my water down easily in new ways. ITS GOING DOWN YEAH YEAH YEAH!

A RECIPE book I can do this, I think.

I am a terrible cook and can not think up things to cook. Actually I hate cooking. I also do not know a thing about calorie counting. I never had to use it. To often pregnant and then nursing so why learn I always told myself. Besides it wasn't that big a problem until the last two babies. So now that I have a book with recipes that tell me how to cook with this new HCG protocol I think I can do this. If I had to eat chicken the whole time with spinach I wouldn't make it that's for sure.
