Schedule

Saturday, November 07, 2009

So after much delay I am here again and have watched the scale creep up to a number I am not comfortable with. I do not have kids and really have no reason to not be in the best shape of my life. So I have done some thinking on how I got here and realized I do not have a set schedule as I once did when I worked in a office now that I work from home - I can go into that fridge any time I feel like it and over it or just eat the wrong foods and 1 healthy meal a day doesn't really work out too well. I guess I am giving mixed messages. I don't really like anything appearance wise about me so I am making so life changing changes. I am coming up with a schedule and routine and holding my self accountable.

So the dog walk no longer counts as my cardio.
Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner will be healthy and one will be a salad
On days I am active I will eat 1552 calories
On days I am not working out I will eat 1258

I will eat lean proteins, fats and healthy carbs while balancing each. On the 15th day of every month I will have a cheat night that I can eat whatever I want and then add 20 mins to the gym for the next 3 days. This will not be easy but it will give me the much needed umph to do what I need for me!

Cook yourself Thin

Monday, June 08, 2009

So I have seen a few shows of Cook yourself Thin on the lifetime channel and they were making these Banana Chocolate Chip muffins and I began salvaiting over them - everything they were making looked easy and delicious. So there I am sitting on my couch drooling like my dog at the TV - but for something healthy! So yesterday I made it my mission to do exactly what they were hoping for - buy there cookbook and well I did - I went to Barnes and Noble and I bought it. I then proceeded to plan out a weeks worth of meals for both me and my hubby! See I got him involed with these muffins and let him sprinkle on the chocolate chips! So today I ate 2 for breakfast with a cup of milk and 3 hours later am still full and satisfied! This is awesome I love this feeling and the best part was they were good! But the deal is to do their meals for 6 weeks - so not all of our meals are from this cookbook but most are! We are doing Chicken Taco stew leftovers for lunch and turkeybugers and sweetpotato fries for dinner! I am actually excited to cook and get skinny all at the same time and the best is they still use sugar! I am just thrilled to finally get something to reboost my focus! In 6 weeks I should be dropping a full dress size!

What time are we sitting down??? Woo Hoo! I love cook books and just joined a cook book club that features a lot of "diet" type books, with the nutritional information included with the recipe! Planning will make your progress even more satisfying, as your goals are met! Keep working! OC will see some smaller bodies very soon!

I want to come to your house for dinner!!! Sounds like a lot of fun while eating healthy!!!

Slight Additction

Tuesday, May 26, 2009

So I am slightly addictied to the show Jon and Kate plus 8 and it cracks me up that her hair is making the front pages - on another note its surreal to think that this families life could just change by having 2 sets of multiples and how they have evolved into todays Joan Cleaver - I am not saying that the show is right or wrong but I do hope that they can work out some of the martial problems and maybe TLC needs to have them go on the lifetime show wife swap and see how Kate and Jon act when thrown into a different element and myabe just maybe they will appreciate each other just a bit more and realize why they became a team and decided to have kids in the first place! Anyways - one more hour and them the 3rd walk of the day!
