Week 3 day 3

well last night was both good and bad, I had chicken artichoke pizza from Dhalias and garlic bread, I did try to watch how much i ate, and so i'm still losing/maintaing..I weighed myself this morning and i was at 250.6 yay!!!! it's going slow but i have to accept it and keep at it... I havent excercised in the last 2 days.. but mainly because i worked 12 hrs yesterday and I was sooooo tired..

This morning I hadn't had much time to eat breakfast, so I got some lean cuisine flat bread sandwich.. and nuked that when i got to work.. had like 8g of fat and 330 cals.. so it's not too bad..

Lunch is another lean cuisine and fruit.. and dinner is a chicken cesar salad, I am still taking the Alli and it's making me feel ok.. no side effects.. JOY!!!! I also have had much soda had 1 c of pepsi last night but I am trying to stick to H2O...

Week 2 Day 2

So last night was horrible, I was still emo as hell and didn't end up exercising, even ended up giving into 2 crispy chicken pita snacks from Jack in the Box......bad ...

today is better but not by much

breakfast was a yoplait yogurt (strawberry) and a handful of Almonds i'm gonna say aobut 400 cals maybe

lunch 4 nutter butters and a carton of milk 250 cals and 190 cals

i need to exercise tonight. and need to think of something semi healthy for dinner
I think I will make peanut pork noodles and have some more H2O

So I didn't bother cooking last night, I hate a large cup of noodles thing. blah and lots of water and a handful of swedishfish. I couldn't even get on the WiiFit because my sister was watching Tele in the living room

Week 2 Day 1

So yesterday turned into an exercise in emotional eating. I got into an argument with my SO and it turned into an emo day from hell from me. I started eating things to make myself feel better, to no avail because in the long run it just led me to feeling more miserable than I initially was

Today I am trying to do better, I took my meds and should think about breakfast, but I am still a little distraught and I don't really feel like eating at all

Day 7: The Weekly Weigh In!!!!

So let's start with the stats:

after 1 week on the wii.. a total of 5 hours this week....

BMI : 42.17
Weight: 253

so with in a week I have lost 2 lbs and seen my BMI drop .83 --

Goals for the next week: Will stick to eating clean, refraining from eating junkfood and avoid drinking soda, usually work is my downfall I tend to eat out and drink more soda than I should. I will work on actually cooking my lunches this week, and trying to eat breakfast even if it is just oatmeal or yogurt and fruit.. I will also try to do the WiiFit 30 minutes a day 2x a day. I would like to see my bmi at 41 or just under 41 and be down to 250 by the end of the next 7 days. I don't want to lose weight too quickly as they say that is what leads to gaining it back. I am legitimately trying to make lifestyle changes.


Breakfast:

1/2 cup mango 53.5 cal
1 cup pineapple 82 cal
1/2 cup raspberries 32 cal
1 English Muffin 150
1 Tbsp olive oil margarine 65 cal

total :382.5

I have 1/2 L of water that I am trying to drink down and I have taken the handful of pills I am supposed to take

Lunch:

1 cup TurkeyStew
still trying to finish off that 1/2 L of H2O

Day 6

Well it's Day 6 and I am off to a good start, Woke upthis morning around 830ish and got my rear end on the wii for 30 minutes Yay!!! hopefully will get back on for 30 again tonight. So far I haven't had breakfast yet ... I am just not hungry, but I did swollow down the handful of pills--vitamins and herbal depression treatments.. that I normally take.. so Lets see how this day goes shall we :)

Brunch:
1/2 cup oatmeal 150 cals/3 g fat/4 g fiber/5 g protein
1/2 cup milk 65 cals
1 tsp cashew butter 95 cals
1 tsp honey 30 cals
1/2 cup raspberries 32 cals
1/4 cup almonds 170 cals
1 English muffin 150 cals
1 Tbsp olive oil margarine 60

752 calories total.

now I know that sounds like a lot but please remember that this is my breakfast and lunch combined, a large bowl of oatmeal mixed with the milk, the cashew butter and the honey topped with the raspberries and almonds, and I had the english muffin on the side.. I've already only had about 2/3 of this and I am starting to feel full.. but I have also included a large glass of H2O with this.


So dinner, involved 2 bowls of turkey stew made with 1 lb lean turkey breast, 2 cans of tomatoes, 1/2 an onion, 2 zucchini, 1 container of mushrooms and one can of chicken broth.. and 1/4 of a bo of whole wheat pasta, with some seasonings, this makes about 6 servings..

I am not sure of the calorie count, but i hope it's not much, i also had a handful of almonds and will have a weightwatchers smart ones dessert later .. still have to do the wiifitt again one more time tonight. I've also had nothing but water to drink all day today..

So lets finish off todays post with the fact that I did 30 more minutes on the Wii today. And I am feeling really good.

Day 5: An exercise in Bad Habits

So normally this is where I would get down on myself about bad habits, from the large order of fries and steakhouse burger from burgerking last night... to the 1/3 a bag of Poore Brothers salt and pepper potato chips, to the slice of apple pie with a mound of cool whip.. the list of shitty eating goes on and on today.. now at this point I'd be really upset with myself and about ready to give up.. as I didn't even want to get on the WiiFit today. But I persevered.... I was about to go to bed and say f*ckit but I didn't I got my but out of bed put on my sneakers and got on the Wii.. the results were a bit depressing as I was up 4 pounds sigh.. I had lost about 2-4 so far but I figured I deserved to see that number My habits were bad, to much fast food and not enough real home cooked meals. But I went on, I did 30 mins of WiiFit and got on with things. I took my vitamin and am getting ready for bed, I do have plans to get on the WiiFit again tomorrow morning and pick up where I left off. I have to remind myself, Goal... I have a goal I want to attain.

I went to the grocery store and picked up the few items I need to cook meals from the Eat Clean magazine and will go back tomorrow as I forgot to pick up a few pieces of fruit and some carrots and celery (maybe some hummus?) to snack on .. that way I steer away from chips and other bath sweets.. I have also been bad as I have been drinking soda when I promised myself I would lay off.. ... But I will try harder.. Thursday is my weigh in for the week, I'd atleast like to be down 2-3 pounds and 5-6 the following week, I have to remind myself constantly that this won't happen over night, I won't become a size 12 immediately.. I will have to work at this. Being the type of person who prefers instant gratification weight loss was always hard because I found that if I didn't see the results I wanted right away I'd get pissy and give up. I can't do that this time. No seat belt extender for this girl on her trip to the Uk to see her sweetie. lol.. Plus I saw the cutest outfit that I'd love to be able to wear, came in a size 18-20 still bigger than I'd like to be but If i can be a size 18 by my trip I'll be ecstatic :) so alas I must be good, If I want this to be lasting I must work at it. So my friends untill tomorrow..

Day 4 or is it 5?

So let me start out by saying today has been a very good day thus far. I did find myself struggling ot get out of bed this morning as I hit the snooze button 2 times, but I did finally manage to roll my ass out of bed, get my tennis shoes on and get on the WiiFit. I did 20 minutes on the WiiFit this morning, and plan on doing another 20-30 minutes when I get home... I am trying not to push myself to hard but lets face it this girl has a goal she wants to meet 50 pounds down by the end of April! before I go see my honey in the UK. I also managed to eat some breakfast this morning, another healthy serving of Honey Cashew Oatmeal. This morning though instead of fruit I had it with 2 small slices of whole wheat bread with a Tbsp of Olive Oil spread. Although I did have 1 teacup full of Sprite, I needed something with flavor to swollow down those pills I take every morning..... Lunch, because I neglected to cook anything, will be another Healthy Choice steamer.... Dinner, I planned ahead today, I will probably grill a piece of tilapia, have 1/2 a cup of brown rice and probably some brussel sprouts. or maybe omit the rice completely will all depend on how hungry I am. But So far if I recall properly I am down 3 pounds and 1 BMI point :) count me excited. .. I am also trying to get in all my H2O for the day as well I didnt' have much except for the 2 glasses I had yesterday when I got home. Today I am trying to do better I have a 1.5L bottle that I am already 1/4 of the way through. My mini goal for today is to do better than I did yesterday.....


Okay so it's past lunch time, and I did a bad thing, work ordered Chipotle, and I gave in, I ordered a veggie burrito bowl with the works, and chips :(
luckily I only ate like 1/2 of it, now I am not feeling to good, and I am feeling like I am ready to go home ...sighs.. but that's related to something else....not the diet...
