Pretty good, but still no exercise. Very tired from not getting to bed til late due to the basketball game. 

Not one piece of candy or a cookie today. I just noticed that. Didn't even crave it. I have cookies in my lunch bag and Hershey's Drops and some salt water taffy among other random sweets in my desk and I didn't even think about them today. Yay! Though I did have a 2nd coffee today. I made not have made it through the late afternoon without it though.

Right now my stomach is rumbling, but I'm giving it water instead. No need to eat at 11:45pm.

Hubby helped make a potato casserole that will go with two dinners this week. Hopefully, that dish will turn out decent.

Rams night

  • Breakfast: Egg bagel, mustard, svg deli turkey, rf cheese slice, 2 hard boiled eggs 
  • Lunch: 4 Spinach & chicken shells, pear cup, 2 mandarin oranges, cookie 
  • Snack: Carrots 
  • Dinner: 6in turkey subway sub, pepper jack cheese, spinach, tomatoes, pickles, onion, light mayo 
  • Snack/Dessert: Soft pretzel, mustard, 2 chocolate pb chip cookies 
  • Drinks: 8oz coffee (creamer & Splenda), 8oz hot chocolate, water, 6oz Diet Rite

 I'd call this a pretty good day. The weekend wasn't that bad. I only ate one "meal" at the Coliseum and I think what I chose was better than some of what was offered. I had planned on that soft pretzel tonight. I didn't have any chips with the dinner sub so I could have that pretzel. I think going to Rams games should be considered exercise. Between the roaming around the Coliseum, running to the bathroom so I don't miss the game or Peppas playing, clapping, dancing, jumping, cheering, and not to mention the almost constant jumping out of my seat. I was worn out last night and tonight. Pretty sore as well.

Weigh In 3/3

On Saturday 3/3 at 11am: 378.4
If the doctor's office scale was correct, I weighed in there at 384 on 2/22.
I started eating better this week, but I started watching portions that week.
So my total loss so far is: 5.6 lbs.
350 is my goal before pregnancy.
My ob-gyn appt is April 10th.
I would like to WILL lose another 10lbs before that appt.

Had better days

  • Breakfast: Egg bagel, svg deli ham, mustard, RF cheese slice, and 2 hard boiled eggs.

  • Lunch: Tortellini soup, svg crackers, 2 mandarin oranges, and a cookie

I jinxed myself yesterday by mentioning staying full. When I ate I felt full, but not for long. I drank a whole lot of water today. I am not feeling well right now.
This weekend might be a challenge as I will be at a bball tourney and there can be many yummy temptations. I plan on taking in a few better for me snacks and eating my meal at home instead of at the Coliseum.
I also will be buying a scale this weekend. I need to keep tabs on my own, not just when I go to the doctor. I found one that I like at WalMart for a good price and since I do my grocery shopping there, I have no excuse not to buy it.

Here is to doing better tomorrow.
