Morning all ♥
It's a beautiful day out there, so going for a brisk walk shortly.. Yesterday,i ended up walking more than 2 hours, plus my walk to and from work (twice, because i worked a split shift) - so definitely upp'ing the exercise. Today, i am starting the 100 pushup challenge, and going to start on some toning exercises as well .. For breakfast - 1/2 cup multigrain cheerios 1 cup of skim milk (half for cereal & drank the rest, lol) 1 medium orange 1 boiled egg, medium snack - 1/2 cup grapes & 1 clementine Not sure what's for lunch just yet, but taking some salmon out for tonight's dinner, with a very little bit of basmati rice and asparagus, & a salad ,YUM! It feels great to be back in the game, and already seeing & feeling results - Next goal is 10 more lbs!

hey errr buddy!! I hope everyone is having a great week! I have to get out today and walk. It should be a great walk downtown and sight seeing. Look forward to getting out and checking out the area I am in now.
I also decided to pull out my scale and weigh myself today. I had lost 10 lbs when I started to diet and I haven't checked it now for 2 months since moving around and trying to get situated. Not so sure I kept the lbs off but we will see and I think by looking anyway it will give me motivation. have a wonderful day peeps. |

Good morning & happy Tuesday y'all
 It's almost that time of year again where we all start juggling like crazy & the world moves nonstop. So, what are you gonna do to stay motivated to keep on track in the midst of all the holiday events?Well for me, since I'm doing the cooking this Thanksgiving, I'm looking into healthier alternatives to traditional holiday comfort foods. I'm going back through some receipes that y'all have posted, and combing through the WW receipes & some diabetic friendly ones (since both of my parents are now pre-diabetic). I know a lot of people are starting to list something every single day that they are thankful for in their lives. I heard this song.... and decided I was gonna list ONE thing everyday that made me feel proud of myself. I'm proud that yesterday, I made smarter choices & was able to stay within my points range. I threw away all the crap snack foods in the cabinets at work & loaded the fridge with fruit & yogurt. As for meals planned for the day... Breakfast: Special K with berries cereal with 2% low fat milk a banana a small sugar free iced vanilla coffee Lunch: chicken salad with apples & pecans on a wheat tortilla Dinner: ground turkey taco salads with no shell (lettuce, tomato, avacado, a sprinkle of WW cheese, fat free sour cream & salsa), a handful of Baked Tostitos Scoops on the side. Snacks: WW string cheese 100 calorie almond pack Plans are to hit the gym tonight... even if I have to go alone. Game on! Have a great day, y'all! |

Salad In a Jar
I'm always looking for new and clever ways to make my meals to-go.
I thought this was great, especially because portable salads can be a hassle because there are always some ingredients that get mushy or go off too quickly. http://lifehacker.com/5857420/make-s...fresh-for-days And, its a great "green" container solution too.

Ive had my exersis today by playing soccor with my furkid,for nearly a half hour we either chased the ball from one end of the yard to the other or I shot hoops while she took a break.We both needed this badly cause we both have been down and upset about her buddy passing over the weekend.

Good Morning Everyone,
I have done so much walking the last few days, that I am power walked out...I went and had dinner with Jo on Tuesday night and then met up with Ruff to have coffee lastnight... I have been having either a fried egg in Pam cooking spray, one slice of toast and coffee or a bowl of Golden Grahams cereal with coffee for breakfast. Lunch, has been a grilled pepper jack cheese sandwich with turkey on oatmeal bread and water. Dinner, has been a hamburger-sans the bun- with carrots or chicken with veggies.. Snacks, have been M&M's-fun size- and bananas... Have a great day, Zimmeh

good morning everyone! Super rainy day today, so i will be treadmilling it and using the elliptical, though i don't mind walking in the rain, i'm due for new sneakers and i'll end up with wet feet i think! lol.. Sitting here eating breakfast right now: pomegranate & blueberry yogurt half of an apple, with 1/2 cup fresh pineapple 4 lil melba toast crackers, with some peanut butter 240 calories, and well balanced (got my protein, starch & fruit) yay! i haven't had a weigh in since last one, but hoping for results, last weigh in was 59 lbs lost, soooo want to be able to say 60 something lbs lost after my plateau.. i've been hanging on to 58 & 59 lbs lost for a few weeks now..Although it wasn't so much a plateau, i just haven't been as committed to working out as i should be, i know this.. And so, i stepped it up this week and finally am feeling some results in how loose my clothes are feeling compared to usual... So , crossing fingers, when i finally DO weigh in (which will probably be next week) that i've some awesome results to report. i do keep reminding myself daily that this isn't about the weight loss for me, as much as it is about feeling healthy, feeling happy in my own skin & of course gaining control on my eating disorder and addiction to food & sugars.. So on THAT note, i feel fabulous & healthier than ever.. AND, as far as weight loss goes, i am smaller now than i have been in over 15 years, actually 18.. my son is 18 years old and i didn't lose that weight at all either.. So that alone makes me feel so proud of myself. PS - i LOVE the idea of recipes for healthier cooking over the holidays! We should definitely get to sharing, because not only is your Thanksgiving coming up, but Christmas (oy) is right around the corner too! And i'm such a new recipe lover..

Dear Weightloss Peeps, It has been many days since my last confession...
I had chocolate cake for breakfast!!!!!!!!!! .gif "Say What?") I have not checked in for a while. Diet has been off and on but I need to settle down! I have really been finding it hard to jump right back in. Hence, chocolate cake for breakfast??? Chihuahuas!!!!!!!!! I have ben eating healthy lunches and breakfasts, it is dinner time that is killing me. I get extra hungry and that is the worst time to do it!!! Since I feel so off track, I do start feeling guilty. Anyhow, I could definitely use the love and support of my weightloss peeps. I am going to be grumpy today because now that I finished this piece of chocolate cake, I know it is time to get back!!! Thank you for listening. You all are always such a support! LETS DO THIS!!!!!!!!!! Signed~ Sushyne |

I read a quote somewhere, and I'm sure I'm gonna get it wrong, but it says something like.... "It doesn't matter how many times we fall, what counts is how many times we get back up." Luckily, we have a chance to start fresh every single day... hell every single meal. Just know that you are NEVER alone on this journey! We've all got your back! |

Found this recipe today on SparkPeople website (which i just rejoined today) which i soo wanna try, i work all weekend so thinking on Monday its on my "to do" list.. Yummy!! So thought i would share! i am a big fan of slow-cooker recipes =) Slow-Cooker Salsa Chicken 485 Minutes to Prepare and Cook Ingredients: 2 pounds (32 ounces) chicken breasts, boneless and skinless 1 cup salsa, homemade or purchased 1 cup petite diced canned tomatoes (choose low-sodium) 2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning 1 cup onions, diced fine 1/2 cup celery diced fine 1/2 cup carrots, shredded 3 tablespoons sour cream, reduced fat Directions: Salsa Chicken is easy to make; just put all the ingredients in a slow cooker and let the machine do the work. There are infinite variations, and your family is guaranteed to like each one. 6-8 hours to prepare; 15 minutes of active cooking time Makes 8 one-cup servings of chicken. Place the chicken in a slow cooker. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the meat then layer the vegetables and salsa on top. Pour a half cup water over the mixture, set on low and cook for 6-8 hours. The meat is cooked when it shreds or reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. When ready to serve, break up the chicken with two forks then stir in the sour cream. Makes eight 1 cup servings. Number of Servings: 8 Servings Per Recipe: 8 Calories: 164.9 (per serving) Total Fat: 2.5g Cholesterol: 67.9 mg Sodium: 253.3 mg Total Carbs: 7.3 g Dietary Fiber: 2.1 g Protein: 27.6 g i, personally, would lower the amount of taco seasoning to cut back on the sodium most likely..i think the salsa would be lots of flavor alone..But regardless, sounds yummy to me *rubs tummy*
