Happy Healthy Me

I had set out a goal starting 9/29 to loose 5lbs by Halloween and well today is halloween and I did not reach my goal, I kind of figured I wouldn’t and the reason for that is because in that time frame I lost my aunt 9/29 and my dad 12 days later (10/11) which in turn I gained 8lbs instead of loosing. Of the 8lbs gained I did manage to loose 1lb but I’m not where I wanted to be.

Today will start a new goal my Thanksgiving goal and I want to loose 5lbs by Thanksgiving day which should put me at 196. Check back in on Thanksgiving for the results.

My gandfather had to be put in the hospital yesturday so if any readers would keep him and our family in their thoughts and prayers it would be greatly appreciated, as we have been through so much in one month but with the grace of God we will get through it.

Welcome to my new diet blog! This is my first post. I am so excited to be doing this - I was doing all my journaling for the past 5 months in a notebook but it seems I lost the desire for that.

Today is as follows -

bfast: 1/2 cup egg beaters with 2tbs salsa & 1/4 cup black beans (made into an omelet) 1 cup coffee w/2tbsp creamer & 6oz tomato juice

snack: 1 (2%) mozz cheese stick

lunch: 6in subway chicken sub with lettuce, tomato, onion & mayo, baked lays chips - diet coke to wash it down

so far 8 (8oz) glasses of water

no workout today as today is my day of rest (family night)
