Life has been really hectic lately and of course, I fell of the wagon. :(  I almost made it to my Halloween challenge goal of 140, but stress from school and boy troubles triggered emotional eating.

I've just finished day 3 of the 30 day shred! 7 more days to go. I can't believe I've actually managed to do the program 3 days in a row! I also went swimming ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ruby5839/2009/10/06/on-a-roll/ The scale has budged! Somewhat. I'm down to 146, but who knows if it's just a fluke. It's been 2 days in a row now, so I'll keep monitoring before declaring it officially 1 lb down. Geez, it's sad I'm excited about a pound. Food-wise: so-so. I have good days and ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ruby5839/2009/10/04/quick-update/ Sadly, no pics this week. I think I'm just going to stick with a weekly posting to comment on my progress and whether or not I've managed to stick with my goals. Weight: 147 lbs. Have been stuck at 147 for the last month and a half now. It's very frustrating, ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ruby5839/2009/09/20/weekly-weigh-in/ Of course the green monster continues to be my go-to breakfast meal: Here's a shot of my go-to breakfasts and brunch/lunches from this past week: Breakfast: my usual GM with a slice of toast and some strawberries (or other fruit). Brunch/lunch on my sleep-in days: 2 slices of ezekiel with garden fresh ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ruby5839/2009/09/14/my-new-go-to-meal/ Not much is new in my life. I'm finally done camp and will be back at school starting tomorrow :( I'm hoping to get into a nice routine balancing school work, healthy eating and exercising. Every school year I strive for it, hopefully this is the year I achieve it! I've ... http://www.3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ruby5839/2009/09/07/almost-back-to-normalcy/ Yikes! It's been awhile since my last post. I've been so busy finishing off school and getting used to working full-time again, it's been exhausting.

I haven't had any time for posting. The next 2 weeks are going to be HECTIC!

I was on the run on wednesday, so I didn't make a green monster but grabbed a protein bar instead. I did a 1 hr weight workout at the gym and had brown rice sushi for the first time ever.
