I went home this past weekend and had a lovely time. I ran one night, and swam a bit the next but didnt do anything super serious. I didnt stay on track, per say, but I definitely ate better than I would have. And my Grandma said it looks like I’ve lost a lot of weight! Maybe 30 lbs does make a difference! I really want to hit 170 by the start of school so that I’m no longer in the “obese” BMI category, and then I’d officially be in the “overweight” category. That will be only one category away from healthy! woohoo! haha, oh man! I’ve really got to get my act together if I am going to try (WILL) lose 23 lbs in 11 weeks. It’s TOTALLY do-able, but it means that I’ll have to lose 2+ lbs a week, which means I’ve got to be disciplined both with food and exercise. I really want to hit 170ish by September 22, if not sooner, so i’ve got to stay on track and really keep a check on carbs and sodium too.

Overall, I did pretty well today!:

Breakfast: Yogurt (70), 1/2 banana (55), some berries (15), cereal (35)-175

Coffee: Iced nonfat latte (70)

Lunch: sandwhich (150), baby bell cheese (50), snap and snow peas (40), jello (10), nectarine (70), pretzel slims (55)-375

Snack: 1/2 piece of banana bread (55), apple (70) and 10 almonds (86) -211

Pre-gym Snack: cottage cheese (40) and some berries (15)-55

Dinner: Salad (120), corn (80), 2 turkey burgers (200), ketchup (30)- 430

Total so far: 1316; appx left: 84

Workout: 32 min treadmill (I did week 3 day 1 of c25k, and I’m really excited about the program!), then i did a few extra minutes to get out 2 miles.  then 29 min of the elliptical, and 1hr+ of weights and abs.  I don’t have time for the gym tomorrow, so I had to do an extra good workout today! and i have to make sure to watch my food tomorrow because no gym AND i’m being served dinner!
Hope you all had a great weekend! I’ve been reading your blogs and you all have been doing a fabulous job!
