Not sure, in all honesty Ciao. Some people are just rude. Some encouraging words from others picked me up a bit. Gonna try and hit the elliptical again tomorrow. Still gonna go at a different time to hopefully avoid them, but can't let them deter me from going there

Congrats on the scale still headed downwards!

@Sunarie; That's unfortunate. But I'm glad other people helped you! And yeah, I think I'm still working off all the bloat from AF and all the hispanic food. Haha.

On another note, I got the BabyBullet for a steal today! It's originally $70+ dollars and someone sold it to me for $35. I prepped my seven month old son's snacks and breakfasts for this week.

I used vanilla yogurt, pears, and apples. It tastes just like a smoothie! I'm glad my husband and I are implementing this change for our family, not just ourselves.

Awesome starting them at a young age. My son lived with both my and my ex's bad eating habits for several years, and now at 6 trying to get him to eat more healthy has been a huge challenge. Grats on another pound lost too! You're cruising!

For dinner/lunch today we're doing buffalo chicken nuggets, and I was having trouble deciding what to do for a side. I have lots of frozen brocolli, cauliflower, and carrots.. but ran out of green beans and we don't go to the store again for a few days. So what I'm gonna try is making my italian chicken recipe, and just doing an additional bag of veggies instead of adding chicken. Usually the starch that the recipe goes over is what ups the points, so hopefully it'll result in some tasty veggies that are lower on points.

Meal Plan for today

Breakfast: Breakfast Drink w/ skim milk (4 points)
Snack: Chocolate Berry Smoothie (5 points)
Lunch: Baked Buffalo Chicken Nuggets w/ 2 serving Italian Veggies (7 points)
Dinner: Baked Buffalo Chicken Nuggets w/ 2 serving Italian Veggies (7 points)
Snack: Yoplait Light + granola (4 points) Hot Cocoa w/ Kahlua and Baileys (6 points)

Daily Total/Allowed: 33/35
Weekly Points: 0/35

Exercise: 20 minutes on the elliptical.

Expected. My husband and I had date night last night and since I had school late we ate a little late. Back on track into the 190's.

Date nights are fun! We're planning a night out for my birthday coming up (early Feb). Will be taking a trip to Red Lobster. Yum yum! I don't get seafood very often cause boyfriend isn't a fan of crab/shrimp/lobster, and neither of us like fish too much. I adore most shellfish though. Counting down the days! I'm gonna be 30 this year! I've never been one to care about age, but it does feel kinda weird to say I'm gonna be 30. New decade and all.

Meal Plan for today

Breakfast: Breakfast Drink w/ skim milk (4 points)
Snack: Apple Peach Crisp Smoothie (5 points)
Lunch: Buffalo Chicken Salad (12 points)
Dinner: Buffalo Chicken Salad (12 Points)
Snack: Yoplait Light + granola (4 points)

Daily Total/Allowed: 37/35

I think I want to switch to weekly weigh-ins and focus on calorie counting and exercising for now.

I get too close to the 190's that I sabotage myself. I don't know if I'm just comfortable being at this weight or I don't think I deserve being healthier?

1/7/15: 202.2 lbs
1/24/15: next weigh-in

I'd like to exercise five times a week for 30 minutes a day.

Ciao - Definitely find whatever works for you. If I'm not seeing progress I like, or the number on the scale is getting me down.. then I tend to lay off it for a while. Right now I've gone to weekly weigh ins because I didn't like looking at the scale and it being over my mini-goal again. I'll likely go back to daily weighing in Feb. As far as self-sabotage.. for me it always starts with "oh, I've reached xyz number, I can have this thing that isn't really on plan.. I'm still losing overall".. like I rationalize the decision in my head, and then that happens too often. I've been trying to avoid that this go by not really restricting what's allowed and what's not. So nothing is technically off plan. I still seem to get hung up around 229 though. Even staying on plan.. body just seems to want to stick there, which I suppose makes sense because 230 is where I've been at for the majority of my adult life.

228.8 today! Back under my first mini-goal, yay! Need to go grocery shopping tomorrow. Starting to run out of things like salad, and if the healthy stuff isn't in the house I start ordering out.. so.. that needs to not happen! Meal plan for today is the same as the meal plan was for Friday mostly. Just without the granola in the yogurt.

Meal Plan for today

Breakfast: Breakfast Drink w/ skim milk (4 points)
Snack: Apple Peach Crisp Smoothie (5 points)
Lunch: Buffalo Chicken Salad (12 points)
Dinner: Buffalo Chicken Salad (12 Points)
Snack: Yoplait Light (2 points)

Sorry for being absent! This week has been... difficult.

I know my weigh-in is going to be high so it's just gotten me down even more. Good thing it's only a week. Can start new today and forget about this week I've had.

Glad to see you posting again Ciao, sorry you had a hard week and I hope it gets better!

Got an early birthday present from my dad yesterday. It's a set of resistance bands that I had on my Amazon wishlist. So I used them for my strength training stuff today. Only did two sets of the 18 different exercises that came in the booklet. Totally wore me out.

My points for dinner today are a little different than the recipe. I don't like bacon, so I'm not including it, and I have fat free cream cheese. I also don't have whole wheat bread crumbs. So.. my points actually wound up higher.

Meal Plan for today

Breakfast: Breakfast Drink w/ skim milk (4 points)
Snack: Apple Peach Crisp Smoothie (5 points)
Lunch: 1 and a half servings Cheesy Jalapeņo Popper Baked Stuffed Chicken (15 points)
Dinner: 1 serving Cheesy Jalapeņo Popper Baked Stuffed Chicken (10 Points)
Snack: Yoplait Light (2 points)

Daily Total/Allowed: 36/35
Weekly Points: 1/35

Exercise: Strength day.
