Yay! I'm in too!

1400-1500 calories, at least 5 fruit/veg a day, and 100 minutes on the crosstrainer/elliptical

Monday: Around a million calories, complete failure on that part (when will I learn to step away from the Baileys.....), will calculate later on my excel sheet. Did eat lots of cherry tomatoes and a huge salad though, so at least I hit one target No exercise except for a walk, got a cold but it's still a lame excuse :/

Tuesday: Another terrible day caloriewise, I hang my head in shame....

Wednesday: Improvement in calories, I read Dr Fuhrman's ETL book and something finally clicked. And I got out a book to write my food diary in for the first time in... aaages I'm finding it so motivating being on this forum! Oh and leek and cabbage is really yummy and low cal

Thursday: Finally! I was nearly on target with the calories!! And I've lost 200grams, that's maybe half a pound

Friday:

Tons of new year resolutioners in my step class tonight but it was actually nice b/c the class has been so dead lately. It definitely was inspiring to see all those people striving to change their lives for the better. All around pretty good day today.

I had a pretty good day today.

lunch: 1 container ww strawberry yogurt, a banana, and one cinnamon scone (my sweet tooth was calling and I just had to answer)
dinner: one burger (no cheese) on a sugar free whole wheat bun, one serving ruffles lite chips.
dessert: one little piece of my brother in law's birthday cake. I put so much work into it, I had to taste it.

Exercise: I did 2 miles on the treadmill! I was woozy afterward because of my headache but I still did it!

Drank 1 litre of water today.

My TOM showed up again today!!! wtf!!! It's probably my new BC pill throwing it out of whack. At least I know why i've been feeling so bloaty and ick. I might see my valentines day goal yet! As of yesterday I was already writing it off as the first goal not met.

How is everyone else today?!?!

Monday was a really good day for me. I finally feel like I am getting back on track for real this time. I went over on calories a little bit, but they were good calories not cookies or something. Lets hope I can stay on plan today too!!

Good day - went too far on calories, but 57 won't kill me. I'm really pumped to get these 25 lbs off for my anniversary. DH & I have been talking a lot about babies & it is working as really good motivation. Hope you all are having a good week.
