Good Morning Chicks!!!
Tootsie - I think you gave great advice!!! My parents were always mindful about wasting food so I was part of the clean plate club as well. Mom never did our portions either once we got up to 5-6. So like you I never made my son clean his plate. If we sat down to eat and I thought he had not eaten enough I would say "ok you have to eat two more bites." That is probably not good advice for our kids either but better than finish your plate.
Betsy - Woohoo!!! Awesome Job on 13 pounds for the month!!! Soooo Proud of you!!!
LOL I probably could use a 13% grade while mowing. I got in about 6000 steps yesterday in the yard alone.
Cindy - You go girl!!!
I am so proud of you for getting out of couch potato mode! Not only are you inspired you are very inspiring as well!!!
Everyone else - I hope you are doing good on this beautiful Wednesday!
The past couple of days have been busy at work, no time to walk so as I mentioned I have been mowing the grass. I still have more to do but have a meeting tonight so that won't happen. Yesterday I got in 8900 steps. I have been doing great on food.
In the evening I have not really been hungry before the yard work so when I come in it seems to late to eat something big so I just have a small peanut butter and jelly sandwich. That sounds so fattening and full of calories but I use 40 calorie per slice bread, 1 T peanut butter and 1 T jelly so it's about 250 calories or so for my evening meal. Anyway, I have been under 1400 calories the past 2 days so that is good for me. Last night I only used 1 slice of bread so even better.
Oh and I have been doing great on the water. This morning I filled up 5 quarts to drink... I will be lucky to get in 3 of those but that is way better than before. Well I must go get ready for work.
I hope you all have a wonderful Perfectly On Plan Wednesday!
