MrsVegan00 - What do you do? I read that you said graveyard shift. No worries I think weekends are hard on all of us.
MonteCristo - Great job today! shan84 - Sounds like you had a great time. One more hour until I get to see TBL on TV, I am so excited! |
Shan- great job on the hike. How long have you been in SK? I lived in Japan for 2 years. It was a great experience.
Today I walked 11,733 steps, but none counted as aerobic (oh well)...Tomorrow is another day. |
Hey Mel. Good job on the steps. Thats such a high number! I'm loving SK. I actually live on an island off of the southern tip of SK. It's about an hour to the mainland by ferry. My weeks are pretty repetitive but I like having the routine. I teach M-F 8:30am-5:00pm and I spend the weekends relaxing and exploring the island. I live right on the beach so that was a big draw originally too. I actually came to SK 7 months ago, but lost my first job when the school closed. I've been with this job now for 3 months almost.
Sorry for the long answer. :) GO RED TEAM!!!!! |
Well I didn't do too good today at all. Breakfast started out okay. I had 1 banana (2 pts), and 1 90 calorie strawberry bar (1 pt). I had to eat an early lunch today, at 10 am, and had Subway. I ate a 6" turkey breast sandwich on wheat with american cheese (5 pts), but I also had 1.5 chocolate chip cookies with it (8 pts.). I then got hungry around 3 and my boyfriend ended up getting Taco Bell so I had a Nacho Belle Grande with just meat and cheese (17 PTS!). That was my biggest mistake with food today. Then while watching the biggest loser I had some baked fries and one homemade taco (not sure the points on this one). The other bad thing is when I went to exercise we realized that something came loose inside the elliptical so I can't use it until my dad fixes it. I ended up spending some much needed time on homework instead of exercising. The only good thing about today is I drank plenty of water.
I WILL be better tomorrow! |
I was at about 2025 for calories on Monday, and then was at 1835 yesterday. Not too bad.

Just in case anyone hasn't figured it out, I'm posing my plan in italics, and then I come back and bold what I actually did.
Early Breakfast - 1c Total Cinnamon & 1c 2% milk - 310 calories Late Breakfast - sausage biscuit with jam - 333 calories Morning Snack - 1 slice coconut cake - 456 calories Lunch - Macaroni & Cheese and 1/2 sweet potato - 316 calories Dinner - 1 slice stuffed crust pizza - 380 calories Total - 1795 calories Exercise - 55 minutes walking That is horrible! I can hardly bear to post it. I knew today was going to be bad with the cake at work and pizza for dinner, so I ate a bit lighter the last two days, but why did I eat a second breakfast?!?!? Ugh! Fortunately I am still under my average of 1500 per day, but I'm still not happy with myself. |
Hello everyone. Today was a much better day as far as food goes. I even woke up to a 1 lb loss, even with the bad stuff I ate yesterday! I've decided that the strategy I'm going to use for this challenge is a mixture of WW points and counting calories. When I go by points throughout the day I tend to eat less. But I have been going over by about 4 pts per day, but still staying in my calorie range. Here is what I ate today:
Breakfast: 1 packet of High Fiber Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal -- 3 pts (160 cal) Snack: 2 servings Chocolate flavored mini-rice cakes -- 2 pts (120 cal) 1/2 Dill pickle -- 0 pts (0 cal) Lunch: 1 Lean Pocket Pepperoni Pizza -- 6 pts (280 cal) 1 serving White Cheddar Cheez-its -- 3 pts (150 cal) 1/2 serving roasted n salted cashews -- 2 pts (80 cal) Dinner: 1 McDonalds Chipolte BBQ Crispy Chicken Wrap (was supposed to be grilled but they got my order wrong) -- 8 pts (330 cal) 1 McDonalds Fruit and Walnut Salad -- 4 pts (210 cal) Totals: 28 pts; 1330 calories |
