Mooo

Anyone (Jennifer, since you are the other person that reads this blog...) have trouble getting 2-3 milks in each day? I really struggle with this area.
Thanks.
Today has been easier with my points, I have not felt as hungry all day.
I also just finished 30 minutes on the elliptical. It was a challenge but a great stress relief. I really do like the feeling after a good sweat.
How was your Monday?

Day one

I started things today.
I dread Mondays, every week, every month.
I decided that tomorrow will be hard because my sweet husband has to return to work after being with us for two weeks. Its been so wonderful, so now back into reality. So, I started today.
In some ways, I very much look forward to routine and structure.
Today I stayed within my weight watchers points. This was hard. It will get easier. I have just made a habit out of snacking mindlessly. It really helps me to plan ahead.
I also did 20 minutes on our new equipment! It looks easy in my head...20 minutes was enough to make me sweat, but that had to be enough for day one! Looking forward to making that a daily thing. I really did enjoy a good sweat.

A new beginning...take 2

I too am ready for a healthier year. I don't have pregnancy excuses, just bad habits. I am not one for New Year's resolutions, but I do have goals.

Goal #1: Lose 17 pounds to start

Goal #2: Work out 5 of 7 days. Even if it is something small like yoga on the Wii Fit. Movement.

Goal #3: Give up Dr. Pepper. I know...I have until my birthday to give it up! Wish me luck!

Us sisters are ready to do this! Anyone else on board? Hello? Testing...testing...:)

A New Beginning!!!!!!!!!!


Yes, its Saturday night!


Yes, I am motivated!!!


I have not been driven to lose weight for quite some time as I got pregnant and have been trying to take care of my family's new needs. I am ready.


I do not like New Year's resolutions...but this year, I am making them. Really, they are goals. I am READY!


I am starting tomorrow. No day will be a failure, just a learning curve. I am ready!


Are you?


Look at this beauty...

Yes, Chloe but really, the elliptical machine! It was delivered this morning and my amazing husband put it together! I am excited for great workouts. I am ready!!!!!!!

Day 3

As you can see, my fears came true.  I didn't do as well today.  I had testing today, and the new drinking water thing is making me go to the bathroom, so I had to pace myself, so I didn't get my water in.  Then, at Fuddruckers, I had the "I don't wanna stay in points" attitude.  Stinks.  Oh well, there is always tomorrow.  At least I have one green up there.

Day 2

Today wasn't too bad.  I had a Dr. Pepper earlier in the day to perhaps avoid a headache that I developed last night.  I had all my water by the time I got home and had stuffed sole.  YUM-O.

Here is my chart of the day:
Yesterday I had 0 veggies, today I had 2 servings.  I still put red, because I am supposed to have 5 servings.  But, little by little right?  Habits are hard to break and reform.  I am a little nervous about tomorrow night, since I have a birthday dinner at Fuddruckers, and they don't really post their nutritional information.  I will just try my best, but I do have weekly points.  Let you know!

Day One

I decided to start Weight Watchers today.  My weight has been creeping up and I am not okay with it, but I am the ONLY one who can do something about it.  So, I am going to start small and try to record everyday how I met my goals.
