Week 6 |
I was surprised to see the scale down to 193. All week long it was my TOM and never saw the scales in the 193's. I was at a training for 3 days this week where lunch and breakfast were catered, and there was A LOT of time just sitting. Some of my goods and bads for the week are:
Goods:
~ My first & third day I didn't have a single danish, donut, or bagel during breakfast. I actually stopped and got myself a mini can of tuna salad with crackers and had that for breakfast instead.
~ They had cookies with lunch every day and I didn't have a single one. I actually took a bit of one to satisfy my craving and then threw it away. (I was on my period people.....do you realize how hard that is?!)
~ They provided great healthy lunches each day (wraps, chicken stirfry, and chef salads) which was super helpful.
~ On chef salad day I took lettuce, tomatoes, fresh turkey, ham, and grilled chicken, and used 1/4 of the lite ranch dressing packet
~ I didn't have a single soda. I would have loved a diet coke to get me through the last 3 boring hours of each day!!
~ I drank a ton of water. What else is there to do when you are sitting for hours? I also went to the bathroom a lot....like at least once an hour. I don't think I have a bladder.
~ Jake worked every night this week, so I would get home and he would immediately leave, which means...no going to the gym for me, but yesterday I got out that double stroller and pounded some pavement. It was the perfect night for a walk! Today I am heading going for a good walk and tomorrow is ZUMBA!
~ I made a friend! lol. And I am making her come to Zumba with me tomorrow!!
Bads:
~ I forgot breakfast my second day and had 1/2 bagel with cream cheese. I enjoyed every second of it
~After lunch the 2nd day I had a dinner roll with some butter. I also enjoyed every second of it.
~ I didn't work out at all Tues and Wed, and was sitting 8hr during each day of training. Made me feel super guilty.
~ I had a few too many dum dum lollipops that they were passing out.
~ I brought some chex mix with me one day and grazed the whole darn day long.
Anyway. You win some battles and lose some others. I am excited to make a healthy version of eggplant parm this week!! If enough people are interested I will write up the recipe.
Have a great weekend girlies!
You are so cute!!! You did pretty darn good. I would have a donut a day. I have a slight addiction to all things doughy. LOL
ReplyDeleteHave fun at Zumba!
Yum, share this eggplant parm recipe. ;) I've made it before, but never healthy! LOL
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with Dawnya, you're super cute with your lil' skinny jeans.
I'm so thrilled with your good choices and actually did a little shoulder shrug on the not as healthful choices. Life is living dear, not stressing the small stuff. I think you made enough healthful choices to compensate and your scale apparently agreed! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI think you did great! The weight is really starting to come off! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your awesome loss! I love your blog and I've been lurking for a while so this comment is really just to congratulate you, and also tell you I'm not a stalker :-p
