My 3rd week

Well, I did it!  I lost 2 more pounds.  I'm thrilled.  I wasn't feeling too confident going in, and I don't know why.  I tracked every single thing that went into my mouth this week, and I worked out like I normally do.  Maybe the fundraiser on Saturday threw me off?  Who knows!  All I know is I'm tickled pink with my loss.  I'm soooo close to 2 goals I have.  One being getting below a certain weight, and the other one is hitting my first 5%.  WW goes with 5% first, then 10%.  Hitting my first 5% will feel great!  I can't wait to do it.  I shouldn't have any problems doing it next week. 

A few people have asked me to give a run down of what I eat in a day and what I do for exercise.  In this blog, I'll give a run down of what I eat, and next time I'll talk about my workouts. 

On Tuesdays, I eat super light.  I don't like to go heavy.  I'm a little neurotic when it comes to weigh in days.  =)  I will eat a great breakfast.  Usually oatmeal, (I like the quick oats) and I add in fresh fruit, some fat free milk, and half a sweet and low packet.  I know it sounds gross, but sometimes I'll add in my healthy oil for the day.  With the fruit and the milk, I can't even taste it.  I have to get it in at some point in the day, and I'll be honest, I don't always get it in.  I forget about it.  I know, bad Kimmie!  lol
And then for lunch on Tuesdays I'll do a salad.  Again, I'll sometimes do my oil here if I didn't do it at breakfast.  I'll use it as my dressing and then do pepper and some extra veggies.  If I have avocado, I'll slice up a few pieces.  Literally it's only like 3 pieces.  I don't overdo it.  And I'll also drink less water on Tuesdays.  I don't want water weight for my weigh in.  I drink sooo much water throughout the day.  I usually drink anywhere from 60 to 100 ounces in a day.  Depends on the day, and depends on what I eat.  And yes, for those of you wondering, I'm always running to the bathroom.  lol  I stop drinking water around 1pm on Tuesday and not eat or drink anything after that so I have plenty of time to get it all out of my system before I weigh in.  I know!  I'm crazy.  I also wear my lightest clothes.  If I could, I would strip down to nothing.  lol  I'm silly like that.  I usually wear the same clothes every week.  I know!!!  =) 

On a normal day, I'll eat oatmeal or Multi Grain Cheerios.  I'm loving the peanut butter ones right now.  With some banana in it, it's delicious!!  Once Reese goes down for her morning nap, I usually sneak in a little snack.  Maybe another piece of fruit, or a yogurt.  Sometimes both.  Oh, I'll have a hard boiled egg once in a while too.  They are yummy and high in protein.  Just depends on how hungry I am.  For lunch, I tend to want crunch, so I'll have a salad, or I'll have a WW meal.  I need to get a little more creative with my lunches.  Lunch is hard for me because I'm not always super hungry.  I sometimes have to force myself to eat.  Occasionally I'll have a whole grain piece of bread toasted, with a tablespoon of peanut butter and that's enough for me.  Dinner is my hardest meal, because most nights I'm not home.  I don't get home anywhere between 7p-8p.  I HATE eating that late.  But again, I have to.  I tend to do WW meals for dinner too.  Other nights, I'll have something light.  A yogurt.  Brown rice, with salmon or chicken and veggies.   I like my sweets so I tend to have a little something after dinner.  WW has little snack bars that I love.  They are yummy, and hit the spot. 

It's all about portion control.  If you measure everything and account for everything you eat, you will have control.

At my meeting tonight, there was a great little quote that our leader told us.  I LOVE it so I'm going to share it here!  It'll be my quote tonight. 

"If you bite it, write it
If you drink it, ink it
If you snack it, track it
If you nibble it, scribble it
If you steal it, reveal it
If you grab it, blab it
If you lick it, Bic it
If it goes in your smacker, it goes in your Tracker
If you ingest it, you guessed it -
Grab your pencil before you utensil"

Hope everyone has a great week!
"Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels"
