Crock Pot Lover

So I have been getting really good restriction. YES!!! I don't have another appointment to get a fill and Iprobably won't make one until I start to loose some more weight and loose a little restriction from that. I am being super cautious for obvious reasons. Today I could barely eat a whole lean cuisine, I think I'm doing pretty good restriction wise, wouldn't you say?

I am trying to incorporate more fiber into my diet. I switched up regular splenda for splenda with fiber, tastes the same so why not? I bought a box of Fiber Selects Wheat Thins for my drawer at work. 13 crackers for 5 grams of fiber. They are good too, they keep me out of the candy jar which I was seriously having an issue with! Man o man the band does not keep that chocolate from going down lol. "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips" Oh so true!!
I am also trying to eat a couple of apples per day. They are among the highest fiber fruits.

One thing I have learned to do it to stop trying to eat like a dieter. You know depriving myself of the things I really want. I have decided to eat what I want, just not all that I've made lol. Make for eating to be much more satisfying. I have a new love for crock pots. They are wonderful! If anyone has any good slow cooker recipes, please pass them along!!!

So I've been much busier, to say the least now that I am working full time. Sorry I'm still working on my time management skills when I get home and blogging is just one thing I have not had the chance to get in!!

There isn't much to say really. I have no worked out since I started the job, like I said my time management skills have been really really crappy. I decided last night that I was going to do 30 minutes on the tredmill every day when I get home. So from like 6:00-6:30 and that will still leave me plently of time to get laundry and meals ect. done as well.

My meal planning has been pretty terrible lately too. I haven't been doing it at all.....GUILTY! Man I am like the bad bad bandster right now lol. You know I don't feel bad though, life gets in the way sometimes but as long as you jump back on the wagon in a timley manner, you are all good. Which is exactly what I am doing.

You know it is hard though because as I type I have gotten 3 phone calls from 3 different people in my office telling me about all the food that is in our conference room and that I should go and get some. BUT I WILL NOT! lol I want too...but I am going to refrain and eat the lunch I brought because I know EXACTLY how many calories are in it. I'm starving though just to let you know so this is really hard lol.

Well I don't even know what to title this blog........but someone hold me accountable and email me tomorrow please and make sure that I go my butt on the treadmill tonight!!!! Thanks!!!

Serious Business

A 4lbs weight loss from last week feels like a great kick off, but I'm ready to get down to some serious business. My 2nd short term goal is to loose 50lbs, and I am only 15lbs from that goal. I'm going to commit myself to loosing 15lbs in the next 5 weeks, that is only 3lbs per week and completely doable. I am really tired of saying I've lost 35lbs, I really want that number to go up and watch out my lovely because when Breanne wants something, she shall have it lol.

I use to be like really competitive with things such as weight loss but as I've gotten older I just want to do what is best for me and in the time frame that is best for me. Of course I want all this weight off like yesterday, but there has to be a reason why things are moving slowly. I'm a total believer in everything happens for a reason so my chin is up today as I move short and hit my next goal!!! Okay so we will call tomorrow Day........Start 2/12/10........End March 19th. Anyone else in???

4lbs Lost This Week....Sort of....

So since my unfill back in October I have been going up and down up and down in weight. For the longest time I was around 220 and then come to find out a couple weeks ago it was 223, which was unacceptable in my book so I got back on the wagon, plus I got restriction so that helped a lot!!! Anyway so yeah I lost 4lbs this week getting back to 219, but I'm not like happy about that. I am sure you are mostly like me and would not consider it a weight loss until I get below 217 which is where I was back in October, but I am happy about the 4lbs!

I had lost of people at church this morning telling me how "skinny" I looked lol they all use the word skinny but seriously you cant tell a 219lb girl that she is looking skinny haha because its just so far from the truth lol. I know what they meant though and it was sweet. It's nice to hear. Anyway while my husband and dad watch the super bowl tonight I am going to see Dear John with my mother. Channing Tatum is my celebrity crush, I love him lol. I have never had a celebrity crush until I saw him in Step Up a few years ago. Anyway that is all that is happening with me!!!

Crazy Schedule

Hi my lovelys,

=) Sorry I have not blogged in like a week! My schedule has been absolutely insane!!! I'm working my new job this week from 8-1 and then I have enough time to get home do some laundry and eat lunch before I have to leave for the old job 4-8pm. Next week I start full time with the new job 8:30-5:30 and this Saturday is my last day with the old job. Geesh I've not had much time to breathe never mind workout! I was doing sooo good the previous 2 weeks, working out almost everyday. As you can tell I had no where to fit it in this week!! I could have gotten up at the crack of dawn but I am a sleeper and I just knew that would not work for me. I guess it doesn't matter much though seeing I've barely had anytime to eat. I have pretty much eaten 3 meals a day everyday this week and have had no time to snack! That is a good thing though which I am happy about!!!!

I have not weighed myself to see if I have lost any but I have people have been randomly calling me skinny lately so I am guessing that is a good sign!! I'm dying to know how you are all doing, I feel so disconnected this week! Please let me know!!!
