Before After

Happy Hump Day!

We're on the downhill side of the week so that's always a good thing.  I've been good & walked my mile everyday this week even in the pouring rain.  For some reason, the rain makes me feel even more motivation to keep going.  I think it's because I'm not sweating like a pig when I'm out there - or @ least I can't tell that I am.  :)

I found a great article yesterday that I wanted to share.  I can't seem to paste a direct link so here's the scoop- it's on the Goodhousekeeping website titled "15 Foods to help you lose".  One of the foods is eggs so last night I made myself a few fried eggs in extra virgin olive oil (also one of the 15 foods) and seperated them out into individual dishes w/a slice of multi grain bread in each so I can bring them to work w/me.   Since I don't usually eat breakfast, I'm hoping if I start, it will prevent me from overeating @ lunch.  Plus, this morning a co-worked brought in Buger King breakfast for everyone and I was able to avoid it completely since I had my own breakfast w/me.  YEAH BABY!!

I also found a little cheat method in regards to my morning caffeine.  I found these little flavor packets for water called Power Edge.  You add them to your water bottle and they have caffeine in them.  Only 10 calories a packet, I figure it's gotta be better than 3 cans of my diet soda.

I talked w/A a bit yesterday and he told me he doesn't want me to weight myself yet.  He said he doesn't want me to lose my motivation and I think he's right in his thought process.  It's been about a week now and I figure I'll go another week before I get on the scale.  Hopefully, I be pleasantly surprised.  :)

Before I go, I just want to say thank you to those of you that have posted comments.  It's helping me TREMENDOUSLY!!!  Knowing there are other women out there going through the same things keeps me more motivated to stay on track.  Not only for myself but hopefully, I can keep some of you motivated also.  :)

Have a fabulous Hump Day everyone!  :)

Way to Go!

Great job on getting your walking in!  Egg is good for you (if you have high cholestrol just avoid the yolk and eat up some whites).  The protein will also last you a while in your tummy.  For breakfast i typically toast half of a whole wheat bagel or english muffin, top it with an egg and then some turkey breast or fat free ham.  Delicious and it lasts me until lunch and gives me energy.  I also get the Egglands best eggs to get my Omega 3 in as well!  I hate taking fish oil vitamins because i feel that i taste it for the rest of the day.

Keep up the good work!  You can totally do this.  Remeber to eat breakfast as if you are a Queen, eat lunch as if you are a princess and eat dinner as if you are a Pauper!
