Easter round up.

Well I lost .4 lbs this week. Not too bad what with the extra sweets jumping in my mouth all weekend. I also didn't get any walking in since school was canceled on thursday and no school fri and mon for the holiday when I went in yesterday I did 10 laps forgetting that I should start out slow again and boy am I sore today. I hope I learn one day to smarten up lol.

Ten for Ten.

This weeks marks ten weeks since I went back to ww and I have lost 10 lbs. Not too bad if you ask me lol. I have been doing good walking. I am hoping to start doing exercise videos as well. I'll try with the kids this weekend and make it a bit of fun.

Easter weekend and I've got plans for my points. I'll take my portion of the treats and portion them out deciding how many points I want to use then date them and hide them so I can only eat them on the designated week. I will be having cake and ice cream on Sunday as its ds's birthday that is why I am hiding the easter stuff for later lol.

Went shopping woohoo

We got our income tax back so I got some money for clothes. I went out today and bought 6 or7 new shirts ( fibro fog can't remember how many) anyway I was able to go to walmart and buy them the sizes were either large or extra large normally if I am able to find clothes there they are 1x so I am majorly thrilled and can't wait till I am at goal to see what size I'll need. They had fabulous sales ranging from$2.00-8.00 and some of the 7to8 were new stock so I am wondering if those were regular price if they are I'll be so glad because I loved them all and had a hard time chosing.

I also bought a new pair of sneakers as my old ones started hurting my ankles today its strange because I was fine monday and yesterday. Oh well I'll be great for tomorrow.

While I was heading for the cash I saw some purses (I have been looking since Nov for one) I found one that I loved but needed to get a smaller wallet so found one of them price for each was 9.99 I pushed the cart a little farther and saw an awesome purse with wallet for 14.99 so I got that one and the wallet is small enough that I'll be able to just put it in my pocket when I'm out running about with the kids( I hate having a purse when I'm with the kids I always think I'm gonna set it down to tend to them and forget it).

Oh I forgot to post that I lost one more pound this week its nice seeing the pounds dropping now I've got to get to the toning up thats something I didn't bother with last time and I'm feeling that I really do need to this time since theres been three kids since and you know how that goes lol.

I am going to try to get my weight loss ticker posted over hear so it will update automatically so I won't have to post it every week.

New week. New stuff

I did well with the core plan. I lost 2.4 lbs this week. Brings my total up to 8.8 I hope to get some exercise in this week and make it to 10 lbs for next week. I have switched my day to get weighed in on Thursdays and I'll stay for the meeting as well. They say it easier to take and keep the weight off when you go to meetings.

Beware of the Ice

That is my new motto. I went to get groceries yesterday and had a heck of a time getting the cart to the car because of all the ice in the parking lot. We had a nice warm day on Tues so there was some melting and where ever there were puddles froze overnight and made crusty patches which are murder to push a cart through. I found it a little easier to pull the cart rather than push and was almost to my car when I slipped I tried with my left foot and hand to stop myself but landed pretty well on my tailbone. and slid under the cart as far as one could go I am pretty sore and my right shin has a sore because that is what stopped me from sliding under the damn cart. I was sore all over last night but a nice warm bed and good night sleep and I'm not too bad off today. A bit of a headache and some pain when areas get touched( hips for some reason and neck right knee and left shin.) I do not see any bruises and am surprised as I landed hard and it hurt real bad. I don't know how long it takes for bruises to show but I presumed before now oh well.

I got weighed in yesterday before getting groceries and lost.4 lbs. This week I am trying the core program and it seems to be going well so far. I am hoping to get some exercise going but will not be walking on the skating rinks that the town call sidewalks.

I tried a recipe that I saw on The Biggest Loser" It was sauteed veggies and chicken with marinara sauce I served it on spagetti squash and it was a big hit even the boy ate more than one bite ( he had two of the summer squash, two of the chicken pieces and three or four bites of the spaggetti squash.) This is one recipe that I will make again but not too often as I dont' want them to get tired of it lol. Anyhow I was pleased that they all liked it anyway.

Sunday roundup

Slow going on the weight loss another low week this week. .08 lbs it puts me at 6 lbs total so its not so bad. They say that if you lose the weight slow it will stay off better so I'm sure to keep it off it I ever get it all off lol. I had to lose almost 30 total so at this rate i'll be down to goal at christmas lol. I am hoping that I can get into exercising at least two or three times a week I don't like to exercise so its a struggle. I do have a hip hop dvd and if its appropriate for the kids then i'll do it with the girls as they love hiphop. I hope to check it out tomorrow after coffee with the girls.

Dh and I went out last night for our valentines/anniversary dinner at an italian resteraunt it was really good we shared seafood appetizer and salad and I had seafood fetuchini and he had chicken rotini with prochutto everything was very good. Then we got desert we had wanted a chocolat trio but they were out so dh got biscotti and I got tiramisu neither one was that great but might have been had we not had our hearts set on the chocolate ones. We will definetly go there again.

Happy Birthday

To Dh. He asked for chinese food so I bought eggrolls and made chicken fried rice, chicken balls, egg foo yong, wonton soup( first time making this) and for a surprise fortune cookies(first time with these also). Supper was great but I'll be finding new recipes for the two new ones as they didn't turn out as I had hoped they were good but I feel could be tastier so I'll look.

I haven't sat down and figured the points for this meal yet I did well with amounts that i took and didn't use any sauce for the chicken balls and did not have egg rolls( I know they are about 4 or5 points and I usually have two so I stayed away from them all together).

I did well with water again today but didn't get exercise in I find it hard with the volunteer stuff this week so hopefully I'll get into the swing of it next week.
