Hi
I'm back.. I'm going to try to keep this up... lost motivation as I hit a plateau.. I know that it's normal but I really hit a wall. I fell all the way off the wagon, I was ground down into the dirt. I am slowly emerging. Trying to find a new weight watcher meeting leader that will interest me. Here we go.. I went backwards by 10lbs. I'm back down 5lbs.. working slowly... oh and back over 300.. sigh..

I finally hit 50lbs!!!
So I'm down a total of 52.4lbs.. you are now reading a blog of someone under 300lbs! I'm excited but I still have a long way to go. I've read a lot of inspirational stories of women who've won their battle of the bulge and doing it over time. I'm done trying to look for the quick fix.. the fix is my health and conquering this the right way is the best way for me. I have so much to be thankful for, I continue to thank God on a daily basis when I've been blessed to see another day. I can feel myself growing spiritually and knowing that the steps that I'm taking in my life are inspiring those around me makes this all the more rewarding!
Stay Tuned!
Stay Tuned!

Today is Weigh in day...
To date I've lost 43.8lbs... last week I had a 1.8lb gain which I think was a lot of water weight. I've been hitting the gym hard.. eating has been on track with a few slips here and there but nothing excessive. My body is changing, I'm wearing a new dress today.. that is ... wait for it.. A SIZE SMALLER!!! I'm super excited about that but it's also giving me the desire to keep going.. today.. I think I will be down to a total of 48lbs.. fingers crossed.. that is sooo close to 50lbs. Then my next goal will be 75 then 100... I figure if I think about it in 25lb increments then it won't feel so overwhelming.
For breakfast I had coffee, oatmeal and a banana. I have a Healthy Choice entree for lunch.. and I'm going to grill chicken for dinner tonight. I'm excited ... still excited after 6 months in.
Talk you later!

Since my brother called me out...
I have not posted in a while, I feel like I've been really struggling with staying on track. Well... after coming back from vacation that is. It's hard when you're the only one who is trying to make good decisions about what you eat. I've been back and forth since I've been back for a week. I really focused today and I went to the gym yesterday.. .remembering this is a life change not a diet! I will be back later to update more

I'm back for real this time.. lol
I decided that I'm so close to losing 50lbs that I need to get back on track. I never fell all the way off but I was really loose with tracking. I think it's been a few weeks since I've used my online tracker for food. I still kept a running total in my head of what I was eating though. I've also been working out more regular.. I can run without wanting to pass out.. well after 20 seconds.. now I'm up to 30 seconds before I'm having a heart attack... kidding.. I feel better, my clothes are fitting differently.. I can't see the progress per say.. but others can. That makes me feel good, but also makes me feel like I was a beached whale before... I'm sticking through this till the end!

I'm BACK!!!!
May 23, 2011
So I took a break from posting.. I begin to feel like it wasn't helping me.. I felt like I dreaded posting. I figured it out.. I didn't want to post everyday about what I ate but how I felt. So here's so a new start!
I haven't fallen off.. I'm way over 100 days. In my absence I've received my 10% award, my 16 week award and my 25lbs award. I felt it was a little sad that I received my 25lbs before I got to 10%.. that meant I was way too big! Good thing, I said goodbye to that number in January and I'm not looking back.
My life has taken such a crazy turn. Turmoil causing highs and lows but I'm still not giving in. I'm won't say I haven't had my setbacks but I'm staying faithful. This summer we want to take our kids to the amusement park. Last year we went to Six Flags and I was so big I couldn't fit on any of the rides. I tried to act like I didn't care but I really wanted to break down and cry. So my goal this year is the fit.
So far I've lost 36lbs. I'm a little behind where I planned to be but that's not going to deter me. I have started to work out more and I can tell that it's making a difference. I can jog and play with my kids without getting winded.
Another thing happened, I met Julie.. she has been a true inspiration for me to get back to expressing myself.. so Julie.. thank you!
Well until next time.

Day 98.. I will catch up one day
Just an update about what's been going on. I've been in a state of depression.. I was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. This is a virus that causes inflammation of a nerve that affects one side of your face. I haven't given up on weight watchers, but I did take a break from my blog.. I didn't feel like I could write with the same enthusiasm. I do want to post that as of today I am 318.4lbs. I have lost a total of 33lbs since the start. I'm very excited and I celebrated with a Churro :)

Day 85.. I'M CAUGHT UP!
Thursday March 31st
I'm feeling worse this morning but I'm still mom so I'm pushing through.
I started this morning with my protein shake, it was hard because I really wanted a biscuit.. but I decided not to spend those.
For lunch I had Chinese, shrimp and broccoli, rice and an egg roll.
Dinner I had McDonald's.. but guess what.. I had a large diet coke, a quarter pounder and a side salad with my own fat free dressing.. so I didn't do too bad! I did snack on some candy from my childhood, peanut butter bars.. yummy!

Day 84... It's weigh day!
Wednesday March 30th
I started again this morning with my protein shake.. cookies and cream is awesome!
I like to dress and eat lighter on weigh in days.. I'm still sick but I'm pushing through.
For lunch I had a can of soup and a Hostess cupcake.. so let me tell you about this cupcake. I told my husband, no I don't want it.. he said oh come on it's just one.. SABOTAGE!
I go to WW.. jump on the scale.. I'm hoping for 1lb.. I get.. 3.6lbs lost.. WOW... in 12 weeks I've lost 27.8lbs. That's almost an average of 10lbs a month! I'm very proud of myself! I started at 351.2lbs and today I weight 323.4lbs!
We go to the buffet for dinner, I have a big salad, chicken (skin removed), greens, cabbage, mashed potatoes.. one roll covered in butter and half piece of carrot cake. It was a cheat meal of sorts, not sure how to count it so I exhausted the rest of my points for the day!

Tuesday March 29th
I'm starting to feel sick. I hate this but I feel I just need to push through it.
For breakfast I made my protein shake.. and out the door!
For lunch my friend took me to Chili's. I ordered the chicken fajita lunch sandwich with a salad.. I didn't know it came with fries! She order chips and salsa, I didn't do too bad with those. I didn't eat the bread on the sandwich to save some points.
For dinner.. went back to Chili's .. I wanted to order the chicken fajitas but I couldn't and get all that I wanted.. it's dumb :( So I ended up ordering fried shrimp with broccoli and black beans.

Day 82.. Almost caught up!
Monday March 28th
Today I have to start my day as a single mom since my husband works on overnight calls. I get up and get ready, get the kids together and I make my protein shake.. I'm out the door!
I didn't get a chance to pack a workout bag and I'm super busy at work. Mad I missed my workout!
I have a dentist appointment, and I don't know about you all but I really hate eating after I get my teeth clean. I'm pressed for time to get back to work so I stop at Boston Market. I figure I could make good choices and stay on track. I got a 3 piece chicken meal, steamed veggies and new potatoes cornbread and a diet coke.
For dinner, we had spaghetti and broccoli.

Sunday March 27th
I start this morning with a protein shake and a banana. I figure after the choices I made this weekend I needed to have a better start.
The sermon for today was amazing, about being active and doing God's work. It inspired me to get involved in more activities.
For lunch we went to Jack Stack bbq ... I had a grilled chicken salad with ranch. Well.. when we left.. we went for what.. CUPCAKES.. you know I can be mad all I want that I have these temptations but at the end of the day I'm putting it in my mouth, no one is forcing me. I had 1 cupcake.
For dinner I decided to get Chinese.. figured it was a filling food with a low point value. I had chicken and broccoli, steamed rice and an egg roll.

Lunch: 12 points

Today I'm taking my mother to dinner for her birthday. We're going to Cheddars so I have to make good choices leading up to it.

For lunch I had ramen noodles.. it was quick and easy :)
So now comes dinner.. first we had to wait for 1 1/2hrs for a table so in the meantime we walked the mall, I got a smoothie that my kids ended up finishing.
Dinner.. I ordered salmon, broccoli and broccoli and cheese. My mom wanted an appetizer, queso and chips. I decided I would have a few, man their queso is sooo good! I was still careful not to go over board.
Dinner was wonderful! I had a cupcake for dessert

Day 79... I love playing catch up
Friday March 25th
I bought some more protein powder.. the kind from Walmart. So here's the thing, I thought I was buying chocolate but I bought cookies and cream... I was pretty bummed but I decided to give it a try.. NOT BAD AT ALL!!! I dumped a scoop in my coffee.
Today was an odd day, we had a "fun activity" at work today. I was the bearded lady.. pretty sexy one too! I missed my lunch with my friend so I ended up not going until later. In the meantime I ate a turkey sandwich, a deli creation thing. It wasn't bad..
I had a late lunch with my friend .. it all went down hill at this point!
I had a California Roll and half of a Las Vegas Roll... that roll is deep fried with cream cheese :(
After that I stopped for cupcakes.. I went in to get a few and ended up with a dozen!
We went to my in laws to hang out this evening and we had pizza. I had the thin crust from Pappy Murphy's, the Mediterranean Chicken... it was so good I had 4 slices. I thought oh this isn't bad.. I looked it up when I got home and OMG.. I thought eating a salad with fat free dressing would help fill me up but that pizza was so thin that it took a few pieces.
After dinner I ate one cupcake.. there isn't a way for me to gage the points of those cupcakes so I count them higher than maybe what they really are.
Breakfast: 3 points
Lunch: 29 points.. YIKES
Dinner: 20 points Double YIKES
Dessert: 8 points
I freaking used 60 points today.. NO BUENO!!! I tapped in to 8 of my weekly points

Thursday March 24..
Today.. I tried yoga! I thought it was cool at first then I realized it was too advanced for me.. I realized that I needed a little more flexibility before I tackle that class again. I do want to try a beginners yoga though.
For breakfast I had 1/4 of a donut and a cup of coffee. I love it when people bring in donuts, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy :)
Before lunch, I went to the yoga class.. it was a good experience.
I stopped on the way back and grabbed a salad with grilled chicken and a pasta e fagioli soup. It was very filling!
For dinner I made chicken fajitas. I used low carb tortillas, 2% cheese and salsa. It's a low point dinner and filling at the same time.
Breakfast: 3 points
Lunch: 9 points
Snack: 2 points (forgot to mentioned I munched on some chips)

Day 77.. Weigh Day!
Wednesday March 23rd
Guess what I had this morning.. 1 PIECE OF SAUSAGE.. lol and coffee! It was some protein, I cooked breakfast for the kiddos and I grabbed a piece of sausage before I left the house.
Today is weigh day so I'm trying to be extra good. I went to the gym with some friends, I make fun of them for things they forgot.. ie, sports bras, towels.. and I forgot my tennis shoes. I tried to run barefoot but that was soo painful. I ended up on the stationary bike, I need to find a more comfortable pad for that thing. I finished with some crunches.. which prompted muscle spams.. that's a good thing right??
After I left my hubby brought me a grilled chicken salad from Burger King.. it was very good! I was full and ready to go! I snacked on some dark chocolate turtles.
Finally, time to weigh in..
I lost... 2lbs!! I total of 24.2lbs lost.. I'm on a roll.. this weight lifting is really paying off!
For dinner I we had fried chicken, skin removed. Mashed potatoes, green beans and I treated myself to 2 biscuits.

Day 76.. Woo hoo.. catching up!
Tuesday March 22nd.. IT'S MY MOMMY'S BIRTHDAY!
I started this morning again with coffee.. I promise one day soon I will do better!
For lunch I grabbed some Chinese food, I picked the veggies as the side but knowing they cook them in oil I counted 2 points for it. I had chicken and string bean and teriyaki chicken with light sauce.
I went to the gym after work and got my weight lifting workout in.. I felt pretty good. We picked up the kids and grabbed dinner at Denny's.. kids eat free.. YAY!
I'm not sure I made the best decision, I had a Spicy Cowboy beef patty thing.. I made sure all of my sides were veggies though just in case it was the worst thing ever. I had green beans and a salad with ranch dressing. I asked for the dressing on the side so I could control how much.

Day 75... I think this is a milestone!
This morning started with ... NOTHING.. horrible.. but I was soo busy.. I need to plan better to have something to grab for quick meals!
For lunch I went with my friend for sushi.. I had egg drop soup, a California roll and 3 pieces of a Las Vegas Roll.. IT WAS WONDERFUL! I can't eat that often though. Afterwards we stopped at a new cupcake place, I picked strawberry shortcake.. it was soo nasty it tasted just like dirt... well at least I have to tell myself that so I don't go back every day!
For dinner we went to planet sub.. I got a Tuscan chicken sandwich with mushrooms and sundried tomatoes. I had a Greek salad on the side.. I couldn't figure out the points for the sandwich because it's not listed on their website. I figured it was the same as their chicken parm. At that point I had 27 points left for the day so I decided to just count them all and not ate anything else with a point value.
Breakfast: 0 points
Lunch: 17 points
Snack: 8 points (cupcake)
Dinner: 27 points
I figured all of my points for today.. so none left!

Day 74... Sunday.. wow...
So I started this morning really good.. ... .....
I had yogurt, a banana and a small fat free cappuccino ... that was the best part of what I ate today.
We went to a buffet with my church for dinner. I started great with a salad with lite Italian dressing. I had a piece of steak, 1 chicken leg with the skin removed, green beans, asparagus, 1 roll, some chocolate covered marshmallows and strawberries. A couple of bites of carrot cake, about 4 fried mushrooms, 2 pieces of fried fish.. I was soo stuffed! I decided today I won't track .. I gave myself a day off..
For dinner later that evening I had 2 slices of chicken supreme pizza and a large salad with fat free dressing.. so I'm not sure of my points from this day but I won't head down that road again for a while!

Day 73.. it's Saturday!
I got up to cook this morning.. and I wasn't feeling it. So we went out.. I thought I made a good choices. I order 2 eggs over medium.. sometimes I wonder if cooks are bothered when I ask for eggs over medium because rarely do I get them.. they are either over hard or over easy.. but these eggs were PERFECTION!! I asked for wheat toast dry with butter on the side so I could control my own. Ham as my meat selection and a side of potatoes. I had coffee.. I blindly poured in half and half.. the little individual containers .. well I thought to measure AFTERWARDS... each container is about 2 tbsp of creamer.. So after I had my 2nd cu I measured 1 tbsp for my 3rd, better late than never right :)
I didn't eat lunch.. I was so busy with errands that it slipped my mind.. not eating = not good!
We met friends for dinner at Chili's.. They put chips and salsa out on the table. .I was sooo hungry that I dove in.. I had 10 maybe 12 chips max.. I didn't go too crazy.. now my kids on the other hand.. again can put away some food..
I ordered the grilled salmon with shrimp, black beans and broccoli. It was soo good.. I was afraid of the points but I decided to just go for it.
When I got home and added up my points I was very proud of myself.. so I treated myself to a full serving of chocolate covered macadamia nuts!
Breakfast: 19 points

Dinner: 17 points including the chips and salsa!
