The past few days have been pretty crazy. We had some big time floods here in Snoqualmie. I've been down in the historic part of town helping a friend demo the bottom two feet of her two apartment units. Carpet, underlay, wall boards, insulation...all had to be torn out and thrown out. A wet, awful job. Was a good workout though!
Weighed in yesterday at 256. Found out that the WW meeting is on Tuesday morning at 11:30 so I am excited about that. Perhaps I can get back on track.
When I stop with the water, I eat more. Drink more, eat less.

January 5th already? Cuh-razy... 256.0
Yesterday was a great day. Meals went as planned, even had ice cream last night and enjoyed it without regret. It's all part of the plan...
Today, I was late on the planning, but here we go:
Breakfast:
This will pose a dilemma... I think a hot chocolate and drink it slow? Will be a challenge, but I think if I focus on the conversation and be mindful of drinking it slow, then it will do. Veggie plate if they have it. Worried that today is too thin on food and then I will be starving...

Staying true...
I did fairly well, with some derailments today. I did follow the meal plan almost to the T. I had some homemade nougat, some trail mix (1/2 cup) and a handful of M&Ms. I did NOT have my end of night snack, so on the whole, I think I did ok.
Tomorrow's plan:
Pre-workout:
Tomorrow's plan:
Pre-workout:
- grape nuts serving
- banana
- omelette-2eggs, veggies, cheese
- out at Whole Foods...salad bar?
- salmon steak
- baked potato with cottage cheese (1/2 cup)
- green beans
Hooray! I actually remembered to weigh in this morning. The results were not positive I am sad to report! LOL 258.8 pounds. Nowhere to go but down!
I had a good morning so far. I had my pre-workout breakfast and then discovered that the exercise class I wanted to do was cancelled. BAH! Doesn't the gym realize it is hard enough to get there without someone ELSE making excuses for me? So, I met my hilarious workout buddy for coffee and even managed to have my bottle of water and banana only! Yay (killing two resolutions with one stone!)
And then, here's the best part...after she went off to her appointment...I went to the gym! I did 40 minutes of cardio and felt great when I was done. I also did one minute total of skipping. My goal is to work up to one minute without stopping with my final goal of 5 minutes solid. Who knew that a kids playground activity would be so hard??? Cinder-ella...dressed in yell-a...went upstairs to kiss a fell-a...
Upon my glorious return, I created a lovely omelette breakfast for me as seen here:
It was so yummy! I still have some fruit to eat and then its on to cleaning the house.
Until then...

Stay on target...stay on target...
Well, I missed the shot and didn't blow up the Death Star...good thing is, I did well on most fronts, so I am pleased. I had a chat with 4 cookies (they didn't make it...) so I cut out one of my dips. On the whole, the plan was followed! Now for tomorrow...
Pre-workout breakfast: -4
Breakfast upon return: -7
Forgot to weigh again today, so I need to tomorrow for sure.
For tomorrow, if I am heading for derailment, I need to choose a chore. Procrastination is my enemy...
Future post: Hubby as an inspiration.
