Dang cookies...

Dear April:
Please get your A$$ in gear.  Please stop indulging in stupid treats like ice cream and cookies, they are OK but not really worth it.  Oh and due to your "belly issues" lately it just makes you uncomfortable in the long run anyway.  Knock it off and get back on track!!!  On the plus side: GREAT JOB with the exercise.  Running each night and walking?!  YOU GO GIRL! - K, Thanks - Me :)

I have been the same weight 196 for quite a while now.  The good side of it is that I have maintained this weight while not really restricting myself which means my long term strategy is working.  I love the food I'm eating and am fulfilled plus I LOVE exercising...weird I know but I do love it!!!

Although I feel good, I really just need to get on the ball with something to help me lose these 30lbs to a happy weight.  46 to my goal (150).  Come on April!!!  You can do it...

Now let's be practical, let's formulate a plan...
This week's goals:

• Take a picture and post EVERYTHING I put in my mouth.  No more slippy little pieces of chocolate or cookies that go unpictured.
• No eating past 6:30p
• Must run/walk or do 30 minutes of core work - EVERYDAY!

I don't want to set myself up for failure so I'll just start with this...I'll build on this for next week.

So what did my food look like today?? 

My Monster: yogurt, spinach, oranges, pineapple - DELISH

 Breakfast #2 was Chobani with Kashi.  This Blood Orange Chobani was AMAZING.  Ok...it is official, I'm a fan.  It took me awhile to get used to greek yogurt but I'm hooked now!!!  I have a few more of the new flavors to try this week - SO GOOD!

 Lunch #1 was the rest of my mom's crab soup...YUM!

 And a big green salad with lots of veggies, walnuts, bluecheese and some balsamic vinaigrette

Last week when the boys were at Mom Mom's, they had arts and crafts day...they made these adorable boxes for me.  I love these little guys.  I'm using these boxes to store my paper clips and binder clips.  I've already gotten tons of compliments on them...I LOVE MOMMY gifts that are made my their little hands :)

 Snacks this afternoon consisted of a string cheese and a banana.

Dinner was odd...I made a pizza roll up but I wasn't hungry for that so I only had a few bites then I had some left over potato soup (that my mom sent home from GNO, that I missed on Saturday).  It was delicious but not so good for you...I only had about a half cup.

just realized I didn't eat any meat today (I think this happens alot :))

Then I hit the road for a mile run with another walked with Terri...we wimped out tonight because her calf was hurting and my feet were killing me.  Boo - No excuses right?!?  We have agreed to take tomorrow off, I'm going to do core work, crunches, push ups and planks and Wed I'm getting new shoes so that will hopefully help with the whole feet hurting thing.  I mean, I work at Under Armour for heavens sake...I should get new shoes right???  LOL

When I got home I had 4 cookies.  The boys got chips ahoy peanut butter cup/chocolate chip cookies and they are as BAD as they sound...UGG.  That is done!!!  Tomorrow starts the new April!!

TTFN

Note: I MUST get my butt below 190 before I run the O.C. 5k on March 17th.  I can do it!!!
