After my downer post from yesterday...I got an email from a very dear friend who gave me just what I needed. Solutions! She suggested I jump into Game On (which was already underway with another group) and suggested a new form of exercise which sounds kinda exciting, hiking. Yes this non hippy prissy chick is going to try her hand at hiking :) Most importantly I started Game On today!!!
Goal: Weight Loss (I need to lose 1% of my body weight each week) - starting weight 194
Good Habit: I will moisturize my face every day.
Bad Habit: No more negative self talk.
Today was outstanding!!! I got to go with Dominic on his field trip to the Science Center.





what is up with this pose?!? :)


Food was a challenge but I managed to fit in all 5 of my sanctioned meals!!! AND DRINK MY WATER:)
Meal 1: Veggie Sausage with whole wheat english muffin
Meal #2: Unpictured string cheese and an apple
Meal #3: Tuna on whole wheat bun and a Clementine
Meal #5: zucchini lasagna with a side salad :)
This Zucchini Lasagna is SO EASY...and I made it in the crock pot.
Ingredients: 4 Zucchini, 1 small container fat free ricotta cheese, 1 egg, 1 bag pre shredded reduced fat motz cheese, a jar of sauce.
How? slice zucchini and cover in salt to strain some fluid out of them. While they're releasing some water, in a mixing bowl, combine ricotta, motz and egg. The rest is really simple! rinse and strain the zucchini, then layer sauce, zucchini and cheese mixture in the crock pot. Then another layer of sauce, zucchini and cheese mixture, Keep going until everything is in the pot and cook on low 6-10 hours. ENJOY!
I think it would be done in 6 hours but we are gone for 10 and the cheese takes on a very hearty consistency... I LOVE IT!
As if walking all day wasn't enough...I walked 2 miles with the girls tonight and it felt GREAT!
That's it for now
TTFN
Positive thought for today? I love spending time with my kids :)
