well, I lost 1.4 lbs this week. I had of course hoped for more since I started working out this week, but since I didn't eat the best while away this weekend, I can see how I might not have lost much. I am just happy I lost something. So, I am continuing with the working out with the Biggest Losers Cardio max and eating smoothies for breakfast. My salads for lunch haven't been working out because with in an hour of them I was so hungry I wanted to eat everything in site. so I am still trying to com up with heathy lunch options or ideas on how to make the salad heartier but still healthy. And I have been doing well on dinners which is somhow easier. I think it is because I don't like to cook much at lunch time. I want something fast and easy because we are homeschooling and the little one naps and I just feel like I don't want to cook a big meal and then again for dinner.
Anyway, unless I really ramp it up in the food restriction and excersize this week I probably won't make my goal of 10 lbs this month. I have 4.4 lbs to go and I haven't lost that much in one week yet. But I will keep plugging away and we will see what happens.

Great job on the loss! I can't eat just a salad for a meal, either. Even those big ones from fast food places still leave me hungry. Right now for lunch I grab a 100 calorie sandwich thin, spread on 1tbs peanut butter and have that with a piece of fruit and a 100 calorie bag of popcorn. I know you keep losing, you are doing great!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 1.4 lbs lost! That's great! One thing that really helped me when I first started changing my eating habits was making sure I had a complex carb and a protein at each meal. Maybe you could grill some chicken ahead of time to have available to add to your salad.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever tried tilapia? We love it and you can broil it in your oven in 15 minutes. I love having tilapia and a salad for a quick, easy lunch.
