Still going.. kinda

So.. Im not doing so well. Im going over my calorie limit each day. I know im not eating as much as I used to.. but I still KNOW. I hope to be at least the same weight next week as I was last week. If I gain, I will be sad, but its my own fault. I need to stick to grocery shopping, and stick with a meal plan of some sort like I WAS doing at the beginning of this journey. I can still lose up to the 30 pounds, just gotta get back on track.

Into the 4th week

I have not been posting much lately, for that I do appologize. I haven't actually been online much lately either, and so because of that, I have not blogged. Things are going pretty well. I have lost almost 7 pounds in the first 3 weeks. :) Wish it was more, but I am not pushing myself to the extreme, and 2 pounds a week is pretty good. Now, THIS week I might not weigh myself, due to the fact that it is going to be my Moon time and im pretty sure to gain about 3 pounds of fluids, so I do not want to depress myself, I will probably just weigh in next Thursday, not this one.

BREAKFAST: 2 small sausage/egg/cheese burritos that were more torilla than anything else. Both together probably had a 1 cup of sausage, 1/2 cup of cheese or less and about a cup of scrambled eggs.

SNACK: Mixed nuts: 170 calories

LUNCH: 1 quesadilla with chicken/lettuce/cheese/refried beans, some chips.

SNACK: 1 banana, 5 saltine crackers

(Im not doing so well today..and I blame it ALL on mother nature!!! lol.. and the fact that I have no will power today... >.<)

Dinner: 1 banana and string cheese

I should be counting the calories today, but due to the fact that I have NO idea how many was in breakfast or lunch, I really can't. I need to go grocery shopping! That will be tomorrow. :)

Trying the veggie thing again..

I miss the feeling that I had when I ate a vegan diet high in raw foods. Im going to attempt to bring that feeling back. It will be a progress.. not going to happen overnight.

BREAKFAST: coconut/mango/banana smoothie (2 medium bananas, 1 large banana, 2 small yellow mangos and 1 young coconut water) ... about 600 calories

SNACK: 10 oz (283g) of Grape Tomatoes w a little sea salt. ....75 calories

SNACK: saltine crackers....60 calories.... chocolate.. 60 calories. = 120 calories

LUNCH Spinach walnut salad... 300 calories

SNACK: crackers with peanut butter. 160 calories

If I had just gone home last night.. I would have done GREAT calorie wise.. but.. I went to a party and well.... today was blown. lol That is all

TOTAL: 1255 calories

Week 3 starts and weight loss!

Sorry I did not post anything yesterday. Twas a busy day and I just kinda forgot. Foodwise yesterday though.. breakfast was some left over vegitarian mexican food. Little calories. Snacked on veggies throughout the day and then dinner was Mexican at a restraunt. Did not do so well, but Im forgiving myself. The chips did me in. Im a chip addict. SOOO bad. lol. However, I weighed myself yesterday and I had lost 2 pounds my second week! Woot! So, so far I have lost about 5 pounds. Thats a pretty good amount for just 2 week. Soon I the 30 pounds will be gone and I can work on another 30. :)

Im am starting to work out now. Yoga is going to be a major part of the work out routine. I need to get some walking in as well.

I am really wanting sweets. I had made the mistake of buying girlscout cookies before I started this journey and I keep a box in my desk at work. I only allow myself two per day, but man, they are tasting so good right now I just want to dig in! Im taking the box home with me tonight and only bringing two to work with me. I am not really tempted to eat them at home. Its weird.

BREAKFAST: A little less than a cup of cottage cheese and some peaches. About 270 calories

SNACK: some veggies (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and celery) with a little bit of ranch dip... 130 for the dip.. 40 for the veggies?

SNACK:1 coconut water = 80 calories, 4 saltine crackers = 60 calories... 140 calories

LUNCH:1 veggie burger with a few fries. Burger around 210? Fries about 150, the bread.. 79 calories.. Im going to say around 500 calories.

SNACK: 2 caramel Delites cookie 140 calories

DINNER:Mixed nuts.. 170 calories

SNACK: 1 chocolate chip brownie lara bar... 200 calories

Total for the day : 1590 calories... ugh. :(

Trying to be good today since tomorrow morning is my weigh in. Im a little nervous. I don't know why though. This past week I had been sick but there were a couple of days that I got close to 2000 calories. :( We will just have to see. I still have almost 3 full months!

LUNCH: veggies.. 140 cal, breadsticks (2) 80 calories = 220 I had originally got a salmon cup to eat with it, but it was yucky. So I had to get chicken strips. They are about 130 calories each. I took the bread off.. had about 3. Im saying about 300 calories. So total for lunch.. 520 calories.

SNACK: Girl scout cookie.. 140 calories

SNACK: more mixed nuts.. 170 calories

After I got off work I had some teriyaki chicken pieces because I was going to go to the bar and didn't want to get anything there. I think those might have been around 350 calories?

So.. looks like tuesdays are going to be the day that I go over on my calorie limit. lol
