Baby steps are getting BIGGER!
That just translates to me getting smaller! Still could do better on the eating but did make some better choices. Today I put an order to Sam’s Club for veggies and salad mixings since I’m all out. I also ordered some of those 100-calorie packs of cookies in case I get the sweets cravings but at least it’s portioned to count better calories. I have a cookie jar now and I don’t ingest the cookies there that often, my brother tends to eat out of it. I’ll just drop the cookie packs in there. Mostly I can’t wait to have a wonderful veggie sandwich of cucumbers/mushrooms/tomatoes/lettuce/roasted bell peppers. Like I said I’m thick headed but I’m moving toward the right direction, then I guess I’ll move towards the goal! I did get my weightlifting and squats in this afternoon. I’m still trying to get myself to do the 2nd workout. I plan on being there tomorrow! We’ll see.
Salad with tomatoes bleu cheese dressing
7 hotdogs, with buns (low fat small variety)
Snapple Peach tea mixed with water
10 grapes, 2 cherries
Today’s food had too much fat and carbs. Tomorrow I’ll get in a couple protein shakes if that’s what it take to up the protein, but I’ll do it. For afternoons I’m thinking that popcorn and carrots are a good low cal filler to stop any other cravings. Hey… Still haven’t opened the ice cream. Craving regular food mostly. I think I’ll put in the walk away the pounds tape real quickly and get in 10 minutes at least. Back in a minute.
Well I got a little workout in and it’s queued up and ready to go for the am wake up call! Yeah! So I got the second workout in, even though it’s after 11PM. I’m pretty proud of myself right now, and to think it didn’t have to be drawn out and lengthy, and I didn’t have to do the whole tape!

I'm doing walk away the pounds and freeweights. I also pop in other workout DVDs occasionally. I attempt Kathy Smith's Power Step here and there, but she's so fast, I'm hopelessly lost most of the time, but I do what I can. I prefer walk away the pounds and I put in my own music which keeps me working out, I always think: "One more song, just one more" and that actually keeps me working out longer than whatever the DVD's music and noise are doing. Thank you again for your support Shane. IJ
