Week and weekend

141.5 on Friday, same as usual. Only got on the elliptical and weights, 3 times this week. No wonder I am in maintenance mode and not losing. I am eating well during the week, this week was bad with a quesidilla burger on Sat and Fried chicken on Sunday.
That's all folks.

Sarah's weekend

So I didn't eat that great Fri night and Sat, but Sunday was good. Brian and I went out to dinner Fri night, had the steamed littleneck clam app with some bread, and spinach ravioli, veal in a brandy cream sauce. I don't even want to know how many calories and fat that had. Saturday, I worked, breakfast was yogurt and an apple, lunch, some organic steak and cheese panini - 370 calories, snack was raw green pepper and yogurt with cinnamon cereal. Dinner was leftover spinach ravioli and veal.
Sunday was better, went to the gym in the am - did 3 miles - 2 mi intervals and the 3 mile was incline run. Then some weight training and stuff for an hour. My friend Rachel and I kick each other's butt - it's great. Lunch was a spinach wrap with grilled chicken, provolone, red peppers, spinach. Yum. very satisfying. Snack was a cucumber. Dinner was 3 wontons and some broccoli. I had some fatfree frozen yogurt for dessert.
So I bought 2 new bathing suits online for Cancun. I put up pictures to remind myself to eat better. One picture is on the fridge at home, one picture is in my bedroom (reminder for gym) and one picture is at work in front of my healthy snack drawer. While I eat healthy snacks, I think I've been eating too much healthy snacks. I want to cut back on that.
This am I did 2 miles and then weights.
Have a great day everyone!

17 miles and a cheeseburger

wooo-doggie! I haven't run that far in ages! Of course around mile 13 I started thinking of food, cuz that's what runners do when they're tired. I was envisioning a nicely grilled medium rare burger dripping with ketchup on a soft but firm kaiser roll topped with lettuce and a slice of tomato...mmmm Mm! And that is EXACTLY what I had for dinner after the grapefruit and slice of quiche for lunch landed short of replenishment and left me with a protein craving urgency to consume as much red meat as I could possibly stomach. ahhh, but for cheeseburgers paired with ice cold beer I would be a good vegetarian.

saturday - total calories 1640 (no exercise)
sunday - total calories 2500 including the vanilla icecream I'm about consume to balance out the burger :) exercise - well, 17 miles and at least I walked the 1/2 mile to and then from the bar!

Sunday

I discovered a couple of things yesterday that are awesome for my diet. Thought maybe they might help you guys too.... (as long as you're not on low carb)

Arnold Select Sandwich Thins 100% whole wheat. Really great way to have a sandwich or bread with soup or something, all for 1 WW point!! 100 calories, 1 g fat, 5 g fiber, 5 g protein. It's like a flat round roll... I had one with breakfast this morning, and one for lunch with my veggie burger... such a great way to save calories!!

Kozy Shack no sugar added rice pudding. I don't usually like things with Splenda (for the taste and the chemicals), but it's barely noticeable, and this is helping me with my sweet tooth! 90 calories, 3 g fat, 3 g fiber, 4 g protein. convenient lil' individual serving size only costs me 1 WW point!!!

So here was my sunday. You will notice a lot of nasty nasty snacking but... hey... it was a lazy lazy sunday. I just have to be good for the rest of the week and I'll be ok :-)

Coffee - 1
bread & lowfat cheese - 2
veggie burger, lofat cheese, bread - 5
salad w fresh mozz, balsamic dressing - 3
3 cookies :-( - 6
deviled eggs - 3
chips :-( - 2

total= 29.

only 1, better than none

Still haven't gotten down to the 165 I started at, but at least I can report 167 today. The good news is lots of people have been telling me I look good. Last night I recieved a "you look buff" as well as a "you've lost weight!"

so, slow and steady.

Work hard...Play Hard. Go TL!

Ugh

163.0 I knew that diet of conch fritters, smoked fish dip, fried grouper and Planter's Punch wasn't good for me.

My prescription aquagoggles should be arriving today, which means I will FINALLY get my ass over to the Y. I've had dreams of swimming again, so I hope this is the push I need to jump start some wieght loss.

I do eat pretty well, all things considered. As I mentioned before, it's my portions that are out of control (and the candy store being right next to Yankee Candle where I work part-time).
