Week 2 Weigh In

So today I woke up with a mixed bundles of nerves on what my weight would be. This week has a been struggle not only food wise but thought wise. However I think that I ended up having a great week even if I did not lose a million pounds. So without further ado here are this weeks results

Calories Burned- 1307.6
Workout-7
Time 3.22, hours

Weight 191.

This week my wii did not weigh me because I hit the wrong button so I am going off of my scale that I own. It did say 190.4 but since my wii scale rounds up so will I.

I am happy with the amount of weight I lost. Yes it is not 6 pounds like last week however it a good and healthy amount of weight for a one week period. This week should hopefully see me leaving the 190's

Cheesecake and a workout

Now I bet the title caught your eye. Yes I had cheesecake not just any plain cheesecake but cheesecake from the cheesecake factory. Now I know you are thinking "is she kidding me" "is she not dieting"? My answers to both question is yes I am not kidding and yes I am dieting however I am not going to deprive myself for the rest of my life. I knew that we would be going out tonight so today I limited my food in take. I did not get up till 11am, and by then I was ready for coffee not breakfast so I had my coffee and then about 2 pm I had a small salad. We then took the dogs for a walk which was nice. We then went to dinner where I had half of a grilled piece of salmon( other half for lunch) broccoli and asparagus. I did allow myself to have one small piece of bread and then half a piece of fried mac and cheese ( super yummy). Then I got my cheese cake but it was not plain it was a piece of recse peanut butter cake cheesecake, however I only ate half and threw the other half in the trash. The workout you ask was great I got home from dinner not feeling guilty but knew I needed to workout since it was a workout day. I did my regular 33 minutes where I burned 250 calories. Then i did another 14 pictures where I burned 100 calories. I am so happy with myself because I can feel that muscles in my arms are sore but in a good way. Whatever happens with my weigh in I am proud of myself.

Losing It

The last few days at work have been very tough and I had a really hard struggle with my eating habits. I did great both yesterday and today eating wise until I got home. Last night I was so tired, and after working out I did not want to cook so we had chickfila. Then tonight I had a health lunch and then I came home and could not figure out what to make for dinner.So I made the bad decision to order pizza. I did manage to work out for close to 30 minutes and then I had 2 big pieces of stuffed crust pizza and 4 boneless wings. I did not eat garlic bread which is my weakness but I am not a fan of Pizza hut bread. I feel like if I don't get my eating back under control I will not lose the 2 pounds I am hoping to lose.

Getting Discouraged

Will I knew this week was going to be hard just because the second week losing weight is always hard since you lose a good amount of weight the first week. Last night I did my workout and was very pumped up. I did good eating wise, then today I woke feeling like crap so I new it was goign to be a hard day. I did put on a pair of pants that have been tight the last few weeks, however I was able to button them without alot of problem which in the past I had too lay on my bed flat and pray I could button them and then pray I did not have to use the restroom. I was happy about that however I got to work and still was feeling down, had lunch still feeling down, then I came home and was still discouraged. I am still discouraged and I am hoping tomorrow will be better. Today is a rest day but I am hoping to see a weight loss this week.

Breakfast Recipe

SO like I said in the previous post I have a hard time with foods for breakfast. Part of it is that I don't like cereal or oatmeal and like recipes that are hot. However I am so not a morning person even though I get up at 6. However yesterday I made the following recipe for lunch(woke up at 10:30). I have to say it was good but I think i would use less eggs and more salsa. I love salsa. Another good thing about this recipe is that it is a WW recipe. I did not use FF tortillas but even with the recipe was maybe 250-300. Great recipe.
