A Healthier Me (Veronique's Diary Part 2)

New Year New Me

Hello forum friends!


I am now back full time with a new modem that works just in time for the new year! The holidays where hard....expensive and stressfull and tirring and most of all fun to see familly members that I only see during the holidays....holiday food for me is not too bad until I get to desert...I weighted in at 179.0lb this morning :( I never wanted to get back up here my new jeans are tight and I am feeling very akward in them, but I am gonna keep wearing them till they get too big....I made a pact with two women at work to get to 169 by mid march..if we do succeed we are heading to a tatoo parlor and getting tattoos! I bought the X box Kinnect for Chrismas and I will do the dancing game at least 30 min a day this week....and I will start again with my water....I also want to take a few minuts to log on here and track my foods I will start with points again tommorow this week I am just gonna do portion size and quality of the food I eat....no more crap food!

Breakfast
Yogourt and Granola parfait.

Lunch
Vegetable and Lentille soup

Diner
I want chicken and salad but I don't know yet.
 
Welcome back to the forum. I am sure you will succeed. Make sure you get your water in - half your weight in ounces - for me that is 12 cups. Have you tried water with a squeeze of lime? It is delish. Have fun with your Wii and remember you are burning calories just being on your feet looking after your kids - any time you are not sitting on your butt you are burning calories.

I used to be very good with drinking my water.....until I started my new job and there is no good drinking water available I used to drink like 3L a day! I keep forgeting my water bottle at home in the morning, until mid november I would put it in the car the night before but now it's too cold and my water freezes and it makes a mess on my desk.....I will find a solution! I am running out of fuel for running after my kids....this journey is not just bout weight loss but also I want to get fit and enjoye time with my kids more!

I am trying to shake of my renewed surgar addiction. So I am still going for my cravings but in smaller doses and I will keep shrinking the portion size opfully by the end of January and with out headach surgar will be out of my system along with the craving s for it.....Also I am gonna buy more fruits in order to feed those craving but I know I got to cut down gradually of the process surgar stuff in order not to have migrains....they would keep me from doing my job well! I am planning to bring my water with me tommorow and hopefully a work out tonight!

I have been craving salt like crasy wich mean TOM is on it's way probably around monday......I don't think there will be a big loss on the scale this week but I am craving surgar a lot less so that on itself is a great victory I did about 1 hours of workout but I did go pick up the mail this week at work on foot that is about 15 min walk in the cold and snow and ice so it takes a lot out of a person lol ( I know I know wimplol) I am planning of buying ice skate to teach my daughter to skate! I got so much house work to catch up on I should go......I got a bit disapointed at work today. There where giving new responsibilities to my team and all I got was more phone calls.....I was hoping to get away from freaking phones.....and learn new things now all I get to do are phones nothing else I will probably have to give away all other work cause I won't have time for it that suck I was hoping for a real chance but I am the new girl I get the crap job...and they way they are setting me up I will not get to prove that I am good for anything else anytime soon. I am just gonna have to suck it up for now mabe they will have to hire a new person to help with the phones soon, and I get other stuff to do.

Weigh in a day late!

Good Morning forum friends! So yesterday I had a day off and I woke up way to late and I still had to drive the kids over to the day care so that my daughter got on the but on time...... I didn't get to weight in. From the day care my husband and I brought a couple of news paper and went out for breakfast...I had a cheese omelette and I ate it all but it was kind of a brunch so I was really hungry and the place we went at doesn't over serve I didn't feel too full after then when I got home I caught up with my daily cleaning. I also watch a bit of day time tv whole folding laundry. No work out yesterday and food wasn't great but not bad I had my brunch and then half of Friday's diner I wanted wine but had no time to go buy some and I don't keep pepsi in the house. Snack was a handfull of popcorn unsalted!

This morning I did jump on the scale! 177.2 Last week I was 179 :) I am glad for that imagine what I can acomplish with actual workouts!
 
Yesterday:

Breakfast
Share a 3 egg cheese omeleete with the kids so I ate like 1/3 of it !
1 Toast slightly buttered
coffee time 3 cups but only 2 cream and one surgar for all three cups I basically toped my cup with fresh coffee with out adding anything more to it!

Lunch
Legume salad (spring mix with red pepper red oignion and a can of mixed beans)
1 tbps of homemade dressing

Diner
I skipped it I felt dead tired and my nose was all stuffy Kids and hubby wanted hot dogs and I am no longer albe to eat those. I saw a show the 10 worst things you can eat and yuck they showed what could possibly be in a hot dog,,,,even thought I don't eat the pork or beef ones I was still very discusted and still can look at them ...I did have a small bowl of chips later on damn cravings....but I didn't eat the bag just a small bowl still improvement...I can't wait for TOM to start so the craving go down.

Today
French Toast ( my daughter wanted to help me with breakfast)
Coffee 1 Cream 1 Surgaar and so far only one cup.

Lunch and diner will be at my moms and I am gonna go visit my god father who isn't doing too well, I didn't want to ge alone so my mom is comming with me!

Spinach Salad with chicken and feta ( at least diner will be healthy)

Today's food isn't good I am sick and am craving junk plus TOM is due any day now (today to be exact). Also to day I did break one of my own rules and jumped on the scale first thing in the morning scale said 175.6 ( WHat???)
I am still keeping my official weight at 177.2 until Friday and will nit start weighin in every day. I better go fix my salad before I go for more junk!

I just want to say, that even though I've only thus far read the first post of this thread diary I will be reading the whole thing because you WORK IN A CHEESE FACTORY. You are a GODDESS among women. I love your work.
