Hi ya Kim! Hope you have a great day....I'm having left over fajitas tonight for dinner...only I'll have a half cup of brown rice and opt out of the tortilla! LOL! 
I'm hoping for a place where I can get a GOOD Sweet Potato and chicken or steamed veggies, mmmm maybe a place called "Texas Roadhouse".
Okay, Don't be mad, but I didn't have dinner last night, since I stayed online so long, I didn't have time. I did however, pull out that lime jello and had a few bites of that. Maybe that's why when I got on the scale this morning it said I was down another 1.5 pounds.Kim
Ahh you should see my large pot of hummus and carrot! :OHi Miss LadybugI always have to suppress this urge to laugh when I see you post "1 Large Carrot" It's just really cute for some reason! Maybe it's because I never see anyone actually eating one large carrot. It's funny!
Cinder, I spent many lonely years all by my lonesome! Actually it got to the point, I didn't want anybody else, I was happy being by myself, and my boys. I don't know if you ever watched this old PBS show called ANN OF GREEN GABLES, well if you haven't it's about this girl and this older lady adopts her and she watches her grow into a young women, and each year she's rocking on her porch talking to her nosy neighbor friend and waiting for Ann to come home for a visit. Well, that's who I thought I would ended being. HONESTLY, it wasn't until I stopped caring about finding someone that I ran SMACK INTO HIM. He was literally under my nose for 5 years and I never new it. I used to be a season ticket holder to the Oklahoma City Blazers hockey team, and well he used to be a volunteer for them and worked on the ice and with the entertainment during periods. See I never knew that until we actually hooked up. You just never know. Don't worry, you too will find another and it will happen when you least expect it, and it will be the right one!!
I had so far to eat:
1 C Raisin Bran/ 1C 1% milk
1 Large Carrot,mmmm
5 animal crackers
About 3.5 strips of grilled chicken breast
2 small flour tortilla
12 oz coffee
3tsp sugar
I think that's it. Again, not sure about dinner yet. If I guess I have probably consumed so far..... 700-750 calories give or take. Still leaves plenty of room for a good dinner, MINUS my workout tonight about 350 calories. makes for a good day!! Talk to you all later!

Cinder: OH YEAH ROARRRRRRRR!!! That's me for sure!! I used to be really layed back as a young girl, but as I had kids and got into my 30's I most verbal and expressive and I don't take anymore shit from anybody. Life's to short, I try not to sweat the small stuff anymore!! And I usually base my calories on about 1500-1600 a day. I have a calculator i found online that I use to plug my foods into and it works for me. Is that what you meant??
Hi Kim,
For the weight training, you have to do a program that is right for YOU. That said, if you are doing heavy, complex muscle exercises (squats, deadlifts, bench presses, lunges, military presses, pullups, rows) then it might be better to give your muscles at least two days between each session. I do mine every 3 days, and that has been working out very well. It's just enough stress on the muscles to ward off catabolism (loss of lean body mass), and not so much that it induces fatigue.
