Hmmm flax seeds hadnt thought of those...let me know how they work out for you. 8lbs weights way to go girl!! very impressive :)
 
It was funny when I went to buy them at walmart..I go to pull out the rack of them and there was like 20 on the rack..I could hardly move the rack. I thought to myself...self, if you cant even get them out to buy them, maybe they are too heavy :-D

exercise: 30 min walk -pushing stroller ? distance, 40 min of weights w/ some kick boxing, trampoline, abs & pushups
 
This day has been interesting..I really struggled to find something I wanted to do for exercise and ended up making my own "boot camp" type of work out... I had to do this w/ the baby sleeping in the house so w/ the monitor outside...I was able to really push myself w/out any pricey equip...cool!
Also, I called curves today and had them give me my measurements from Jan when I joined...and my mom came down & remeasured me... I have lost 12 inches off my body total w/ the most being on my waist and abs! I lost 6 inches on my abs and 4.5 on my waist! Its no wonder my pants are falling off of me! my wt has only changed 7 lbs since Jan..but so much more has changed. i am really encouraged & excited! I will keep track monthly on those now... since the scale doesnt seem to have too much to say.

Food so far
B: 1 hard boiled egg & 1/2 bagel

S: a bosc pear & a 4 oz yogurt

...very hungry & also had a granola bar 1 hr before breakfast

L: shrimp & veggie stir fry no rice, 1 slice of foccacia bread.

Did 45 min which consisted of 60 jumping jacks, kick boxing, jogging, walking, push ups...& running obstacles... then i gardened for 1/2 hr and built a rock wall around my garden out front. whew..it was great!
