Choices

Stacey I am very glad that you decided to start this blog. It was a great idea and I find it very beneficial. Even though I have only been doing this for technically 2 days I feel more motivated to stick with this. This weekend I have a 30th birthday party and I know it is going to be hard to stay on track. This brings me to a couple of goals/things I need to work on.

1. Making wise choices when I go out since so much of getting together with friends and family is planned around eating.
   
2. Eating at home more often. Matt & I are trying to eat at home more seems like more and more we make a run to the local fast food joint just for the sake of convenience.
   

This week I have done pretty good with #2 Matt & I so far have eaten at home every night that is huge for us hopefully we can keep it up. I know there are times you just have no choice so that is why I need to work on making wiser choices.

What I had today...so far


Breakfast - Slim Fast 3pts
Lunch - WW Dinner 7 pts Dt. Coke
Snack- Little Debbie Brownie (100 Calorie) (they are very small good but small) 2pts
Snack - Wheat pretzels 2 pts
Dinner- 6' Subway Sub -11 pts
Baked Lays 4 pts ,Dt Coke
6 bottles of water

Total 29 pts.

I went over my point by a little with the sub I should have put Lt Mayo on the sandwich and put it on wheat. I still am proud of myself even if I went over a little at least we did not go to McD's or some place I would have been more tempted to eat more. Also Matt got me a foot long and I put the other half in the fridge that is a big deal for me. I was very tempted to eat the other half but I resisted.

I did get a walking video yesterday at Target. I watched it today but I did not do it. Matt laughed at me. I guess you can't get in shape by just watching : ) Tomorrow I am going to actually do the work out!
