Healthy Weight Loss - Page 50

*Anya* · 08-15-2011, 08:04 AM

Continuing to focus on healthy eating, rather than the scale. Fixating on the scale is never good for my head. For me, too easy to get discouraged.

Our weight does fluctuate, even when eating and sticking to our plans.

I was happy to not have gained last week and to not succumb to going off the eating rails.

I appreciated all the posts about not gaining being as important as losing, though it does feel a tiny bit more exciting to lose!

Postscript: I did lose a pound

Hugs,

Good Morning Everyone,

I went power walking lastnight and really enjoyed the cool breeze! I have to work until 10p tonight, so I won't be able to hit the gym or go power walking. So tomorrow morning, I will be up and early to hit the gym...

Have a great day! It is my last day in the PBX department, woohoo!!!

for all of us!

Zimmy

PinkieLee · 08-15-2011, 09:05 AM

Good morning & happy Monday y'all

What a wonderful way to start off the day, than to see amazing weight loss numbers & healthier choices being made! Y'all rock! THANK YOU for keeping yourself & us motivated!!!

My last weigh in was on Thursday and I lost another 2 pounds. WOOHOO... 19 pounds lost forever! Every Monday morning I get on the scale, just to see where I stand after the weekend (where I never get enough water or keep track of points as well as I should). I'm only a .5 lb off, so that's not a problem at all. I'll keep chugging water, get in some exercise & stick to my healthy eating and I WILL pull off a loss on Thursday!

Yesterday, D and I were both craving banana nut bread. So, while grocery shopping, I picked up some instant muffin mix (yeah, just add milk). I figured the points and they are only 4 points each... not bad at all. Each bag of mix makes 6 standard size muffins (NOT like the big ol' ones in the bakery). They were just sweet enough for a dessert and/or for breakfast in the morning with a piece of fruit and coffee and with NO GUILT!

Well, I hope that everyone has a wonderful day!

Sparkle · 08-15-2011, 09:11 AM

My Monday morning mini-triumph:

This morning I was getting dressed for an interview and put on a pair of suit trousers I've not worn since the early spring ... and for the first time in (at least) a year they fit beautifully! Hoorah!

(shame the job wasn't so thrilling, but I'll take triumphs where I can get 'em)

Medusa · 08-15-2011, 09:15 AM

Would folks mind sharing their daily menus and point counts? I think maybe it would help us all see new ways of eating and get some new ideas from one another.

This was my breakfast today:

1 banana - 0 points
1 plum - 0 points
1 5.5 ounce Spicy hot V8 - 1 point
16 ounces of water

This was a pretty light breakfast for me because I usually do a smoothie and a handful of mini-wheats but I was feeling lazy this morning and in a hurry. I also have to kinda graze on this because it usually takes me until 10am to get all of this down. Still, a ONE POINT breakfast and lots of nutrition.

For lunch, I have this:

Amy's Light and Lean Black Bean Enchilada dinner - 6 points
Fiber One bar - 4 points
More water!

Afternoon snack -
Blue Diamond 100 calorie pack of roasted almonds - 3 points

Pre-dinner snack -
Fuji Apple - 0 points

Dinner tonight -
3 of my very good turkey meatballs - 6 points
1/2 cup whole wheat pasta - 4 points
1/2 cup of my homemade sauce - 1 point
1 cup steamed brocolli - 0 points
lots of water

After dinner snack if Im still feeling it -
1 of those very good WW raspberry chocolate popsicles - 2 points

I'll caveat this by saying that I do not usually have a pyramid like this where more of my points are at the end of the day. I usually try to get more of my points at breakfast and lunch. I also mostly have more dairy in my plan since I often make smoothies with almond milk or have a piece of cheese with lunch.

I am currently allowed 43 points per day for my weight range and everything above comes out to 27 total. That's pretty normal for me to stay in the less-than-30-point range. I know Im supposed to be getting more points a day but it's hard.

Now, show me yours since I showed you mine!

PinkieLee · 08-15-2011, 09:37 AM

Medusa... your daily meal plan is awesome!! Girl, I don't know how you manage to stay under the 30 points ~ but the proof is right there! GOOD FOR YOU!

This morning's breakfast...
2 multi-grain waffles - 5 points
a banana

For lunch will be...
some Lean Cuisine or WW frozen meal - anywhere from 6 - 7 points
and a side salad with lettuce, tomato & carrots - 0 points
light raspberry vinagrette dressing - 2 points

Anytime snacks are usually
Yogurt - 2 points
Fruit - 0 points
or a 100 calorie snack pack - 3 points

Since I work the 2nd job tonight, dinner will be...
a ham/turkey sandwich on wheat bread from Subway - 8 points
apple slices - 0 points

If I'm still hungry when I get off work, I'll usually make some popcorn and we'll split the 4 points!

For me, most of my points are spent on dinner.

Somedays, I stay around the 30ish mark, and other days I'm lucky to stay under my goal of 46. I know for ME, if I stay away from drinking beer or wine, I never really use the extra allowance for the week.

We went out to eat on Saturday, to a seafood place at the beach... that's has the best fried fish and shrimp you'll ever taste. NOPE, not for me. They've started added healthier options to their menu, and I had avacado halves with lump meat crab, a side salad with avacado ranch dressing & a small cup of gumbo. I couldn't tell you what the points where, but at least I KNOW for a fact nothing was fried and it was a much healthier choice!

ruffryder · 08-15-2011, 09:37 AM

Hello everybody. Thanks for the tips and eating options! Today I'm on day 2 of loading up and tomorrow I will start on my diet plan. I will post what I eat and keep everyone updated on my progress from then on out. Happy Monday and healthy eating!

Thinker · 08-15-2011, 09:43 AM

I'm allowed 35 points per day.

This morning, so far, I've had...

coffee - 1 pt.
Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat) with blueberries & granola - 4 pts.
V8 (low sodium) - 1 pt.

On days when I lift, I also add in a whey shake (vanilla w/banana & strawberries) for 3 pts.

That right there is a pretty standard morning for me these days. It'll change back to pancakes or oatmeal when the weather gets cooler.

At some point during the day (sometimes twice), I will have 2 servings of tuna (2 points) on a toasted thin bun (2 points) for a total of 4 points.

In the evening I will have another V8 for another point.

The rest varies. I like a beef patty on a thin bun (7 points). I do chicken breasts on the grill a lot (3 points per breast). I also like to grill the 97% fat free Hebrew National dogs (1 point per frank). Sometimes I have it without a bun and add chili; sometimes I have the bun instead.

Like Angie, I rarely use all of my points and that is something I'm working on.

Scorp · 08-15-2011, 09:49 AM

Hi Folks,

Hope everyone is doing well!

Breakfast:

2 cups of Stonefield Lowfat Yogurt: 6 pts.

______________________________

Sparkle · 08-15-2011, 09:54 AM

32 oz. of water throughout the course of the day

Scorp · 08-15-2011, 10:00 AM

We LOVE these hot dogs and a favorite in our household. They taste just like the regular hebrew national.

PinkieLee · 08-15-2011, 10:15 AM

I also got the WW string cheese the other day... only 1 point! It's a great afternoon snack with an apple!

ruffryder · 08-15-2011, 11:48 AM

So drinking water is supposed to be half of your weight in ounces. Does everyone follow this rule? I'm thinking I'm gonna be drinking about 32 ounces of Ice tea and 3 bottles of water a day.. also having my morning coffee! I may have some hot tea now and then to change it up. What is your fav kind or flavors of tea?

Scorp · 08-15-2011, 11:53 AM

Another great snack (1 wedge) laughing cow low-fat garlic & herb or french onion is 1 point.

Medusa · 08-15-2011, 12:05 PM

Those Laughing Cow wedges are amazing!

I sometimes spread them on a whole-wheat tortilla and fill with baby spinach, grilled chicken, avocado, and black beans and it makes a VERY good wrap!

Also, you can drop a wedge or two over hot cooked pasta and add some veggies and its super yummy!

I'm not super big on tea (talking about iced tea), but when I have it at home it is the Crystal Light raspberry green tea.

If I eat out and they have raspberry tea, I'll usually get it.

Other than that, regular ol' unsweetened iced tea is good enough for me.

Zimmeh · 08-15-2011, 12:13 PM

My favorite tea is Earl Grey, hot or as iced tea! I like to add a teaspoon of either Irish Creme or French Vanilla creamer to it..

I try and drink a minimum of four large glasses of water everyday.

*Anya* · 08-15-2011, 12:27 PM

Breakfast: one cup of steel-cut oatmeal ( have to have something to chew, can't stand the pablum of instant oatmeal) with about 20 raisins, one pint of non-fat milk and one cup of coffee with a teaspoon of Half-and-half with Spenda.

Yum.

Going to walk up 4 flights of stairs right now. Have a great day all!

I love this thread
