Morning all ♥
It's a beautiful day out there, so going for a brisk walk shortly..
Yesterday,i ended up walking more than 2 hours, plus my walk to and from work (twice, because i worked a split shift) - so definitely upp'ing the exercise.

Today, i am starting the 100 pushup challenge, and going to start on some toning exercises as well ..

For breakfast -
1/2 cup multigrain cheerios
1 cup of skim milk (half for cereal & drank the rest, lol)
1 medium orange
1 boiled egg, medium

snack - 1/2 cup grapes & 1 clementine

Not sure what's for lunch just yet, but taking some salmon out for tonight's dinner, with a very little bit of basmati rice and asparagus, & a salad ,YUM!

It feels great to be back in the game, and already seeing & feeling results - Next goal is 10 more lbs!

hey errr buddy!! I hope everyone is having a great week! I have to get out today and walk. It should be a great walk downtown and sight seeing. Look forward to getting out and checking out the area I am in now.

I also decided to pull out my scale and weigh myself today. I had lost 10 lbs when I started to diet and I haven't checked it now for 2 months since moving around and trying to get situated. Not so sure I kept the lbs off but we will see and I think by looking anyway it will give me motivation.

have a wonderful day peeps.

Good morning & happy Tuesday y'all

It's almost that time of year again where we all start juggling like crazy & the world moves nonstop. So, what are you gonna do to stay motivated to keep on track in the midst of all the holiday events?

Well for me, since I'm doing the cooking this Thanksgiving, I'm looking into healthier alternatives to traditional holiday comfort foods. I'm going back through some receipes that y'all have posted, and combing through the WW receipes & some diabetic friendly ones (since both of my parents are now pre-diabetic).

I know a lot of people are starting to list something every single day that they are thankful for in their lives. I heard this song.... and decided I was gonna list ONE thing everyday that made me feel proud of myself.

I'm proud that yesterday, I made smarter choices & was able to stay within my points range. I threw away all the crap snack foods in the cabinets at work & loaded the fridge with fruit & yogurt.

As for meals planned for the day...

Breakfast:
Special K with berries cereal with 2% low fat milk
a banana
a small sugar free iced vanilla coffee

Lunch:
chicken salad with apples & pecans on a wheat tortilla

Dinner:
ground turkey taco salads with no shell (lettuce, tomato, avacado, a sprinkle of WW cheese, fat free sour cream & salsa), a handful of Baked Tostitos Scoops on the side.

Snacks:
WW string cheese
100 calorie almond pack

Plans are to hit the gym tonight... even if I have to go alone. Game on!

Have a great day, y'all!

I'm always looking for new and clever ways to make my meals to-go.

I thought this was great, especially because portable salads can be a hassle because there are always some ingredients that get mushy or go off too quickly.

And, its a great "green" container solution too.

Ive had my exersis today by playing soccor with my furkid,for nearly a half hour we either chased the ball from one end of the yard to the other or I shot hoops while she took a break.We both needed this badly cause we both have been down and upset about her buddy passing over the weekend.
