I can't believe that this is now the end of July. Damn! Where is my summer vacation going???? Anyhoo, strange thing again: my phantom 7:45 alarm went off again this morning. Today it wasn't too bad as I was already awake but seriously! Where is this alarm coming from? Either way, I was well on my way to get ready to work out. Yay!
BREAKFAST: 1 w.w. English muffin, 1 tsp. margarine, 1 tbsp. ricotta, DanActive yogurt, water
SNACK: 7 almonds
LUNCH: toasted tomato sandwich with mayo and swiss cheese, 12 cheeries, 5 almonds, water
DINNER: 1 c. fettuccine with alfredo sauce, bacon bits, and 3 oz. chicken (okay, not healthiest, but still tried to control what I ate), water; tea with milk
Exercise: 30+ min Power 90 workout (I've eaten too much crap over the past couple of days to ignore...I figured this was the best workout to burn some of that crap away)

OMG I wish that I was at home sleeping and resting today. This weekend was completely and uterly exhausting from the moment we got to Kitchener on Friday.

Sian looked absolutely stunning and I couldn't be happier for her and Cristin.

Wow, I must have really wanted to succeed today because an alarm that I DID NOT program went off on my phone at 7:45 this morning making sure I was up to go to the gym today :) So, I began my day there and now I'm off to shower then start baking calorie-filled almond cookies...yay?

Sat. July 28 - S
Weigh-in: 169.5 lbs
THAT is what I'm talking about. I realize I JUST got under the decade, but I don't want to be in the 170's any more! I was very pleased to see that number this morning when I went on the scale, but at the same time, I realize it's still going to be a struggle to continue to keep that number below the 170 mark. However, I am going to do my best to keep it below that number. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!
(That said, with the wedding reception today, I hope I can keep food in check. Then again, I hope there's some form of dancing. Also, Seb and I are going for breakfast at Kathryn's. For that reason, I've decided to pull out the big guns this morning: Power 90 workout it is!)
BREAKFAST: 2 eggs (over medium), 4 pieces of bacon, 1+ cup fruit, 2 pieces of rye toast, water; tea with milk
LUNCH: watermelon Greek salad (I know, weird combo...but tasted good), water
SNACK: 1 nectarine
DINNER: 1 sandwich (of a variety of filling: roast beef, ham & cheese), some veggies, chips and dip, too much cookies and other treats, 1/2 c. wine, large glass of orange juice and peach schnapps,water; fries
Exercise: approx. 30 min. Fat Burning Express (Power90)

Wed. July 25 - S
Getting up was tricky this morning. I had to get my workout done and still have enough time to take a shower and then go for a nail appointment...then make sure I got mom to an appointment at Malvern Medical on time. Due to the time restraints (especially since my body wanted to sleep longer this morning), I was only able to do the 20 min. workout. I will see if I can include another workout later today...we shall see. Either way, at least I got that 20 min. done, right? Tomorrow, the plan is going to CURVES...but I need to plan that as I have time restraints again (fingers crossed it will work).
BREAKFAST: 1/2 w.w. English muffin, 1/3 c. egg substitute, 1 piece swiss cheese, DanActive yogurt, 2 cherry tomatoes, water

Well...I haven't worked out now for almost 2 1/2 weeks and I feel horrible about it because I really need to get back into shape. I have lost a few pounds and weighed in at 149lbs this morning. I was hoping to be down to at least 145 or 146 by Saturday's wedding but I don't think that will be the case especially because of my time of the month :-( Oh well, what can you do? I am going to have to wear spanx.

Well, I was supposed to go to the gym first thing this morning, at least that was the goal. Unfortunately, I had a lot of problems with my stomach yesterday and into this morning, so I thought it would be a better idea to eat first before going. That said, I hope to go to Curves shortly (fingers crossed).
BREAKFAST: 1/2 w.w. English muffin, 1 tsp. peanut butter, 1/2 tsp. preserves, 6 cherries, 6 almonds, DanActive yogurt, water

**I have to say, it's really hard trying to ignore all the cookies and other treats we have in this house. It was very hard for me not to say "screw it" and eat a peak frean or one of Seb's oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (shhh! don't tell her)
I CAVED!!!! I am sorry to report that just before leaving the house with mom I had 1 ginger snap cookie. The down side is, well, I have no self-restraint. The plus side is I believe they are like 25 cal. each...so at least I didn't cheat with a cookie that's 70+ cal! (yay?)
LUNCH: strawberry summer salad (Boston pizza), 6 garlic shrimp, water; 6 sips of mom's cinnamon dolce latte (1/2 sweet)
**Eating out so frequently this week is NOT helping things...but I AM trying to make better choices of food items...and staying away from alcohol
DINNER: 1/2 chicken caesar wrap, side house salad with raspberry vinaigrette dressing, 1/2 c. coleslaw, water, 1 fry; tea with milk and 1 sugar...resisted urge to go to Second Cup for a latte...it was tough, but I DID IT!!!!

Mon. July 23 - S
This is the beginning of a new...well, I'm trying again. It is my goal to work out at least 5 days a week (at least 2 of those days at Curves as I think I need some more resistance training to build "fat burning muscle"). I will also do my best to stay on target when it comes to eating (as much as that's probably going to be a struggle). I CAN DO THIS!!!!
Today I began by doing my exercises, that way I don't have to worry about it throughout this busy day of mine. I am very proud of myself because I was initially going to stop after doing my 20 minutes of cardio. Then I talked myself into doing the 10 min resistance training video. After that, I forced myself into doing the 10 minutes of abs. I HATE the fact that already, on day 1, I was already trying to talk myself out of doing my exercise (especially since this WAS supposed to be a CURVES day). That said, I'm glad I did the 40 minutes. I'm off to take a shower then get some food in my system. I CAN DO THIS!!!!! (Failure is NOT an option)
BREAKFAST: 1/2 c. egg substitute, 1 English muffin, 1 small tomato, 3 almonds (to curb hunger while making breakfast), DanActive yogurt, water
LUNCH: Asian chicken salad (Kelsey's), water - less than 500 cal (according to menu)
SNACK: 12 cherries, 1 mozzarella stick, water
SNACK: 90 cal. chocolate pudding, water; tea with milk
DINNER: 2 chicken fajitas, 6 tortilla chips with salsa or guacamole, water, 1/2 c. flattened ginger ale (tummy problems)
Exercise: 20 min. ignite cardio, 10 min. pump it up, 10 min. abs (FIRM)

Well...I finally feel like I can start again. I realize my workouts might be a little on the odd side for the next week and a half (due to marking of EQAO), but I hope to get back on a better regime than I have the past month or so. So, I'm going to try not to beat myself up over it, but put that behind me and move forward. So, here goes.
Weigh-in on Saturday, June 30: 167.5 lbs
BREAKFAST: 1 berry/cheese struddle, couple bites of blueberry muffin, DanActive yogurt, water (**weird breakfast, especially for trying to get back on track, I know. However, there wasn't any bread out for me to make my toast so I ate what I could so that I could get on with my workout)
SNACK: 1 piece of swiss cheese, water
LUNCH: caesar salad with turkey (made at home...shared among 4 people), water
SNACK: 210 cal of cereal, milk, water; tea with milk
