I don't really like the title of this blog. I just slapped it up there because I wanted to start. I'd really like to change it.
Others that were in the running were:
Paige 365: The Fat Files
Paige's Hunger Game
Paige On Fire (Can you guess what I was reading at the time?)
Forty, Fat and Fabulous
Any ideas? Any votes?
Almost two weeks in...I really wanted to quit today. I think partially because I got on the scale and it showed a two pound gain. Why be so careful if I'm going to gain, why not eat what I want. I know, I know...it's water, I had that salty pizza last night, I shouldn't weigh myself everyday. Etc. The head knows but the heart? flesh? whatever still wanted to quit. The other reason would be that I'm still dealing with the emotions and thoughts fluffed up by the doctor's talk yesterday. But dealing with them and not eating them is what I did. Damn, this is going to get tough.
Breakfast was PBJ on Kashi waffles.
Mid morning snack (Boy was I missing those COOKIES) was a dove egg (the last one)
Lunch was chicken salad and tortilla chips
Afternoon snack was a serving of cheezits.
Supper is going to be this recipe which is in the over RIGHT NOW! of chicken smothered in a mixture of Greek yogurt, Parmesan and spices and some instant potatoes I found lurking in the cabinet.
Calories came out to 1553/1930. I might have a Skinny Cow ice cream later but I wasn't very active today so maybe I'll just leave it. I'm anxious for my second weigh in on Sunday.
Oh someone asked about the smoked chicken and I have to tell you I'm a spoiled girl. My brother has a smoker and once in a while he'll give me 4 or 5 smoked chicken breasts for my freezer. It really does make a nice change from regular chicken for sandwiches, salads etc. I think they sometimes have them in the deli department too.
I like Paige on Fire and and I don't know what you were reading.
ReplyDeleteYou'll have bad days but keep at it.
I love Paige on fire. I think you totally are so bam! new blog title ;)
ReplyDeleteCan I have some of your dinner please? That looks tasty. I've just started using Greek yogurt this way. I usually only see yogurt as a desert (mainly cause I don't like it plain) but I had it on this beans and rice stuff and it was really good. I like this idea on chicken. I may have to try that.
I love the Paige on Fire title....and I too am at a loss as to what you were reading...I know how hard it is to see the scale go up when you're working hard to get it to go in the other direction. I've decided to only weigh myself once a week when I get started in a few weeks. I'm actually really looking forward to doing more. I would just like to fit into my clothes. I hate that I have nothing that fits me!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work....everyday is a challenge, but you've got the strength and the will....I know you do!
Love "Paige on Fire" - and I know what you were reading! I've read them, too, all three one after the other.
ReplyDeleteI agree that Paige on Fire sounds cool. When Roomie "started" a weight loss blog (not sure she ever posted on it), she used something like "winning at the losing game." I thought that was interesting.
ReplyDeleteI, too, vote for Paige on Fire...take the bad days in stride with the good. You're doing great but I know what you mean about the head knows but the heart...
