I watched Julie and Julia the other night. It inspired me to start this blog about my weight loss journey. Yesteday, I bought Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred. Molly has been raving about it and doing it every day for months. I was worried that it would be too hard, and that I wouldn't be able to do it, but I think I can stick with it. Only 20 minutes a day, nd it has got to get easier!!
Today I am keeping Weight Watchers points for my food, and I did my Shred for the second day in a row. OMG, I can't move! If I get on the floor to play with the baby, I can hardly get up! I hope my muscles let me do Shred day 3.
So, today, breakfast was turkey bacon, 2 pancakes, coffee, and Oj. Mid morning I had yogurt, Lunch was Bonos BBQ turkey, rosted corn, green beans, and a couple of my husbands french fries. I couldn't resist the buttered toast, which I know was not the best choice! This blog must be honest though, I need to share my triumphs and failures. (I would like to point out that my keyboard sucks, 99% of any typos I may make will not be my fault!)
Finally, dinner... I roasted a whole chicken with lemon and rosemary, I cooked red potatoes with the chicken, nd baked some cornbread dressing. I know the dressing wasn't good, but it was already in the house and beggars can't be dieters for some side dishes. If it makes you feel any better, it was crunchy and it sucked. I am going to figure my points total for today and get back t you. I am allowed 34 points right now because I weigh ALOT... OK, honestly? I weigh 270!! Holy Shit, I weighed 180 2 years ago. (Shaking my head) Moving back to Florida, reuniting with my husband, and having a baby while working at my challenging school has not been good for my emotional eating, no doubt.
No matter!! Time to change. Time to get back to good habits, Time to stop having chest pains and turning away from my flub in the mirror. Unfortunately, it is also time to hear my own stomach hit my thighs while doing jumping jacks....sigh.... not for long. not for long. I was a real head turner for a while there, and I wouldn't mind living in that skin again. Wish me luck!!
