4/10 Hot and What Not Daily Thread

[Kim1964]

Woohoo, made it to Day 4 without blowing it on Day 3!! I'm a happy camper.

Today is a planned day off from exercise. After I put the kids on the bus I am going to weigh in, and MAYBE stay for the meeting. I also might splurge on some WW brand low points snacks so I don't get bored with food.

I'm sticking with 23 points for now.

Breakfast: 2 point bar, banana (3)
Lunch: WW ravioli, red pepper slices (5)
Dinner: chicken, asparagus, potato (5)
Snacks: soy chips (4), yogurt with strawberries (3), 3 to be determined

Hang in there, everyone!!

I feel like I did pretty good yesterday. Hoping to get some walking in today before the rains set in. But I'm not sure when, I have to call this morning to get an appointment for my eldest. He has a rash on his leg since Easter that hasn't changed. No worse, but not better either. We thought it was a scrape from the playground. It is in that shape, kinda heavy patch towards the knee and then tapers off down the shin. Bad Mommy I am, I haven't looked at it since Easter. We put some ointment on it. It didn't hurt. It doesn't itch. It didn't look infected. He did complain and I forgot. I wouldn't have know if my DH didn't see it yesterday while they were outside playing wearing shorts. Talk about bad dreams last night. Another Bad Mommy award for me. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Eczema was the diagnosis. 1% Hydrocortisone & Eucerin lotion are the treatment. At least it won't cause his leg to fall off.

Any way- hoping for a mile of walking today.

Well, that was ugly....my weigh in, that is. I wasn't going to look until next week when I have more than a week of being on program behind me, but I did look. The good news is I know what to do and I'm more determined than ever to stick with it. I also bought some 1 point bars.....pricey, but in the flavors that are my weakness (peanut butter/chocolate and raspberry/chocolate).

I did ok yesterday, till dinner. I like my cooking too much I guess. The last time I lost a significant amount of weight, I was walking everyday. I lost 40lbs doing that and points. Hope that plan will work again!

I can't exercise yet as I am still uncontrolled on my asthma. Hopefully in a few more days I'll feel more like getting on the treadmill...and the weather is going to break soon...can't wait for that...

But I am trying to do my points

I'm finally here:

breakfast - skipped, we were late
walked - 3.2 miles
lunch - Panera Bread broccoli and cheddar soup, baguette, 1/2 chipotle chicken sandwich
(way to much bread and cheese today)
drink - Iced tea w/ 3 splendas

snack - mini bagel and cream cheese (again way to many carbs)

dinnner - ??? possibly Subway.

must be a bread day, not good! Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I was just calling my DH to see if I could get him to stop by Subway. I figure, it was good enough for Jarrett.

I got my one mile in. Hoping for more later. Not sure what dinner will be now that DH didn't answer the phone.
