DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN!

[Minnie]

Hey there everyone!

Tomorrow is my big day of restarting SBD (ph1). For those SBD among us my fave breakfast tip is to have the breakfast quiche made ahead and ready to go. There is a spinich quiche recipe in the book but since veggies are my enemy I don't use it.

Here is mine:

Turkey bacon or turkey sausage fully cooked & crumbled
eggs or egg beaters
low fat cheese
ff half/half or skim milk

Mix all ingredients well and then pour into a pan or into muffin tins or mini-muffin tins and bake at a 350 degree oven.

I put these into serving size individual baggies and then freeze. Microwaves great and is a quick morning breakfast that is Ph1 friendly.

I'm in the middle of making a batch right now. I love the grilled ahead chicken breast idea and will try to get to that this week. For now I have lf ham/cheese rollups planned for lunch.

 

[monymony3471]

Minnie: that's really a great Idea with the making of the muffin size quiches.
I usually just scramble together peppers, mushrooms, with eggbeaters and cheese. I don't mind the tomatoe juice.

cheese sticks are my life savers for snacks and the dannon carb control vanilla yogurt.

Lunch is always salad with chicken. I can boil it or pan fry with olive oil. (the chicken)

Dinner I try to be creative and vary our meals.

eeyore45: can you explain that exercise to me again. I am not understanding it and my arms could use all the help they can get.

Lexmelinda: You have the perfect line there,

I just danced like no one was watching.

There's a great tag for you!!!!!

 

[lexmelinda]

Today's calorie count........drum roll, please............1360!

See ya tomorrow!

Hey everyone. I'm joining in.
I need to lose a lot more than most of you - like I could survive if I lost 200 pounds.
Ha.
So I'm just going to start trying again to eat healthy instead of whatever I want.
Today I had a bowl of cereal for breakfast, a bowl of cereal for dinner and 4 small pieces of frozen pizza.
plus lots of water and low sugar cranberry juice.
I wanted more pizza, but we had a kid over and he ate 7 pieces on his own.
They were small, after all.

This next week should be interesting for me. I'm severly broke and about to go out of town.
I'm going to try the ramen noodle/soup diet.
Ha.
Plus whatever Hampton Inn has for free in the mornings.

Welcome...we'll just take it one pound at a time!

Yayyyy! Celery is here!

I really like the 85% of our grocerys should be from the perimeter of the store tip! I think I "learnt" that in WW once or twice!

You are not going to believe this...but I'm not HUNGRY! Not one bit! I have learned that Protein keeps you full alot longer, but I am loving not having physical hunger. I did suffer from "head-hunger" last night during a time of stress. I actually thought I wanted CANDY! (I cant eat candy, FYI) So I was briefly a basket case!

Love the Cosco HUMMUS, I know I said that already! I have to have veggies at the ready in the fridge. Just in case!

I'm sore from yesterday's 100 arm raises (overachiever) but I'm doing more today. I need bum excercises. Squats? Lunges? I need to focus on my danger zone but the rest of this package needs help!







OH, and water sucks! (havent gotten Crystal Lite yet...)


((slosh, slosh, slosh))

Since you guys like hummus so much, you might like one of my tricks. I like tuna, but I don't like it by itself. Mayo is of the devil (if you're trying to be healthy), so I resorted to hummus last year to give it a bit of moisture and some flavor.
Yum!
To me anyway.
And McCormick makes pesto seasoning - basil, oregano and some other stuff in the spice aisle -
It's even better with that added!
I think I'm going to have some now.
Minus the hummus, cuz I don't have any right now.
So maybe a TAD bit of mayo.
Just a little.

Have sex, of course!!!!!!

LOL Well I guess I'll tell Dh he needs to be more readliy available then the junk food!!!!

I am trying that tomarrow! I HATE fat free mayo or Miracle Whip...I think it's gross. Hummus is SOOO delish! I cant wait to roast pita chips to dip in it. HEY!!! I just thought of something! Isn't there soy based chips????? I'll have to look tomarrow when I go get some flav-a-flav for my water! Have I mentioned I dis like water? LOOK at my signature line. I LOVE my diet Puppies (that's what Norah my 2 yr. old calls it!!!!)

 

[aries1980]

Ok ladies Day One and lets see I started the morning off with a bowl of bananas and cream oatmeal from MR. Quacker of course and forced down a glass of water with it. I had a glass of grape juice and then Dh and DD went to the park where he tricked me... I told him we had to walk a mile at least I NEEDED to do a mile. Well I said i think we walked half a mile lets turn around and go back he pushed me to go just a little further there should be a marker somwhere around here that tells us how far.... park bench after park bench... theres no marker hunnie lets turn around (FYI-looked like rain the whole time, and I've got a two yr old in a stroller) Finally the MILE MARKER sign and what did it say 1.8 miles and then he said now you can turn around and walk back. So I walked 3.6 miles YEAH ME!!!! SO after that I knew we had to have lunch even though I wasnt hungry I have to eat three meals a day so... I needed to go to Cosco and Pick up my soy beans aka edaname (so good) and the 100 calorie packs of snacks, plus the new weight watchers cookbook for some insight. So DH and DD and I end up at Ruby Tuesdays. Well I was really good there I had the salad bar and only picked a few fries from DD's plate and I had grilled chicken on wheat roll which I only ate about half of because I filled up on salad and veggies from the salad bar. Drank some more water and then off to Costco. Ok now after that long excursion and the hunt for Edname beans (soooooo goood i tell you) we got them and off to home we go. Drop off the Dh and DD and went out with a friend to AC Moore and did a little scrapbook shopping. Went home and ate roasted chicken a very small potato, corn, and big glass of water. So now I'm writing to all of you and will try to drink the rest of my water tonight before bed.

Oh yea I think I did those arm exercise thingy's too but not really sure if i did them right LOL

Lots of Luck and Love ladies

Hello!!! Mean(ish) Twinkie checking in.

Welcome to everyone I haven't said hi to yet. I am so excited to have you all along on this journey.

Sandy- what you posted earlier really spoke to me... glad you are here.

Ok and now for the checkin:

Yesterday I kept my commitment to you all.
I drank 64 oz of water (a huge increase from zero!!!).
I exercised for 40 minutes... I did a dance video with my kids. I held the 25lb one so it was like weight training too.
I was super awesome in the eating category. I ate 3 meals and 2 snacks... all with at least one slice of turkey for protein. Under 900 calories for the day... .... but I was snapish. And irritable. And had a terrible headache (my 2 liter a day diet coke habit).

Today:
I will have had 64 oz of water by bedtime (still working on it!)
No exercise.
Total calorie intake will be about 1300.
I babysat for a while this afternoon and took the kids to Wendy's and while I was there at a kid meal size french fry. It was good but 290 calories good thing I didn't have a biggie fry... that is 609!!!
I ate alot of protein today and right now I feel full and content. I woke up feeling good (no headache! no irritablility) and I have been nice all day.

Ok my commitment for tomorrow:
I will exercise for at least 30 minutes.
I will drink at least 70 oz of water.
I will continue to keep my food journal and count calories with a target of under 1400 while not being a mean mama.

OK everyone...I'm joining...I just read the first page and skipped to the last to say I'm in....low and behold I see my sis, pixiedust joined also a few posts before me. Must be family ESP. Anyway, tomorrow is Monday...a good time to start. I am going with UTAH MAMA and starting with a goal of 30 pounds in six months. Need to lose about 50, but that would be a great goal and realistic.

Yeah...I am so excited!!! Go team!

 

[UtahMama]

I did an egg for breakfast

beef and lentil soup (from my HUGE pot I made the other day...very filling!) for lunch

3 m&m's uh-0ohhhh! It's ok, they were yellow! Dont judge.

A hunk of beef Jerky

veggies DUNKED in mass amounts of hummus

about 1 and a half C steamed broccoli with lowfat cheese. After eating the cheese off, I sprayed the naked broccoli with I Can't Believe it's Fabio Spray/ but I wasnt hungry so it was hard to get down.

3 glasses of water!!!!!! Which is 3 more than normal...baby steps


Danced to the Best of ABBA, think I pulled something, though!

My church has a FREE aerobics class M, W, F (1 and a half hours)!!!! FREE
Pretty sure it's a SIGN to get my fat bum over there! I just need to bring myself and a mat. It's by a professional, so I'd be an IDIOT not to! oh....FREE babysitting...Ka-CHOW!!! Which is great for many reasons, impending snow being up there in my list of reasons.

I CAN NOT BE LAZY!!!!

Hi Sis!

 

[hinsok1]

I have really enjoyed reading this! I love the idea of being accountable to others in a similar situation . . . .

Lisa - definately want to hear more about Body for Life . . . I bought the book, but have not been able to get on track. I was hitting the gym for awhile, but fell off the wagon over the summer when the kids had so many activities. Last week I made it there two times . . . 50 min on the Elliptic, then 35 min the next day with 35 min of weights . . . Looking for four times this week. One down so far . ..

ok food journal for the day . . .

2 tbs chunky peanut butter
1 white toast (I know whole grain is better . . . but none in the house!)
6 oz skim milk

1 flour tortilla
mexican cheese
8 oz ginger ale

popcorn with margarine

piece of ham
3/4 cup potato soup
1 cub broccoli

protein drink

1630 cal

This is the part I hate . . . Calarie wise, I did ok today . . . But it is now 10pm and I am hungry . . . and I know I didn't eat the most well rounded meals . . . suggestions please! I hate veggies and fruit . . . or at least I don't crave them. Need items that are VERY easy to prepare and don't spoil quickly in my fridge! Everytime I say I'm going to eat better I buy a bunch of stuff then throw it out two week later . . . .

I also have a husband that can eat and eat and doesn't gain any weight and can actually forget that we have oreos in the house!!! He will also only eat corn, carrots, and beans for veggies. . . . And he thinks potatos are veggies!

Thank you for all the great ideas, now that I am caught up reading, I hope to be here more often!

 

[monymony3471]

I will post my progress as my day goes on, keeps me more in check.

Just did 33 minutes on the tread mill. I walked 2 miles, (well I ran some, speed walked some, and mostly a good steady pace walking). It says: I burnded 293 calories, and 92 fat calories. My pulse was 132 at the end. A good cardio rate (for my age).

This should jump my metabolism to the moon right?

Hope so.

I plan to eat scrambled eggs western style with black beans and ff cheese.

I'll check back after lunch.

The ladies who posted before me:

GREAT JOB! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. THANKS FOR DOING THIS AS A GROUP.

 

[crazy4dizney]

South Beach is WORKING fabulously. Last night I'd kill for a big soft pretzel...even though I wasnt hungry at ALL. In fact I'm full all day with the mostly protein. Just a craving. And since I really want one at WDW using a free snack credit, I'll just eat a veggie...and SMILE!
