We attended my aunt's wedding over the weekend. I pretty much pigged out! But, now I'm back and starting over again. I weighed myself and I still weigh the same.

b: grapefruit juice and a hard boiled egg I think

L: strawberry- banana protein shake

S: caramel corn rice cake

D: chicken bryan with small side of spaghetti

Drank nothing but water. Did aquatic aerobics with my new friend at the gym. I think that was for an hour and then I did 25 mins of cardio. Dh put up a basketball hoop and we played basketball for probably an hour- hour and a half. That was fun!
Tabitha and I are going to try a new class from Mon-Fri. Today we're going to do spinning! Wednesday I'm not sure and Thursday will be pilates.

That's so cool you have someone to go to the gym with! It really makes the workout a lot more fun, doesn't it?

Good job getting back in the game today after the wedding last weekend. You can do it!

Tomorrow I meet with a new trainer. She said she's going to tell me about this three day diet thing. Sounds like boot camp to me!
I think I'm doing pretty good..I just need to make better choices on the weekends. We love to eat out on the weekends- I go wild sometimes!

 

[pearlieq]

Congrats on making your exercise goal! Wonderful work!!!!

I hear you about weekends--the schedules goes all in the trash and we eat out more, which can be really tricky to navigate. I find if I can keep the weekdays mostly OP and not go too, too crazy on the weekends (start scoping out restaurants for your favorite healthy entrees--Chili's, Applebees, and Ruby Tuesday are all very nutrition-friendly) it usually works out OK.

Hope you have a great Friday!!!!

 

[LilMamiBella]

Thanks Pearlie for the restaurant suggestions!

I just typed a long post and then the connection timed out. I'll just say that I met with the trainer and she had some good ideas. She recommended I see Super size me so I picked it up and we'll be watching it sometime this weekend. She has me going on a diet plus I'll be seeing her again on Tuesday for more info. Everything sounds good. She got me to pay for 12 sessions It wasn't cheap lol but I think she'll really be able to help me. She was overweight as well and she really looks great now.
