DAY FIFTEEN

One week weigh-in results..........258.........Down 6 nasty pounds!  YIPEE!!!

I woke up extremely early this morning because of something that explained my ravenous eating slip last night.  Another YIPEE!  Haha, I won't let "that time of the month" slow me down!  (or cause me to overeat any more than I already do.  And as embarrassing as it is the "binging" really has been controlled so much more than usual) :)

8:30

Quicky Shakshuka

-2 Eggs
-1/2 Cup fresh spicy salsa
-1/2 Cup tomato sauce
-2 TBSP water

-1 Slice whole wheat bread
-1 Cup Lemon ginger tea








Okay, I have a dear friend who works at Gold's Gym.  I went there this morning to get my body fat percentage measured.  It was 41.3%.  That is 1.3% into the Morbidly Obese range....ICK!!! It looks like a healthy range of body fat percentage for women my age is 21-33%.  So my goal is to shoot somewhere in that range! :) I think I will get it measured every 30 days, along with my body measurements.  She is also going to whip up a strength training routine for me.  I feel like I need to be pumping some iron in addition to all the cardio that I am doing.

11:30

-1 TBSP Crunchy peanut butter

Today was a CORE 20 class and a 40 STRETCH class.  I don't think I've worked an AB muscle in....well it has been a long while since I can't remember the last time I did anything to create a burn like I have right now.

1:30

-1 Package tuna
-1 TBSP RWV dressing
-8 baby carrots
-5 Small celery stalks

3:30 rolled around and just wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat.

The boys and I went to the store and picked up some tasty things for dinner.  Actually we picked up things for one of my FAVORITE dishes.  Haluski.  I decided to alter it ever so slightly to make it healthier and honestly, I think I prefer it without the noodles.  :)

5:30

-1 1/2 Cups cabbage and onions
-3 oz. Smoked Turkey sausage

-1 Cup white tea
-1 Orange











Here's what I did....

1/3 head of cabbage shredded.
1 onion sliced
1 TBSP chicken soup base (bullion)
4 TBSP water
1 TBSP I can't believe it's not butter (or butter) :)
Fresh cracked pepper
Smoked Turkey Sausage

In a pan, dissolve the bullion in the 4 TBSPs of water.  Add the onion and pepper and cook for a few min.  Then add the cabbage.  Put the butter in and cook for a few more min.  Add the sausage and serve when sausage is browned and heated through.   Enjoy! :)

After dinner I enjoyed an orange and a movie with my kiddos!  Great day! :)
