what is going on with me?

I have not been good, YES I know Tuesday I was ready to eat healthy on Wednesday. Well that didn't exactly happen.

Tomorrow is a new week for me, so I am starting over. This weekend nothing really is going on so I can focus on exercise and eating healthy.

Tomorrows HEALTHY menu:

Breakfast: 4 points plus total
Oatmeal from here (4p+) I think I'm gonna have strawberry and cream so good! I actually bought a bunch of boxes at target for 1- 1.50 a box with 5 servings each. pretty good deal. and super YUMMY!! :P
pear (0p+)

Lunch: 4 points plus total
bagel thin (3p+)
1 tablespoon cream cheese (1p+)
1/2 tablespoon raspberry preserves (0p+)
cantaloupe (0p+)

side note: Lunch is always hard for me. I want to have fun lunches that are easy to put together and low point. I get very bored, very easily.. so please I need ideas.

Snack before the gym :): 1 points plus total
string cheese (1p+)
orange (0+)

Dinner: 6 points plus total
1 serving of vegetable ravioli from Whole Foods (4p+)
2 tsp oil (2p+) one for pasta, one for...
roasted asparagus! so yummy.

So far thats 11 points plus, out of my 29... but don't worry I'll eat my points. Probably in ice cream form :) I am guilty to admit that I love Weight Watchers Ice Cream bars.

PS I want to go away so bad!!

oh yeah, I wasn't going to post this because I am not happy to say I haven't been eating good. I decided to do it because it will be motivation to show you guys I can do this!

Fell off the "WW" band wagon.

Once again.. I fell off the band wagon, and found myself eating bad.  I did good all day at work, then all of a sudden I found myself snacking on bugles.. yes bugles, so bad for you! I don't know what I was thinking, I obviously wasn't. It then started a trend of bad eating for the rest of the day/night. I am done eating for the night. 

I am actually watching the biggest loser, when all of a sudden I was like "why do I keep doing this??"

Tomorrow, I will start over!! I am actually thinking about changing my Weigh-In day to Thursday. Friday has been my Weigh-In day since I started. I think the change will be good. On Thursdays at my work the bake shop sells all the stuff they have been making with the students all week. Every week I want to buy something, but can't because my Weigh-In is the next day. When I deprive myself of something that is usually when I eat horrible the next day. I am thinking if I Weigh-In on Thursdays, give my self a treat BUT count it I will do better in the long run. Thoughts, suggestions?  I'm going to think this through and Weigh-In on Friday this week and decide next week.

Sorry I have been MIA since I started the blog. My weeks are CRAZY. Mondays and Wednesdays I have class and I don't get home till after 9. After packing my lunch and getting ready for bed.. the last thing I want to do is blog. Tuesdays I usually do homework and feel guilty if I am not. Then Life was just busy this weekend.

I had a baby shower on Saturday for my cousin, can't wait for the baby to come! First great-grandchild on my dads side of the fam.. so exciting. My cousin (the new dad) and I were always together and having when we were younger, its so weird to try to see him as a dad.

Sunday we celebrated my birthday at my Nanny's house. My nanny is my mom's mom. So I had a lot of family time this weekend. Which was great since it is rare.

HEALTHY menu for tomorrow:
Breakfast:
~ 1 cup un-sweetened applesauce (0p+)
~ 1 kiwi cut and mixed in applesauce (0p+)
...so good, gives the un-sweetened applesauce a sweeter flavor. I also love mixing in blueberries and strawberries. 

Lunch:
~ 1/2 serving of tuna salad I made (2p+) ... nothing special
~ flatout light wrap (2p+) with lettuce and grape tomatoes
~ Orange
(tuna salad= 1 can tuna (3p+) 1tbls mayo made with olive oil (1p+) 4 p+ for whole thing.. two servings = 2p+ each... yeah boring i know)

Dinner:
~ Frozen dinner.. gluten free lasagna (sad i know) (7p+)
~ pear, or possibly another orange. Takes longer to eat and occupies me wanting to snack throughout class.

When I get home I'll probably have a small snack.

thanks for reading! Can't wait to post more.
