My Determination

My determination to be 20 lbs lighter by March is kind of bittersweet. Bitter because I don't feel like I am going to make it. However I still keep to my determination. Sweet because the plan I put into place are actually working. With my lunches plan and ready in the morning I just grab and go. Yesterday lunch was really good. Southwestern Chicken Salad!

I started with bagged salad it's really quite the best way for me to get it. I dont have to cut it up.
Then I add already prepared chicken breast strips ( not fried chicken strips) These had a southwestern santa fe seasoning grilled into them. I heated them in the microwave 60 seconds and then I added Torilla chips strips also Santa fe seasoning with Thousand Island dressing. It was so good and very filling. So I am having the same thing today but I will be adding some tomatoes to it. I had the tomatoe yesterday but I did not have a knife to cut it up. But I am prepared today. When the 3:00 grazing time came around I had some lite and fit Dannon yogurt White chocolate with raspberries. I was suprise how good it was. But I need to crunch something so I bought a cookie ( chocolate chip not really a favorite but it was available).

Dinner was done so when I got home Tag had taken the porkchops out of the freezer and heated them up in the oven and made some noodles with vegetables. This was also filling. Then at 10:00 pm the second grazing time of the day I had 2 ritz crackers with cheese and Propel fitness water.

This morning I started with a Seasame bagle toasted with butter this was about 8 points
Since I am having the same lunch and snack this will be about 8 points which leaves me 16 more points to use for the day.

I got some new workout dvd. Amped by billy banks it come with the 3 lbs bar to use with the work out but for the first week you are not to use the bar until you get use to the routine. I will let you know how that works out.

Well its lunch time!

My discovery!

As a little girl I did not play with dolls, did not play house. I climbed trees and explored how things worked. Tried to make my bike do things it was not meant to do. My mother complain when I was a toddler she would dress me in frilly dresses to play and I would prompty find mud or dirt. My mother and father had a loving relationship but I really did not see my father much. He worked the night shift. I had a close relationship with my mother. She taught me to crochet and make clothes. She kept a beautiful home and was a great cook. I felt that my father did not appreciate her enough so I decided that I would not get married and deal with someone who did not appreciate me. When my mother died it totally crippled my father. I realized just how much he appreciated her. When she first died he would just sit in a chair and just stare for hours. Finally I started talking to him and he revealed just how much he needed her. Then I decided that I should not get married because I wou...

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS DRESS!

I was inspired by this blog SEW MUCH FABRIC, SEW LITTLE TIME. She is using her fabric stash to create a basic wardrobe. I just love all the T’s and skirts that she has made, so I have decided to work on doing the same. But first (no I am not putting it off) I have to finish this dress that is making me angry. I had a wonderful tropical print fabric which would have been the perfect summer dress. I kept the fabric for several summers and did nothing with it. I finally decided the make a dress; unfortunately it was not a summer dress. Well it is a summer dress but its not the perfect summer dress. I have decided to go back to not making decision when I am on my cycle. (ironic, huh!) Granted when you have not had a cycle for two months the PMS that usually sounds the warning bell is not so loud. Never make decision to cut your hair(I'm wearing a wig her name is Oprah) or use perfect summer fabric on a non summer dress. So my project is to redo this dress and create the perfect su...
