I’ve not exercised since last Wednesday. If I keep this up I won’t be able to keep my streak of 2 times a week. I want to push it to 5 times a week but it’s just not looking good. I’m really focused to getting exercise in today for sure. I just can’t let my lazy win.
My eating hasn’t been great, but it’s not been overly bad either. I want to get more veggies in me on a daily basis. So far I get about 2 servings. Boost that to 5 servings and I’ll be happy. Next week I want to move it to 3 servings. Those baby steps that I know will stick are what I’m looking for. I feel good about the changes I know I can do with eating.
I go grocery shopping tomorrow or Thursday which will give me a reason to have yummy foods in the house. Oh and I’m looking for more zuchinni recipes, so if you know any… send them my way. I love smashed cauliflower, it’s my new mashed potatoes. I don’t even miss potatoes in any way but baked. Just can’t give up the baked potato. If you have healthy, yummy recipes you want to share, I’m all ears. Leave them in my inbox and I’ll surely try them!
I didn’t weigh in this week. It’s PMS week so I didn’t want to feel absolutely horrible knowing what the scale would have reflected. I’ll weigh in next Monday and see how things are. It would be nice to be 5 lbs lighter by the end of this month. It’s a push, but still possible. It depends on if I get this lazy out of me.

Congratulations on your progress! There’s a cookbook written by Jessica Seinfeld. It’s called Deceptively Delicious and it features recipes that include pureed fruit and vegetables. You can’t see them or taste them, but they are there! And their nutrients are in you! It sounds like it would be perfect for you. The brownie recipe rocks, IMHO.

That cookbook sounds right up my alley! I’m going to have to check it out. Definitely a way to sneak it into foods. Maybe even Master wouldn’t notice!
(((((luna))))) You rock, girl! Sounds like you’ve got all the right attitudes about keeping a realistic outlook, and making small improvements that will add up to big benefits.
i really like AllRecipes.com for good new recipe ideas, and they have special category searches like “affordable meals” and “heart healthy meals” etc. if you do a little browsing. And best of all, full access is free!
Are you watching your fluids intake, too? i know for me, getting in more glasses of water daily is quite a challenge, but very beneficial.
Aww thank you. I’m not ready to calorie count again, but I’m keeping a loose food diary with TweetWhatYouEat.com. I get plenty of fluids. On an average day I have over 100 oz.
Thanks for the website suggestion, I’ve been there before but it’s been awhile. I’ll have to go check it out again!
My favourite zuchinni recipe is a frittata. You fry an onion along with a grated carrot and grated zuchinni. Add some beaten egg (as much as you like). Cook till the bottom is set, sprinkle on some grated cheese if you like (it is still good without) and then put under a hot broiler to set the top. Serve cut in wedges.
It is good hot, but also good cold for lunches.
You’ve just got to take one pound at a time and before you know it, you’ll be at your goal weight
My weight yoyos by as much as 1.5kg around pms time, so I’m with you at not weighing yourself at that time. Nothing more depressing than to see it go up when you’ve been so good…
