Week 8 Weigh In

Posted by missaermo in General, Weigh in, Weight Loss and tagged with

Today was week 8 weigh in. I did fairly good considering how little exercise I got this week. I lost 2.1 pounds. Down a total of 11.9 pounds. Im now in the 230’s so that really helps to motivate me!
Hopefully this week will be even better!
Although I have to confess that I went out for lunch today and had a huge burger and fries. To be honest, after eating at home and eating healthy for the past while I didnt really enjoy it! It didnt taste as good as I remembered and it made me feel icky, which I havent felt since I stopped eating bad stuff.
Hope everyone has a good and successful week!

Week 9 Meal Plan

Posted by missaermo in General, Meal Plans, Meals and tagged with , , , , ,

This weeks meal plan:

Saturday: Corn Meal Breaded Trout and Roasted Herb Potato Wedges

Sunday: Huevos Rancheros

Monday: Tex-Mex Bean Salad with Creamy Salsa Dressing

Tuesday: Bell Pepper and Tomato Soup

Wednesday: Chicken Souvlaki Sandwich

Thursday: Sweet and Sour Meatballs

Friday: Stir-Fry

Today I had The Corn Meal Breaded Trout and Roasted Herb Potato Wedges and they were both really good! I had never had trout before but I would definitely have it again! Also Thursday for supper I made Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo and it was *amazing*!! It was so good that I said to my husband “I can’t believe I made something that tastes this good!” haha

I’m really proud of my husband and I, we have been sticking to the meal plans. I really enjoy getting to try something new every night and I’m actually not minding doing the cooking!

This week eating wise I feel like I have been doing a great job, I usually am right at my calorie goal or just under. We started the week off stong with exercising (An hour on Sunday, Monday and Wednesday) but we have gone down hill a little. Not the end of the world, we will do better next week. Plus, some exercise  is better than none!

My Fitbit stats for Wednesday.

Steps: 12,809

Distance: 8.65km

Very Active Mins: 62 mins

Water Consumed: 2250 ml

Went for an hour walk today. It was brutal! Some days the time flies by when I’m walking and some days it drags on. Yesterday it went so slow! It probably didn’t help that I was starving the whole time! haha

I have the day off work today! Yay! Have a great day everyone!

Fitbit

So I have been meaning to post for a while about my Fitbit. For those of you who don’t know what it is, it’s a “pedometer” that goes on you wrist and tracks your steps and distance, etc. It syncs with your computer or your cell phone to give you that info as well as enables you to track your calories eaten and burned, your sleep, your water intake. Check it out at fitbit.com. Anyway you can add your friends and see how many steps they take which is fun. My husband and I both have them and it’s a fun competition to have the most steps. So I’m going to try to post how many steps I get everyday. Right now the goals I have set for myself are 7000 steps a day, 4km, 2000ml of water and 30 very active minutes.

Yesterday (Monday) I got 13,144 steps! 8.83km, 66 very active mins and drank 2250ml of water. That has been my best day yet!

Week 7 Photo Update

I see a little change but obviously after losing 10 pounds at my size it isn’t going to be a huge change. It will get better. I can’t wait until the day where I see an obviously noticeable difference.
