Week 1 Day 7

Water: 30 or so ounces of water, plus additional fluids

Breakfast: Fruity Pebbles

Lunch: Bourbon Chicken, fried rice, green beans

Dinner: lasagna with garlic bread

Random: coffee, Limeade from Sonic, 1 Snickers (trial size), half a container of Sour Straws

Activity: nothing

Pumping: 1.5 oz in 1 session (I was WAY too tired to pump a second time, shame on me. I NEED TO GET BACK ON SCHEDULE!)

Today was Mother's Day and I was surprisingly (semi) well behaved in terms of eating, with minimal snacking, but one day I hope to eat fewer things that are LOADED with sugar (like that Snickers). ONE DAY.

And it was Mother's Day and on my first Mother's Day why worry about what I eat and what activity I do. I was going to relax and celebrate and RELAX. I get one day right? But back at it tomorrow. BACK AT IT.

I am really enjoying this and I hope to keep it up and make it better. To get better. BETTER. BETTER. BETTER. I just want to be better. I want to lose this muffin top (of which was confirmed today when I wore a dress and STILL had a muffin top).

Week 1 Day 6

Water: not much, but probably about 50 ounces

Breakfast: oatmeal with frozen raspberries in it with a teaspoon of sugar

Lunch: sandwich with ham and chicken, slice of provolone cheese, and mayo

Dinner: beef and vegetable cheese casserole (WW recipe)

Random: one cup of coffee with coffee creamer in it, 2 lasagna noodles, M&Ms, popcorn, cookie

Activity: ran on my parents road (probably about 1 mile or a little more total) and 26 sit ups

Pumping: I got 4 ounces in 1 session, after a missed feeding

Today I did really well until my mom and I went to a friends house for snacks and movie night. We watched "It's Complicated" and it was such a cute movie (highly recommend it). Oh well, we shall see what tomorrow (Mother's Day brings). I know it brings a pedicure, manicure, and lasagna. But who knows what else.

::Skampers off to bed:: It is after all already 1am.

Week 1 Day 5

Water: Probably about 30 ounces of water plus 30 or so ounces fruit punch, Kool-Aid, and sweet tea. (Yeah in terms of water intake, today SUCKED!)

Breakfast: Blueberry muffin (I went to Muffins for Mom with my sister and niece at my niece's elementary school. Which is that same elementary school that I went to. And teachers still remember me. I am infamous for being on GNN, their morning news show. It was kind of cool.)

Lunch: Fiji Apple Salad from Panera bread with one of the pieces of bread. I resisted the urge to eat my husbands piece.

Dinner: Spaghetti with pink sauce (spaghetti sauce with ricotta cheese blended into it)

Random: peanut butter M&Ms (probably about 20 all day), root beer float ice cream (probably about a cup)

Activity: I did not run today because I ate the muffin before running this morning (and if I eat before I run I puke so that was a no go). But we did walk around the mall and Wal-Mart. And when I was walking around Wal-Mart (probably about 1.5 hours) I was wearing Maggie (all 14.5 pounds of her).

Pumping output: probably about 2 or so ounces in one pump (I need to get on a better schedule here, but hey it is only day two of vacation).

Today was not TOO bad, but could have been better. I really need to talk to my husband about offering me M&Ms. He is not conducive to being on a "diet" and losing weight and I have about 1% will power, so we are not a good pair.

Tomorrow my goal is to drink more water. MUCH MORE WATER.

Week 1 Day 4

Disclaimer: Travel day = 12 hour drive from North Carolina to Central Florida. Yeah, didn't do so well today. Oh well right? Everyone deserves a cheat day.

Water: I drank a ton of sweet tea, but hardly any water today.

Breakfast: hotcakes and sausage from McDonalds
lunch: JR bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's, a few fries and Root Beer
dinner: nothing
random: 6 Archer Farms fruit strips, honey roasted peanuts, peanut butter M&M's

I pumped about 5 ounces all day in 2 pumping sessions.

I ate like crap today and did nothing but ride in a car and unload all the stuff in the car into my parents house.

(I may not update everyday but I will update as much as possible. And hopefully I will eat kind of healthy while on vacation.)

Week 1 Day 3

Weight: only updated on Mondays

Water intake: 80 oz. Or so (I forgot to take a water bottle with me while running errands)

Food log:

breakfast: vanilla Light and Fit yogurt

lunch: chicken with pasta, broccoli, and alfredo sauce

dinner: Nachos (homemade)

random: pretzel, 1/2 cup homemade applesauce, 2 fruit strips from Target (archer farms)

Activity: none, shopping and packing- I was just too busy getting ready for vacation to workout

Ounces pumped: in # of pump sessions: 4.5 oz in 2 (I missed a feeding while I was out in town doing last minute preparation for vacation)

Measurements: To come later, my husband has my tape measure.

Today I stayed busy and other than starving and needing to get something to eat when I got my hair done (pretzel) I feel like I did a pretty good job today. And back to running on Friday (tomorrow will be spent in the car traveling from NC to FL).

Week 1 Day 2

Weight: only updated on Mondays

Water intake: 96 oz.

Food log:

breakfast: vanilla Light and Fit yogurt

lunch: one serving beef baked ziti

dinner: chicken with pasta, broccoli, and alfredo sauce

random: 2 taco shells, 6 saltines with peanut butter, one bite of ice cream, I forgot a bag of popcorn (the individual size bag)

Activity: it was my day off

Ounces pumped: in # of pump sessions: 3.5 oz in 2 sessions

Measurements: To come later, my husband has my tape measure.

Today was not as hard to stay on track considering my daughter is teething and wanted to be held ALL day long. We even took a nap together. Today was my day off though, after running 3 days straight. Tomorrow it picks up again. Last run at home before going to FLORIDA!!

Week 1 Day 1

Weight: 161.5

Water intake: 96 or so ounces of fluids, water and sweet tea

Food log:

breakfast: Light & Fit vanilla yogurt

lunch: can of Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup, 10 saltine crackers

dinner: one serving Beef Baked Ziti (a Weight Watchers meal)

random: 2 oz dry ziti pasta, 1 cup broccoli, carrots, cauliflower in cheese sauce, small piece of red velvet cake, 1 teaspoon peanut butter, small amount of ice cream

Activity: 2 minutes of push-ups (15), 2 minutes of sit-ups (26), ran 1 mile in 9:26 (correct mile pace to pass PT test, but only ran 1 mile)

Ounces pumped: in # of pump sessions: 3.5 oz in 3 sessions (lame, I know)

Measurements: To come later, my husband has my tape measure.

I have decided being at home is horrible for a diet for me. All I want to do is eat when I am home by myself (well with Maggie) and that's NOT good.

My goals this week:

1. Take my fenugreek like needed.

2. Drink 80 ounces of fluids or more everyday.

3. Exercise at least 5 days this week.

4. Keep up to date with my Weight Watchers points.

5. Try not to eat to much unhealthy food on Thursday on the way to Florida.

6. Pump at least once per day.
