Popcorn

Audrey just caught me eating some of that popcorn from the workroom. Kettle corn with yummy sweetness! Its the only thing I had all day that was less than good for me and that alone is a big deal. So I expect to see Audrey's admission of CHEESE CURDS coming soon on her blog! Here I am eating rubber cheese while she's off eating the most perfect kind of cheese from my homeland! :)

I have been doing really well with my smoothie in the morning keeping me full till lunch time, having a snack in the afternoon and then being set with dinner. I also like being much more aware of what I am eating. Trust me, these are a lot of changes for me. I just love food way too much and could eat anything at anytime. It was real sweet when my roommates in college called me the house garbage disposal. I was always the one who got their remnants. But I was also 110lbs back in the day! I needed it then but of course you never believe everyone when they say that one day you won't be able to eat that way. :( that makes me very sad

Well I just got a text from Luke and we are having date night in Savannah at the Bohemian hotel. What do i do!??!? I only like one meal from there! I'm sure they have some good salads or something. I'm sure this will include some wine as well so a workout is not looking promising. Guess the rest of the week will have to be intense! I will NOT weigh in on Monday with nothing less than a negative result!

Dance class

The dance class last night was FANTASTIC! I wish I could do it everyday! I plan on going every Monady. It will be a great way to start my week!

I love the feeling after working out. If I could only remember that when I'm feeling lazy and not wanting to!

EWWW!

WELL ALRIGHT! I just determined that fat free mozzarella cheese feels like rubber and tastes like rubber! I might as well just skip the cheese and gnaw on a real piece of rubber and burn some calories! This is very hard to handle as a Wisconsin cheese girl. I'll see how it tastes after it is cooked, but I for sure will never taste that stuff out of the bag!

I weighed in today and I'm really looking forward to this adventure. My neighbor is getting married in a few weeks so hopefully her and I can be a good motivation for each other. I didn't eat ANY "crap" today and I felt really good.

Mangiamo's has really been my downfall the past 6 months. You would think that between school, bartending/waiting tables and photography I would have been busy enough to not gain weight, but damn that pizza and pasta! No more free meals for me!

I'm trying out the dance class tonight at Bluffton School of Dance, I hope it is as fun as Hip Hop was last year.

Oh yeah.... I added strawberries and blueberries to the Right Size smoothie and it tasted MUCH better! I also left the lid on the blender cup so I didn't have to listen to the FIZZ! :)

The Start

Today I had my first right size smoothie.....I will ignore the fact that it fizzed the whole time I drank it. ummm???? The first sip was ok, then I tasted something weird but the rest was fine. Good taste but I for sure will be adding fruit to it next time! The stuff was sure expensive! It better be worth it! And NO the crazy guy on the radio didn't get me to order it, I bought it at CVS.

The smoothie made me full but I have had a lightheaded feeling since. I'm used to caffeine and eating whenever I feel that way. So I have been drinking water in hopes that will help. I don't think it will be possible for me to get rid of soda and coffee....:( baby steps!

I'm going to try the 3 hour diet and see how that works for me. I normally eat every 3 hours anyway so now I have to work on portion control and what it is I am actually eating! Some of the recipes in the 3 hour diet book look good but the portions are sooooo tiny! He tricks you with all the recipes being 4 portions. I normally only cook for myself not 4!

Working at a pizza/pasta restaurant has not helped me these past 6 months at all. That is something I need to focus on as well. I also ate like a total Wisconsinite back home. Not a thing I put in my stomach could have been healthy for me. But my mom's cooking is so worth it! I didn't gain any weight but I can't imagine what it has done for my heart! :)

I'm headed to work all night for New Years Eve and all day tomorrow. YAY! No crazy indulging for me tonight but I'll be stuck around yummy bad food for 24+ hours!
