TIP OF THE DAY: Yes, chicken is a healthy choice, but keep in mind that dark meat contains about twice as much fat as white meat. Also, chicken skin is fattening. You can remove the skin yourself before cooking, choose skinless varieties, or take off the skin before you eat it. Basically, however you choose to avoid it ... just make sure you do.
Today I walked 7,600 by the time I left work today! When I came home I was not really in the mood to work out but I got on the Wii and did the Aerobics and balance for 20 minutes. So my total steps for the day are 11,427 steps!! WOO HOO!!
I found that packing my lunch and breakfast REALLY helped control what I ate. But for lunch tomorrow I want to have a salad that work has that is SO good, and instead of having the thousand island dressing, I'm going to have balsamic vinaigrette.
OK so on to what I ate;
BREAKFAST:
1 English muffin-2 points
1 Tbs. peanut butter-2 points
LUNCH:
(Turkey sandwich)
2 slices bread-3 points
2 slices of turkey-1 points
1 slice of cheese-2
4 small slices of tomato-0 points
(NO MAYO!!!!)
1 string cheese-2 points
SNACK:
17 wheat thins-3 points
WORKOUT:
20 minute Wii Fit-gained 1 point
DINNER:
1 cup beef and broccoli stir fry-4 points
20 mini shrimp-5 points
DESSERT:
1 cup yogurt-2 points
3 strawberries-0 points
Total points: 26 out of 30 points for the day. But after the workout I GAINED 1 point so the TRUE total is 25 out of 30 points for the day.
I also drank 10.5 glasses of water!!! WOO HOO!! But I am sure I will be getting up a few times tonight going to the bathroom :)
Well the week is 1/2 over, make the best of it!!

ReplyDeleteThanks! I feel much butter with all that I have done this week. But I still feel like I have stayed the same with my weight. I can normally "feel" if I lost a pound or something. But I just feel the same
