Wow, my stick-with-it-ness has sucked. I'm still trying to reach my goals and eating healthier, but I just haven't been posting everything here.
Lessee...yesterday I didn't make my water goal, but I did make my exercise goal. 30 minutes of strength training. =)
Saturday I had two regular sodas and Wendy's. :( (I did get a grilled chicken sandwich, though. Couldn't give up my fries.)
TODAY'S FOOD:
1 fat-free, no-salt added rice cake w/peanut butter and banana
1 hot dog on bun w/ketchup and mustard
broccoli salad
coca-cola black cherry vanilla
1 small caramel pecan brownie
spaghetti w/meat sauce
2 pieces garlic toast
salad w/wishbone red-wine vinaigrette spritz dressing
Water/Exercise:
Water is at 34 ozs and I'm still going, hopefully I'll make it
Exercise is nonexistant. I'm hoping once Julia goes down for the night I'll be able to get in my pilates workout.

( First Weigh-In )
I'll finish logging my food from yesterday now:
Snack:
* Nutty Bar (I know it wasn't the healthiest, but I couldn't resist. Oops.
Dinner:
* marinated boneless skinless chicken breasts
* one scoop mashed potatoes w/one pat of butter, salt, and pepper
* 1/2 ear of corn on the cob
Water intake yesterday wasn't 60 ozs but I believe I hit 50, so it's much better than the day before.
Exercise was non-existent, unless you count carrying Julia in her seat across the clinic/hospital parking lot twice. I did get winded both times, but it was probably only 10 minutes worth of "exercise". Better than nothing!

So far today I have eaten:
Breakfast:
* Frosted mini wheats (24, an exact serving size) w/skim milk
* unsweetened applesauce
Lunch:
* 15 cheese ravioli w/meat sauce
* spinach salad w/tomato and red wine vinaigrette dressing
* cherry pepsi
Water and exercise aren't looking too good right now. If Julia cooperates tonight maybe I'll be able to get 20 minutes of a workout dvd in. Off to drink some water now! =)

While it wasn't the best, I need to get back in the habit of journaling all my food and keeping myself honest. Here we go:
Breakfast:
* Two slices white bread, toasted, w/butter and fruit spred (no sugar added). I know white bread is horrible for you, but it's all I had in the house and it's cheaper than whole wheat and DH and I are on a strict budget until I go back to work.
Snack:
* Sun Chips (this was before I decided I was going to kick butt at this weight loss thing again.)
Lunch:
* Ramen Noodles
* Hot dog on white bread w/ketchup and mustart
* Peas
Dinner:
* Chicken patty on white bread w/lite mayo, lettuce, tomato
* Salad w/cheese, tomato, croutons, and lite ranch dressing
* Cantaloupe
I also had two oatmeal cookies.
Water Intake as of 7:30: 34 ozs
Exercise: 30 minute walk with DD in her stroller, although I couldn't walk as fast as I would have liked because the damn sidewalks are a mess.

My first post...
Aug. 7th, 2006 | 04:11 pm
Most of you know me. For those of you that don't I'm 26, and a new mother. Before I got pregnant I was extremely motivated to lose weight and get healthy. Then I got that positive HPT and while I had the best intentions those damn cravings got the best of me. Healthy eating was thrown to the wind, exercise because non-existant because I was just too damn tired. So the 18 pounds that I had lost pre-pregnancy came back, and it came back quick.
As of today - 5 weeks and 4 days post-partum I am 10 pounds above my pre-pregnancy weight. So, while my ultimate goal is to get to 120 or less, my short-term goal is 138 (pre-pregnancy).
I will take some before pictures, to track my progress.
One of the things I learned on my previous weight-loss quest was that if I try to do too much too quickly I will inevitably fail. So I am starting myself with two small goals for this week:
-Drink minimum 60 ozs of water per day
-Exercise minimum of 20 mins per day
I'll post every day with the previous days results. Oh, and my weigh-ins are normally Thursdays, but I joined a weight loss challenge in a community and weigh-ins are Wednesdays, so for the time being I'll weigh in on Wednesdays.
