ok, i think i'm safe... it's 11am here & LSU hasn't posted...
b: puffed kashi, soy milk
s: bagel & cream cheese
l: 1/4 cantaloupe, ham sandwich on ww
s: yogurt
d: turkey burger, steamed carrots
w: couldn't do my walk this AM cuz i have some sort of cut on my ankle right where my shoe rubs & it was uber-painful so i had to turn back. i'll do my yoga video after work tho & buy some bandaids so i can walk tomorrow
crystal, how early do you get up that you walk before work? and how do you motivate yourself to do that?
b: poptarts. at least they were reduced fat (8 points)
l: lean cuisine (forgot to look- probably a 6 pointer)
d: I'll probably wait til after class and have some toast with PB, cause that's what I really want. and a banana, to add some healthy-ness.
e: no time. I can NOT wait until class is finished. 4 more weeks, then a month off, then 14 weeks and I graduate! (not that I'm counting or anything...)
Hmm, now that I don't really have any kind of eating schedule I'm finding it more difficult to control/monitor what I eat. I'm not sure if I'm being a better eater or a worse one . . .
B: Oatmeal, OJ
L: WW pasta w/ pesto, cheese stick, diet coke
S: Yogurt, carrots, apple
D: Burger (in my defense, it's 5 cent burger night at a place right down the street). Yes, and probably fries with that
E: Already done arms today and will do some abs and butt this afternoon. Yay for the stairs in my apartment! Built in exercise!
Worse. Defintely worse.

crystal, how early do you get up that you walk before work? and how do you motivate yourself to do that?
i get up at 6am and i don't have to be at work til 9am (but usually get in before 8:30) i know it seems crazy but i think it's the fact that i'm getting older & actually enjoy getting up early & having the whole day ahead of me. long gone are the days of sleeping past noon on weekends, now that just makes me feel lazy. also, i've made a decision to get in the best shape of my life since i'm still young & there's really no excuses, and in order to do that i need to walk for an hour every weekday & the best time for that, i've found, is before work. after doing it a couple days i got used to it & now i go to bed promptly at 10 & wake up easier than when i used to go to bed at 11 & get up at 7:45am. i think the key is consistency, on weekends i try not to sleep past 8am & if i wake up before that i will get up.
Good Evening! Yeah you beat me today Crystal! I have blown the diet today but there is always tomorrow!
B: honey bunches of oats with strawberries & 1/2 c skim milk (3 pts)
S: baby nectarine (.5 pts)
L: Went out to eat with my mom and her friend for a b-day celebration (the friend) and had Whole Wheat Pasta with shrimp and bread w/EVOO and parm. cheese dip not even counting the pts
S: Starbucks Frappucino coffee drink- the bottled kind (peppermint mocha) so yummy but 4 freaking points!
D: If I get hungry since I'm stuffed right now I'm eating either a soy corn dog or a pear/apple
S: Just finished a Dreyer's whole fruit strawberry popsicle. And I will probably have Reeses peanut butter cup before or after dinner.
D: This is yet to be determined since I need to go to the grocery store bad! (it's also the reason I had to eat out for my lunch, since I had nothing at home!)
