Day 10
Did a lot of running around this morning so I missed breakfast, didnt get to eat lunch until almost 2 so I was blahhhhhhhhhhh. Had a whole wrap instead of a half with egg salad, sprouts and olives and some sweet tea. Dinner we had pot roast, rice and peas. I'm under by 267 right now. May have a snack soon so I'm not under by too much. Will probably do a mid week weigh in tomorrow to see where I am at :)

Day 8 & Day 9
Did awesome both days!! Weighed in today, down 2.8 pounds!!! Been sticking to coffee and light yogurt for breakfast, added in a corn toaster cake. For lunch I've been doing wraps with tuna usually, added in some alfalfa sprouts and pickles. Sticking to single portions at dinner time :) Stayed under my calories yesterday by close to 200, just wasnt hungry enough to get those last 200 calories in. Today I am only under by 88, had a snack and coffee this evening which brought it up so I'm not so far under. Trying to think of some new lunch ideas. May try egg salad with olives :)

Day 7
Did awesome today!! Stayed under my calorie goal by 222 :) My app yelled at me but I figure since I went over a couple days it was better to not eat anything else.
Breakfast
Coffee with creamer & sugar

Dannon Light & Fit Yogurt
Lunch
Half of a wrap with tuna, mayo & pickles
1/2 cup cottage cheese
Snack
Banana
Dinner
Serving of kielbasa in bbq sauce over rice
Snack
Corn Toaster Cake
Did some cleaning today and burned some calories, but even without that I still would have been under. Yay!! Hoping for just as good of a day tomorrow. I have my breakfast & lunches planned out, bought some alfalfa sprouts to add to my sandwiches or wraps and salads.
Day 6
I started off the day by not eating breakfast which was a huge mistake. We went grocery shopping and then stopped for lunch at Burger King (ugh) So of course I went over my limit but only by about 160. The walking around while grocery shopping burned some calories which helped. Weight has gone down about .6 of a pound. Doing my official weigh in on Monday. Hopefully I've gone down at least a pound. 16 weeks to get down to 200 pounds. Planning to order my wedding dress at the end of April!!!

Day 4
Didnt do too bad, went over my 1200 calorie limit by 111. Started using myfitnesspal.com which has been a great resource. If I keep within my limit I will be down to 215 in 5 weeks according to it :) I need to somehow figure out how to add some exercise until I am able to join the gym....need ideas!! Will post later with my results from today :)

Day 2
Day 2 and 3 didnt go as well. We have not gone shopping yet so I'm stuck eating everything we already have and its not all that healthy. Plus I'm stressed right now. *sigh* I'm still sticking to drinking water though, had about half a soda yesterday only because we were on the road from noon until 930 pm and needed the caffeine. Hoping the rest of the week goes better. I need a plan of attack or something. Maybe planning out my breakfast & lunch will make it easier...I already menu plan for dinner so maybe I should look for some healthy alternatives for breakfast & lunch and plan out a meal plan for myself?
