So I'm only half way through my week, and I feel healthier already! Way more so than last week! I tried a NEW SANDWICH (1 PT!) today. It was pretty yummy. Not TOO filling though. I should have had more veggies on it. Start with 1 thin sandwich round (top and bottom) - 1 pt, 2 slices tomatoe (more if you want) - 0 pt, 4 slices cucumber - 0 pt, and 1 tpsp fat free italian dressing - 0 pt, lightly salted/peppered. THATS IT! It was so tastey! I should have added more vegies. I think tomorrow I will add bell pepper and pickle...plus more tomatoes. I will probably go without the dressing too. I didn't like the tangy combo with the sweet bread.
I am SOOO excited bout Monday's weigh-in. I went on a short walk yesterday (10 minutes). No, its not long, but thats ok...I got to start somewhere. When I got home and for the rest of the night, I had so much more energy to play with Eden. No walking today. It is pouring down rain outside. I am definately looking forward to the energy I will have once I get ALL my weight off. I can already tell a difference. (of course the fact that Eden FINALLY sleeps through the night helps too)

ReplyDeleteand thank you...i wanted something unique. of course ever since we chose that name, EVERY where i go someone says "oh i know an eden too"
I bought some of those sandwich thins today, I am going to try your 1pt sandwich idea.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 2pound loss!
I'm also trying to lose weight and I have been for a very long time - but I think I've finally found the way. It doesn't involve giving money to giant companies like Weight Watchers or Nutri System anymore either. You just have to eat the right food and stop eating the wrong food. Please stop by my very new blog (Fruits and Veggies Diet) and see if there are any recipes that interest you.
ReplyDeleteAlso if you like to walk for exercise - I do too - you should try Leslie Sansone's "Walk Away the Pounds" videos/DVDs. They are great and it doesn't matter if it's raining, snowing, or 100 degrees in the shade out. Good luck on your weight loss.
