Day 147 (Tuesday 3/31)

<p>Happy last day of March everyone!!</p> <p>I hit the gym first this morning and got in <strong>36 minutes</strong> on the <strong>cross ramp</strong> while reading my recent book, “Marley & Me”. It’s a fun read. I want to get it finished soon so DH & I can go rent the movie. You know I think I forgot to tell you guys….I read three books over spring break and started this one! So relaxing!</p> <p>Breakfast this morning was <strong>oatmeal with blueberries</strong> and a <strong>sliced apple</strong> for <strong>3 points</strong>. I forgot to mention my sister told me that frozen blueberries were cheaper than fresh and the warm oatmeal “defrosts” them right away! They don’t have near the “tartness” that fresh ones do…but still pretty good! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0TCOAj3RqkgOvaBL455HOy3TG9CcjW-Fhe6_K7QBhycaPBBIWxn6j9LPRV9Ff4aSwiOb0T0rl3gxmuRam3G7BlUsM2gDqWLuB4_c4xnr0VbraHjAl633wbWzVRMQvhYz5zEO6wV8MVM3H/s1600-h/DSC02204%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02204" border="0" height="345" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ7lq5YihmlzO_bblR7fYLpaCf6p5VMXre-b6ffWIyqhEvqjNLyN8bi8pz2p__cmo3eH9pGFMVaMhhwW6guS85yctStdj6IpJCBGXCg3znta32jvrv_KMeUXklr4SM_xl21tz7DR6w2eGs/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC02204" width="454" /></a> </p> <p><font color="#000000">I wanted to keep lunch light today. Even though it was light “points wise” it was quite filling. I had <strong>1 sliced cucumber w/ff ranch</strong>, <strong>1 kiwi</strong>, and <strong>1 c cantaloupe</strong> for <strong>3 points</strong>. </font><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzvDzMbaNlFzxWZ7Y1DopON5PNgohAYvUUSGIDeLC9vJDmbQcrrsX_-KjaskPaBF3OpI3X27v-85LL95RAv7V6oiwK4g5Itz1un0Yb9FJ5XhNgE-dK-NADK6IvozfbolgLvn-gIBTpDACY/s1600-h/DSC02205%5B4%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02205" border="0" height="340" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy65WeslpGGjfucjZpX9j9b57GrGZ7PdEMtY6wMKYdAPgB6F8No77kT4qjCNsbiC9mwfniiMZTDDcpoW27CbeoDNzfOErLqC5_B132jzqVcblOilGT_8rOTwbZq4KkRvzMmFwOoHENSKp4/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC02205" width="447" /></a></p> <p>So if you read my Monday post…you know that I was all nervous about my weigh in. I hate that I let it get to me so much. Like <a href="http://tippytoediet.com/">Cammy</a> commented “it is what it is”. I want to try to work on this and not let myself stress over it so much. Well I took off work a couple hours early to get in another work out. So I hit the gym and got in a <strong>30 minute run/walk</strong>, <strong>35 minutes</strong> on the <strong>bike</strong>, <strong>15 minute cool down walk @ an incline</strong>, and <strong>10 minutes</strong> of <strong>abs</strong>. I felt SO good when I left the gym and not worried about the wi at all. </p> <p>So headed over to WW, jumped on the scale, and it said 162.4. Obviously a gain from what the WW scale said last week in FL (2lbs). I talked to my leader about it and she pointed out that the wi that I went to in FL was right away in the morning, I didn’t eat anything before it and I got in a 45 min run/walk in beforehand. It is less than my wi two weeks ago and also taking into account TOM should be here tomorrow and I had a few splurges since I’ve been home. So in Cammy’s words…it is what it is and I am ready to face the week ahead! Thanks Cammy!</p> <p>Got home and I was HUNGRY! Only 6 points and all that working out I needed some FUEL! I grabbed a <strong>fiber one bar</strong> for <strong>2 points</strong> while getting my supper ready.  </p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgurbD_iMFuH_9zYpe_vbK1WzzVo-vzMcjMl_pJhw330r7slVMsRv-5d2HjDL4TR6usBKIpMfujrOCsG9GX59c0vaAkJyPYr9MNUlp9Do0GBaq0UfpXPtOf7iSo85JiOEIByu6Fr5PmGhcV/s1600-h/DSC02206%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02206" border="0" height="338" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWPYxszlwCnfuv81LfSZEZ3VqPLmbnMlTtbq5bxZ9qJ47WV77_NizUchWEq_VBFuM-_NVXxOEaY5Djg18IdX4Uj52M-tMl3ZyPzn3lUJMLNQgU-QD7pceYZOB4bDcYPNDRXxJ_MCl0dtWc/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC02206" width="442" /></a></p> <p>I turned the oven on the minute I walked in the door. It is SUPER cold out here in IA today…and it’s sleeting out. :( So I had some warm comfort carbs for supper! I made a <strong>ham & pineapple english muffin pizzas</strong> and <strong>sweet potato fries</strong> for <strong>9 points</strong>. Wow did this FILL me up!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdpiK6MDXDcmZ7eZ3Jl4CTcNT-bgW1yxzYrpXX3uPYEECa-4DocbfZV_ubvF8q6N2Al7IaOHVsRd4yDN1yQ1BwhAqm3ur1CA69KrsbU9FupV9YUVpzE6A2coejtWm8CNT3FjNKXx8UzxAc/s1600-h/DSC02207%5B4%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC02207" border="0" height="334" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-EfTulD3CU_rwQ0FCSS8kwcV9DIyPQz7UXerl-2uDRI6SbNkh4CToUyDpXsEw_hD1lZ3JZzYvBMgs_0FGaV3OyasFWs-iSFxHTGjCZ-cnfp9z5zndiZ2eO3AaUMbR1e4z_tEklVaG-vJU/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC02207" width="436" /></a></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>Now I watching BL…I can’t believe Nicole gained 5lbs!!
