    Thursday's Check in

    Food:
    Breakfast - Sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich (no bread) with avocado
    Lunch - Spinach salad my boyfriend made me (Actually that's also what I had yesterday. I made a mistake!)
    Dinner - Here's where I was bad. My boyfriend had hannadford pizza made when I got home. I had some of that and some cheesy garlic bread that he made too. So good, but I'm sure I went waaay over my carbs because of that.

    Water: 4 refills of the water bottle

    Exercise: 30 minute circuit, focused on arms.

    Soda: Only one

    Strong - Thanks! I'm actually thinking that I'll start doing that. I really like the 20 ounce as it fills me up more and makes me fuller, but you're right that I should probably switch to the smaller size.

    All of my focus and energy is going into school right now. I have lab practicums on Monday and Tuesday, then I take the state exam on Wednesday, and I have two final exams on Thursday. So no going to the gym, or having any kind of life for that matter, till I'm done with all of that. I'm so nervous and to top it all off I got sick and I NEVER get sick so why now of all times? :(

    BEST OF LUCK!!! Just keep calm and study on. I'm sure you'll do well. :)

    ...
    And some how my thursday check in didn't post... So Here's Thursday's for me!
    Food - 1 egg, 1 bacon (breakfast), potato ham casserole (lunch) and chicken wings with potato wedges (dinner)

    Exercise - Full shift again so only stairs and moving at work. My calves are killing me with the boots.

    Water - 60oz! However I drank 40 of those in the last 2 hours of shift... Not so great then.

    My challenge to myself was to fill up my water bottle 3 times during work (=60oz) and I did, but just barely!

    My Friday check in:

    Food:
    Breakfast - Usually I only have my coffee with creamer since it is 60 calories and tends to fill me.
    Lunch - Baby Spinach with Broccoli and Carrots. A tablespoon of fat-free Italian dressing.
    Dinner - Going out tonight so eating at a friends house, we will have hamburgers. But I am taking a chicken dip with fat free crackers that will be much healthier for me.

    Water: My goal is 4-6 cups of water. Lately I have been drinking about four cups.

    Exercise: 30 minute workout, if there is time. Fridays a lot of times are my off days. But fiancee is trying to help me reach my goal of losing 7-10 pounds by Veteran's day so I can fit into my dress blues, so I probably won't be taking the day off.

    Soda: Just one a day. I can usually stick to this except when I go to my family's or my fiancees' family. It seems like that's all we drink there.

    Goal this week: Stick to my workouts. I usually walk during my lunch and then eat my salad while my students are working. I also want to keep trying to do the elliptical during my planning time. Plus whatever my fiancee has me doing to tone my body and lose more weight. My other main goal is to try and stay away from chocolate. I feel like I am addicted and am constantly binging on it.

    Thankful: I am thankful that my fiancee has decided to start helping me in my weight loss journey, instead of letting me give up.

    This Weekend's Theme: (*) Just try to be healthy!

    What do I mean?
    Care more about nutrition than calorie count or social norms (go for full calorie plain yogurt and mix your own fruit and whole grains in, make homemade dishes from scratch to enjoy fresh foods over canned or boxed)

    Move, be active, and have fun. (Take a walk with the SO or play with the kids. Studying all day? (Mamamegeno) Walk around the house as part of breaks, movement is proven to help the brain too! Else find a corn maze, pumpkin patch, apple orchard, park - Just have fun moving)

    Don't look at the scale this weekend, pay attention to how you feel mentality and physically.

    Be conscious of what you are doing and eating. Go for happy and healthy, even if its just in little ways. It's the weekend, the hardest time for most, so why not make it fun?
