10 POUND CHALLENGE (March 1st) GOALS

  • This gives me a good idea. I'd like to replace my nightly cup of swiss miss w/ marshmallows with a glass of wine.

    You see, you're supposed to use 1/4 cup of cocoa mix, which is 150 calories. Combine that with marshmallows and I'm looking at 200 calories. However, I use only 1 tbs of mix instead, and...it tastes like butt. I'm pretty much in it for the marshmallows at this point.

    So I figure, after a glass of good red wine, I'll likely forget about those pesky marshmallows. =D

    Ha! I love wine, but after one glass, I usually have another and then the marshmallows would be toast:blushing: So, I like the goals of 1) burning 3500 cal by next wed and 2) limiting the cals i consume from wine! I'm going to borrow those.

    Missed the first few threads, but my SW for this challenge is 136 (4 lbs lost) and my name's leanne:flowerforyou:

  • Yeah! Good job! I just sip throughout the day and it doesn't add up to much Luckily, I am not into pop or juice so thats good but I just need to make more of a conscious effort.

    Right now I'm into the Cabernets. particulary blends. Like 50% Cab 50% Merlot. So I guess I'm a red wine girl.

    Today did a spinning class which kicked my *kitten*!!! Feel sore but very good about myself. Three day ski weekend coming up, great chance to burn those cals.
