    My new trick for eating more fruits is to prepare a see-through container of cut red grapefruit and oranges and keep it in the fridge. Got the idea from those stunning displays at Whole Foods, which cost about $6.00 for a small container. This week I bought one huge grapefruit and 3 large oranges. Cut off all the skin. Slice each orange down the middle, then into slices running against the grain of the fruit. Store in a container, put it in the front of the refrigerator, and it looks good enough to eat!

    Today I am making a cabbage soup. so lots of veggies! I've never had it before, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it tastes okay. I am trying to drink more water, I know it will help me this week. It's just hard when I'm not working out as much, so I'm not as thirsty. I've been eating more of a variety because I tend to get bored easily.

    I'm going to do some pilates today and upper body work.
    I've been cleared to workout again, but I am going to start slowly. I am going to zumba tomorrow morning and then I won't workout again on Thursday night. Friday, no cardio, just strength. That's my end of the week plan. I want to take the good habits into the weekend. I hope the scale agrees with my efforts on Friday, it seems like I have been stuck at this weight for a while, even before my injury.

    So I gained quite a bit of wieght over the weekend I gave into the yummy food at work. I have lost all of it this week...again, but I really hate that when I do that. I would possibly be under 200 if I wasn't loosing the wieght I gained. I need to remeber that the next time I feel the need to overindulge. So more than likely no change for me this week. Hopefully with in the next two weeks I will be in Onderland! I
    I would really love some snack ideas if anyone has any!

    fruits- and-veggies
    breakfast- bananna
    lunch- salad
    snack- homemade veggie pattie (I MUST get the recipe to share with you all from my mom so yummy!)
    -orange
    dinner- will more than likely be a lean cuisine...does tomatoe sauce count?
    - bag of freslike steamfresh veggies

    HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY

    I'd love to try my first Challenge! I'm fairly new and have been wanting to join a challenge. Looks like folks are weighing in on Mondays, sounds good!

    SW: 141
    GW for April 1: 134
    Final GW: 120


    I'm not sure if that's realistic, but seems like a good goal! Now, time to hit the gym...

    Today's weight 177.2 !! Yippee!! I think those extra veggies have really been helping. I've been trying to drink mucho water too!! And more green tea, less diet pepsi. Also, I have tried to eat less bread and I try not to eat afte 9 or while watching tv! I was so happy that I was able to do zumba twice this week, even though I had to do the low impact modification version. I was just happy to be back in that environment. Now the key is for me not to blow it over the weekend.
    I'm glad that this is an April Fool's challenge because I go see my doc again on 4/4 and I would love for her to see a loss on the scale from me.
