    Hi everyone. So far I ate breakfast, or drank it. I made a smoothie, 1/2 cup of spinach, 3 strawberries, 2 kiwi, 1.5 cups of the mango/peach soy milk. It was filling. :) I have an appointment today but maybe I can get a nice run in or a long walk when I get home and zumba for sure. I will do more stuff too.

    Rock it lady!! That smoothie sound so good.. you ever added pure or raw fiber to your smoothies.. flax? especially with that appointment .. i know how that can be. lol... could run over and the fiber will help you stay full even longer! Sounds like you have an awesome day planned! Enjoy Zumba!

    I haven't thought of adding fiber, but I will do that. :) I have some flax seed. Thanks for the tip. The smoothie was good. I have found I do not like juicing beets, gross. They are ok in small amounts but you gotta watch that.

    true.. but the idea is to eat your protein FIRST and you will eat less carbs..

    I love this challenge and I love the daily support I get from My Coach,Mrsmofasa!!
    Im putting all my efforts to do better everyday and to have you all is a blessing!
    Before, I was weighing myself everyday and on Monday Morning my husband took
    The scale with him to his office and he will give it back to me tomorrow morning for
    The weigh in! It has been challenging to me, because I'm trying to break that habit
    and I'm trying not To focus only on the scale, specially not everyday!
    But, we got this & we are on the right path to achieve our goals!!
    I really appreciate your help & support!!

    Shout out to my girls from
    Motivational queens Team! Let's keep the great work!

    Hugs

    Ok, I gotta get this eating crap under control. I am weak. Either I over eat or I hardly eat and I know it is effecting my emotions. I need more protein. Idea's for healthy protein? We eat a lot of ground turkey in this house, but I have been doing some juicing this week and not getting enough. So thoughts? We also eat a lot of chicken. Do you think the fact htat I haven't had much meat this week has made me lack energy?

    Wishing everyone a successful weight in today.....hope you all didn't forget!!!

    Also just wanted to share because this week this article is so relevant to me....but I'm accepting that there are things that are just out of my control except how I respond to them....but this week was a success...I only got angry for about 20mins & decided to workout instead of eating out....the next morning I woke up feeling so good!!!


    Don't Focus on Your Stressors....Focus on How You Respond to Them!!!

    Women focus on the external stressors in their life when trying to find solutions to the impacts of stress. Women need to look at the “internal stressors,” such as how they react to and deal with stress, suggests Kathy Glover Scott, MSW, motivational speaker and author of The Successful Woman (Alternative Truths, 2003), because “stress-busting begins from within.” Actively creating a positive mindset will be the catalyst for de-stressing your body from the inside out: remind yourself that what happens around you may be out of your control, but how you feel about it and react to it is within your reach.

    Okay. So I'm feeling so uhhh I'm like foxy...I normally burn good burns and here it is the weigh-in and I'm not happy :( but it's hard with death of aunt, out of town, and race...my workout is being lathered. Today it's killing me, knowing its weigh-in day, to not go in gym and try to burn 1500 at least...but can't. Really trying to be obedient to my running trainer and I'm really trying hard to place in this race tomorrow and I want/need to run at least 9 minutes a mile so he said I got to preserve legs to be fresh tomorrow, which means rest day today....i feel like uhhh I need to workout ...oh, well, it's life....let's just all bow our head, pray and stretch hands I don't get kicked out first week...LOL!!! My hubby looking like babe is it that serious...Uhhhh YES he know i'm competitive what is his problem!!!!!! uhhhhhh :(

    Even thou my diet isn't always the best....I did take Nutrition Courses due to my medical training...try some of these items hun...


    Salmon 3 oz gives you about 16.9grams of protein/121 calories
    Lima Beans 1/2 cup 7.3grams of protein/108 calories
    Lamb Steak 1` portion 19.9grams of protein ( & I have eaten lamb girl its good if prepared properly)
    Crab meat, Tuna, dried fruits, soya beans....

    Just some things you probably already have all this stuff
