NSVs - one inch off my waist this month and the size six dress I bought as my "goal" fit when it came!

Boiled chicken makes me sad. Switch it out for grilled chicken! I use Busha Browne Jerk Seasoning and it is ridiculously good. Especially on chicken thighs. Freaking insane. I put it boneless skinless chicken breasts too for salad toppings for work meals.

Two big NSV! I went shopping yesterday and have officially dropped a dress size. Today I had my first consult with a personal trainer and held a plank for 90 seconds. No way I could have done that 6 weeks ago!

I am 4 pounds lighter than I was yesterday. Which is 3 pounds heavier than I was last week. Which means...maybe I was constipated? :o Scales vary from one to another and our weight will vary from day to day. Just be consistent and it'll be okay.

Motivation is my problem, too. I do well for a month or two then stop caring as much. Having a strategy to establish healthy habits has been very helpful for me. Things that have helped: -I have to walk to work everyday because I didn't buy a parking pass. It's a $20 ticket if I am lazy. -I prepaid for a class but was very…

Bolognese risotto with a side of asparagus and a glass of white wine. Jerked chicken, I ate two.

Sausage and bean soup. I use chicken sausage, spinach and white beans. If I don't have white beans, I use garbanzo. I'll add mushrooms, shredded chicken, turkey meatballs, whatever I have around. If you use good quality parmesan shavings on top you can skip the parmesan rind. It adds so much more flavor if you have one…

I'm going to be taking some time off - shin splints have been too painful to handle. I will finish this!

Zumba was a mistake. Shins are killing me! But I did Jillian with modifications and 35 on the elliptical. I'll need to make up for lack of intensity with my diet.
