I think a new light has finally clicked in my head. I had to wait until my kids were in bed before I could exercise cause my wii board was out of batteries and I had to wait for the batteries to charge... *note to self, don't let all the batteries die at once. :-p* Anyway, I know I could have done other activities, but I really wanted to complete my week of doing the wii, so I waited. Every little bit I kept checking my charger to see if they were finished... nope, not yet...nope, not yet...nope not yet. It was driving me nuts! Finally around 7pm the charging light turned off... YAY! but of course my kids wanted to play, dang it! LOL. Plus it was very close to their bedtime, so again, I waited. But I did get my workout in even though my body was saying, "nope, not gonna do it. I'm tired and I want to go to bed." I'm very pleased. I did 35 minutes with a calorie burn of 222. How's that for a round number? LOL. I do play to do at least 10 more minutes before bed, but I figure even if I don't, I'm ok with this type of calorie burn.
OH! Best thing ever, remember how I was worried that I was going to see a gain on the scale this morning after eating that yummy but high calorie/high point cake yesterday? Well, the good news is it didn't have a negative effect on me. :) I lost .4 ounces. Many people think .4 isn't a lot but every little bit helps and I will gladly take a .4ounce loss over a .4 gain. Hmmm, I just realized something, it's not .4ounces, it's .4 lbs. LOL. Oh well. That is my crowing glory today. On to tomorrow.
Weight: 242.5lbs, total loss 7.7lbs
Breakfast was the same, eggs and waffles - 9 points
For lunch I decided to mix it up a bit. I decided I just couldn't stomach another chicken sandwich. I think I ruined it for myself yesterday with all that extra sweetness, so today I went for a more savory type dish, grilled cheese with 1 slice of sargento colby jack cheese on Sara Lee 45 cal bread. I also cut up 1 cucumber and a couple carrots and had 1 tbsp of ranch to dip them in. It was a pretty good lunch but I should have added in a couple pieces of turkey or ham to my meal for some protein. It didn't give me the "full" signal even after drinking my 24oz of water and waiting 20 or so minutes. I still felt hungry, so what'd I do to fix it? Had a weight watcher's sundae cone for 2 pts. :) That did it. LOL. Total points for lunch and my snack was 10 pts.
Dinner was Tacos and a side salad for 10 pts. That left me with a total of 7 pts that I needed to fill, so for my evening snack I had 1 cup of 2% cottage cheese w/ 1 dole peaches cup - 7 pts. I would have been plenty happy to not have had the cottage cheese and peaches but I felt it was important to use up my points.
Exercise: 35 minutes wii fit plus including running, boxing, yoga, balance, strength (lunges YUCK!). The high light for me though was to be able to pass the advanced level on the bubble game and to also complete the add to 15 game also on advanced. YAY! Both of these I've worked for quite some time to figure out how to do it and finally did. SO AWESOME! lol. The little joys I find in life. HAHA.
Ok, Now it's off to dream land. gotta be up @ 6:30 to get the boy off to school. night!
