b: 2 eggs(scrambled eggs) with chill powder and REAL full fat swiss cheese (these took alot of points up) 2 slices of weightwatchers bread

L: large smoothie: mixed frozen fruit and skim milk with splenda and a bowl of goatscheese yogurt mixed with honey, granola and a banana

"I'll follow your lead"

Do you have a little girl or boy (for that matter) that looks up to you? as a mentor?

Let me tell you... I have about..20..give or take.
I work at a community centre and I am involved in various programs with all ages...from birth to 16. Next Friday I will be help leading the dove campaign for True beauty self esteem girls night, and it reallly got me thinking...I need to be more positive about my own body image. These girls are looking up to me...and I can't even imagine what goes through their head on a daily basis about their own self image. So that is what I am going to strive for...to be a good role model for those who look up to me!!

WEIGH IN FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This day better be over.

I hate Mondays!!!!!!

I woke up with that mentality :

I had work from 11:30 to 6:45...which included family playgroup, afterschool program and teaching a tap class..

My tap class is awesome..I have a little 4 year old who is amazing!! It blows me away how talented she is :)

The family playgroup mothers put on a potluck ... It could have been bad for me...but I only had a few healthy choices (and ended up being my lunch so that was good).

With that being said, I think i ate a little more then i would have liked too..but oh well, such is life.

Menu for today ended up being:

B: half cup of mixed fruit with a breakfast egg and veggie wrap.

S: bag of smart pop (small)

L: half a cup of tuna pasta salad with a slice of red pepper/cream cheese ontop

D: cup of chicken/veggie stir fry and sweet potato fries

s: half a cup of sugerless icecream.

I also walked to work today...lead a tap class and was on my feet most of the day. I WILL go on the treadmill tomorrow and to curves!! So that is good!

I went on a little grocery adventure with my mom tonight..and I discovered stuffed olives..green olives stuffed with light blue cheese...anyone ever had these?? wow..I love olives! lol

Also ... does anyone have a good recipie for light tuna pasta salad? I bought black olives to put in it and low fat/light mayo with light chunky tuna and whole wheat pasta...just need to put it all together i guess!

Ok I guess that is all...

I miss my boyfriend guys... :( I hate long distance relationships!

Is tomorrow really a new day...

Today has been ok. I didn`t over-eat today...that makes it...a good day.
My meal plan for today was not planned out, but it was ok.

Lunch: Mini bag of smart pop popcorn.
Snack: Mini cube of cheese
Dinner: Homemade sweet potatoe fries and a stirfry with lots of veggies in it..
Lots of water...

My goals for this week, besides stop feeling like a lazy lump...are quite simple.

1. Clean room: I really find if my surroundings are in order, my life follows suit. If I feel like a slob then I`m going to start eating like a slob... it makes sense to me.

2. Get in 5 days a week of cardio. I don`t care what this cardio may be..30 minutes each time, treadmill...walking outside, jogging on the spot! Whatever..I have to do it!

3. Drink more water : Improves skin...aids in weight loss.

4. Lose 2 pounds for next weight in.

5. Smile more.

So this seems pretty simple right....right. (In my head it seems simple, here is hoping it all works out as planned)

I know alot of WW gals will be following this, and I`m glad. I need to be held accountable for my actions.
