Month 4 Check In

Hello and welcome to the Month 4 review! Despite my near total silence on this blog I have not been doing all that badly. I've just been tired at night and not had the energy to post. I promise to make it up to all of you my faithful readers. So how did it go?

Food:
I cooked a bit more than I have been up til now. This has been good for the diet I think.


Exercise:
I was averaging 2 times a week but I'm still going and trying for better. I did not get in to the gym everyday like I wanted at the end of last month.

Self-Denial:
Still going strong on the no Ramen no Booze.

Weigh In:
194! I've lost all the weight I gained in March and one pound more.

Total weight loss in 4 months….13lbs! Only 7 pounds until I can drink again! I'm going to shoot for the rest of this 7 pounds by Cinco de Mayo. I really want a Margarita.

Plan:

Cooking every Monday and Thursdays if I can afford to.

Go to the Farmer's Market every Saturday now that it is open. This works towards 2 goals: I get more exercise and I get more fresh veggies for food.

Drag my ass to the gym even if i don't feel like I have the time. 5 times a week should be reasonable.

Get a job (Last month I lost my job at the University so I am going to have even less money this month to work with for food but hey I will find a way. I always do.

Today's food log:

Breakfast: 2 Pieces of Breakfast Pizza (Glass Nickel) and a Red Bull

Lunch: A left-over Orange Chicken from Asian Kitchen (normally a really good cheap Eat but the Orange Chicken is not good, don't order it. Get the Tso's Chicken if you want a spicy breaded chicken dish)

Dinner: More left over Orange Chicken (there is at least 1 more meal in the dinner I got possible 2 more) and a Red Bull and half of a Baby Cake from Sentry. (I love those cakes they are so cute and small. ~I was feeling stressed out and I bought it to feel better. I'm not going to claim that I don't stress eat like so many women out there. but I try to limit my stress eating to only a handful of items and only a couple times a month.)

Gym: Supreme 60 minutes of Cardio on the elliptical and arm weights
