Happy Monday All! I was sooooo excited to sleep in this morning ~ after two weeks of early morning workouts, I earned that morning of not getting up to “feel the burn”. I have to admit though, my morning somehow seemed incomplete – like something was missing. I even decided to skip my Morning Burst (hot water plus lemon) to have some Decaf Cinnamon Vanilla Nut Coffee. You know what ~ It didn’t taste good! I wanted hot lemon water…..funny how we work, right?
I found the BIGGEST glass I could to make up a Morning Burst and have exactly what I was crazing ~ A Wafflewich!
MMMMMMM ~ How I’ve missed my wafflewich! Just look at how good it looks from the side
And up close and personal!
Two weeks is just too long to go without one of these fantastic sammies!
2 Kashi Strawberry Flax Waffles
1 BIG Tbsp Naturally More PB
1 Tbsp All Natural Apricot Preserves
1 small banana, sliced
All for 6 Weight Watchers Points and worth EVERY BITE! Ok, so I have to share with you what absolutely MADE my day today……aside from my Wafflewich.
My 14 day Bikini BootCamp Results!
Weight lost: 5.6 lbs!!!! How awesome is that?!
Inches lost all around (some areas got bigger – go biceps & calves, while others smaller) 2.75 inches lost!
Awesome! It made EVERY day totally worth it. I really think it helped me not to peak at the scale each day and let that dictate my mood. This was my mid-month check up and I like what I am seeing.
As I told you all last night I plan on keeping with several aspects of the program for the month and turning them into a lifestyle.
* I am allowing myself one “treat” meal tomorrow and making a healthy steak dinner tonight for The Husband (so he doesn’t disown me). Everything else in between will be BBC.
* I am modifying my eats to fall into their eating concepts/categories (light breakfast with fruit/veggies plus protein, salad type lunch, 1-2 light snacks, soup plus healthy carb, lean protein and healthy fat dinner with the occassional dessert.
* Workouts ~ I will continue working out 6 out of 7 days a week and plan on doing morning/afternoon workouts often.
I think that’s a good start ~ My next Weigh In point will be before our Vegas Trip, 06/25/09 and then a final Weigh In at the end of the month when we return.
Quick recap for yesterday:
Calories burned: 2,897
Steps taken: 13,645
Alright all ~ Today is a pretty busy day ~ such is life when the work week starts again ๐
