i was so tired yesterday though, and my poor feetsies were about to die!  grocery shopping for hours, standing in line, and then treadmill time.  then a shower and MORE shopping time!  i was soooo tired.  D:  today is going to be a packing day, just a few more days till i move in with chris!  i'm so excited!  :D

free cookie day!?

sorry i didn't blog yesterday!  busy busy busy!  i'm moving i less than a week, there's so much to do!  spent yesterday with my dude, had to run to the post office on bugglette's business, took a walk in the park (so tired of the treadmill, it was a nice change!), stopped by target to pick up a three barrel curling iron (also known to me as a crimper, only round) since i couldn't find one anywhere else and then lunch.

now, let me tell you a lunch story!

after target, chris was getting hungry.  he's not a breakfast person, so while i had eaten a meal already today he had eaten a fiber one bar.  so i can see how after all the walking (30 minutes in the park and then about 45 minutes in target) he was pretty rumbly.  so we decided on subway.  doesn't seem like a bad choice, really.

when we got in, chris covered up a sign with his arms and told me not to look.  when i finally got to see it, it was an ad for the new raspberry cheesecake cookie.  and i was like, 'i got this.  i don't need a cookie.'  didn't even want or crave a cookie.  got me a six inch sub and some soup, got to the register and guess what?

FREE COOKIE DAY.

thanks, universe.  D:<

i bet the lady was freaked out by use, i bet our eyes got all big at the thought of free cookie.  we took the cookies, chris was saving his (since he has plenty of points to have a cookie) but i was going to save mine for bug.  after eating my meal, i realized i couldn't ignore it's raspberry deliciousness anymore.  D:  

so because of that six point cookie, i used up all my points yesterday. still didn't go over, but had nothing left.  D:  and lunch wasn't very filling, so i stuffed all my points in my face for dinner and then had a massive tummy ache.  double D:.

so anyway, on to tracking.

breakfast:  

scrambled eggs with leftover pork chop thing:  6 pts

snack:

6 crackers with cream cheese:  4 pts

activity:

treadmill on incline, 30 minutes:  +4

lunch.

smart ones chicken alfredo:  7 pts

snack:

apple cinnamon straws:  3 pts

dinner:
hamburger with cheese:  8 points
tater tots (3 servings)  12 pts

snack:

a hungry day!

for reals!  i'm always starving after treadmill time!

lunch  (woke up at noon, so no breakfast):

digiorno single serve:  5 pts

serving potato straws:  3 pts

activity:

treadmill, 30 minutes on incline:  +4 pts

lunch 2:

2 buffalo chicken wraps:  8 pts

serving potato straws:  3 points

still feeling hungry though!!  i think i'll just finish off the buffalo chicken. . .

a crafty day!

sorry no post yesterday!  it's super sucks not having my own computer.  damn those internet viruses!  i'll spend most of my time later putting up new hair bows on bugglette's, there's like a million of them!  i guess i should be glad i have dad's laptop, or nothing would ever get updated, but still. . .

anyway, i won't track at you from yesterday, but i ended the day with about 6 pts to spare.  :D

breakfast:

smart ones breakfast scramble:  5 pts

activity:

treadmill on incline, 30 minutes:  +4 pts

a side note on the treadmill:  it's getting so much easier!  i actually look forward to it now, since it's just me and my music.  :D  i do need some new music though, for realsies.  i'll have to go through chris's iPod the next time i see him.

lunch:

buffalo chicken wrap:  4 pts

healthy choice red pepper alfredo thing (SOOPER GROSS):  7 pts

snack:
24 fat free jelly beans:  4 pts

dinner:
2 buffalo chicken wraps, serving refried beans:  13 pts

snack:
24 fat free jelly beans:  4 pts
fiber one bar:  3 pts

side note about the jelly beans:  mom always used to have a bunch of candy sitting out close to easter.  she replaced all that candy with a single bowl of fat free jelly beans, but it's still hard to ignore them!  and they're all these cute looking fat beans.  D:  they're 4 pts for 24 beans, i only like the blue ones, so hopefully once they're gone i'll ignore them!

random meal:
smart ones three cheese ziti:  8 pts

2 pts left!

love, tiffers.

more about our weigh-in.

none of us had a great weigh in yesterday.  mom was down 1 pound, mandy totally maintained and i gained a little less than half a pound.  here is what i think happened to us this week.

we felt awesome.  we felt we were doing totally great and that we deserved some reward.  our reward was eating a bunch of stuff we couldn't count.  not even really that we pigged out, but that we ate out and couldn't measure our portions and we went without finding out points before hand.  

i didn't want to know the points that me and chris were going to consume on our anniversary, because i knew they would be bad, but i didn't think they'd be bad enough to ruin my week like they did.  we all went out with chris' parents (it was the first time my family had met them) and even though we didn't eat a lot we had no idea of the values of what we were eating.  so even though it wasn't a lot of food, it may have been more fatty than we had thought.

the chinese buffet yesterday was just a bad idea.  i don't even like chinese food, so i won't be sad if we don't go again.

anyway, it's not failure it's feedback.  as long as we learned something from it we are better off than we were before!

love, tiffers.

weigh-in yesterday.

so had a sort of bad day yesterday.  i guess sort of a bad week.  went to weigh-in yesterday and gained .4.  which is less than half a pound.  i know it's because of our little celebration time, but i was on that treadmill so much i though i could prevent it.  sigh.

then yesterday for lunch somebody (i think it may have been mom, actually) decided on the chinese buffet.  now, i don't even like chinese food, so i didn't eat too much, but it's all so high in point!  mandy said her meal was probably about 50 points, the lo mein alone was like 14 (luckily had i had no noodle-y dishes).  i had lots of little bites of random meats and chickens and then about half a scoop of white rice.  hopefully not too bad, but just to be on the safe side i ate fruit the rest of the day.  then pretty much just crashed.

i did still treadmill, though, and i looked it up in the pocket book and i actually haven't been giving myself enough points for it, should be 4 instead of 2.

but today is a new day.  had some breakfast and off to treadmill here in a bit, then work at 5:30.

breakfast:

mcdonalds fruit and maple oatmeal:  7 pts
string cheese:  1 pts

activity:
treadmill on incline, 30 minutes:  +4 pts

(whole wheat tortillas, 2:  2 pts each, half cup chicken:  3 pts, buffalo sauce:  0 pts, 1/4 cup cheese: 2 pts)

serving of baked doritos:  4 pts
(a serving is actually only 3 pts, but i was down to the crumbly bits so i may have had more, thus the extra point.)

mandy didn't finish her delicious buffalo wrap, so i had it too:  5 pts

snack:
mcd's ice cream cone:  2 pts
fiber one bar:  3 pts

dinner:
meatless chicken patty with cheese raviolis and marinara:  11 pts
