Did anyone watch the new Biggest Loser last night? I thought it was a good one. I didn’t start watching it until late, so I fast forwarded through the workouts, but I like these contestants. There are a few of them who are my favorite so far. I thought of course, that Dan and Don, the twin cops were right up there, I think being there together, they will do great. And of course, I feel sorry for the guy who is 507 pounds. Did you catch the part that he’s already lost 150 pounds!
Did they show the other trainers? I kind of went through the middle part, but it didn’t seem like they showed who they were.
On the eating front, I had another great day. I am loving www.myfitnesspal.com. It takes just a minute to enter in what I am eating. Shelley said she used that tool while losing 100 pounds, so that sounds like the route I will take. I also decided to briskly walk home from work last night (in 20 degree weather!). I pretty much talked to my sister on the phone the whole way while she was driving home from work, so it didn’t seem that bad.
So for breakfast I had a deluxe quesadilla.
I had 2 low carb tortillas (I love Tumaro Wraps!), 1 egg, 2 egg white “fried” egg, 1 green onion chopped, 1 slice of Swiss cheese and 2.5 ounces of deli ham. It took me a long time to eat and kept me full until lunch.
And, I did something I haven’t done in a while. Fill up my big mug of water as soon as I get to work!
The other great thing about yesterday, is that a few co-workers and I brought back salad club! We took a break over the holidays, so it was nice to get together. Everyone brings a veggie or fruit to share with some greens and we lay it all out and everyone gets to build their own salad. We also keep a few bottles of low cal dressing to go with it.
The other downfall I usually have is eating late night. So I just told myself after dinner, this is the last thing for today until tomorrow. I felt like I wanted something, but I kept telling myself, “you’re not hungry!” It worked!
So here was my day:
Have a great day everyone!
I saw the last 10 minutes of the biggest loser, but I’ll have to catch up on it soon! I love the salad club idea….it sounds awesome!
I started laughing when I saw your water mug… I have the same one on my desk so I know how old it is! I do love it though since it holds 32 oz. of water. I try to get at least one a day down and if I’m being really good, I manage 1 1/2 or even 2.
They did not show the new trainers. I’m very intrigued and now I’m wondering if they are going to wait 4 weeks before they do so!
You are SOOO on track Jenn!!! YAY you!!!! I LOVE the salad club idea. Wish I could rally the troops here to do that… Have a great day!
Yay for the return of salad club!!! And I laughed that you and Biz both had breakfast quesadillas yesterday – sure can tell what you talked about on the phone! 😉
Happy New Year!Very insightful.I imagine that’s what I’ll be doing one day too.Fitness,cheap guide dvd, Transform your life
I have always loved your salad day at work, I need to start this!
I joined the Dr. Oz challenge (it’s on his website and has a lot of info and support) and one of the rules is to not eat 3 hrs. before bedtime! Sometimes it’s hard, but I agree – it is mental often. It helps me to brush my teeth when I feel like I want to eat. Then I just feel minty and also I’m lazy so I don’t want to eat something so I’d have to re-brush later. hehe 😛 It’s worked the few nights I’ve remembered to do it!
I had to wait until this morning to read your post because I didn’t watch TBL until last night! 🙂
I thought it was SO WEIRD that they didn’t show the new trainers. What’s up with that?
And salad day is a FANTASTIC idea!
I finally watched BL last night. They never did show the new trainers in detail, just a small glimpse. I was impressed with how well Don and Dan did, they kicked butt. Looks like another good season. And the best part, not one single cheeseball product placemant this episode!
