This past week was a lesson. After gaining weight as a newly turned vegetarian, I found out that I had to put on the brakes with how I was eating. I would go places (like taco john's for example) JUST to test myself to see what I could order without getting meat. I had some super nachos (minus ground beef) and potato oles. Yummy, but uh, NOT HEALTHY! Then after a day with Shane over the weekend eating everything from cookies/chip-n-dip/french toast/pancakes, I told myself STOP!!!!!! I didn't need to eat all this unhealthy food JUST because it was MEAT-FREE! lol. You'd think that was obvious, but that's how my brain tricked me into thinking it was "ok." Now, I'm 2 days back into eating healthy. Did great yesterday and today. Hit the gym again and ate smart. OH! Here's a great coupon for you all! (I've become a coupon freak lately...) LiveActive which has cheese/cereal and stuff like that has a coupon on their website (don't know how long they are promoting this) but it's for $3.00 off on a box of the brand new cereal. The box sells for $3.17 at my commissary, so I printed off like 3 of these coupons and have some boxes in my pantry. That's some cheap cereal!! Plus, fiberone also has a coupon out for their yogurt. It's for $1.25 off. At my commissary the yogurt is $1.75, so it only ends up costing me fifty cents. NOT BAD!!! lol. And...they are lower in calorie than alot of other yogurts out there. So, that's just a heads up for all you people looking for a good deal! :) Okay, well, I'm back on track, so that's good. I'm not in a hurry because I am in a *happy* weight place right now. Anything in the 130s I feel good about, when I get lower and lower I'll just start feeling greater and greater....but I'm not in a crazy rush. Okay. Love you all, and hope you had a good weekend. :) ash
weight: 139.6 (it went back up to 143 this weekend, but immediately went down after I did well yesterday and today. thank goodness!! lol)
lbs left to mini-goal: 4.6
time left to mini-goal: 4 days. Uh, that's NOT going to happen. So, I'll extend it to when my sister is celebrating her b-day and having a party. June 9th. Time remaining now? Exactly 3 weeks. :)
