February 3, 2010 - Day 31

I so did NOT want to go to they gym today. I'm not sure why either. After I dropped off Riley at day care and trudged my way over (yes, I did go), I just kept thinking about how this was going to be torture. This trend continued while I was on the elliptical machine; I thought I was going to die. But, I got through it, thankfully. :)

For breakfast

1 high fiber banana nut muffin (170 calories; 3 points)

1 Light & Fit Strawberry yogurt (60 calories; 1 point)

1/2 cup of coffee w/vanilla creamer (35 calories; 1 point)

For lunch

1 Smart Ones Mac and Cheese (270 calories; 5 points)
* This wasn't bad. In fact I liked it better than the Lean Cuisine variety (which is surprising since LC is made by the Stouffer's co. which makes an AWESOME frozen, non-healthy m&c).

Water

For dinner

1 ground turkey enchilada (345 calories; 7 points)
* Wow! This was REALLY good. I can't believe I've never had enchiladas before, let alone made them. This is especially surprising since I lived in Tucson for 10 years, but I digress. Cam's been wanting them and since I had no other ideas for today, I figured why not? Man. I totally could have gorged myself on these. However, I was good and just limited myself to one.

1 serving of sauteed yellow and red bell peppers (30 calories; 0 points)

Water

Snacks

1 square of (78% cacao) dark chocolate (57 calories; 1 point)

1 serving of cheerios w/skim milk (140 calories; 3 points)

Total Calories (roughly): 1127

Total WW Points: 21

Total "Flex Points" left for week: 33

Days left in flex points week (after today) : 5

Exercise

A little over 30 minutes on an elliptical machine

400 crunches - Nope, this isn't a typo. I just did 4 sets of 100 at different points throughout the day.

January 27, 2010 - Day 24

I had every intention of going to the gym today. Riley had a doctor's appt around 9:30, but I was going to drop her off at daycare after that and then head over. However, the doctor's appointment took like an hour and a half, and Riley was very upset at the end of it (she needed to take this medicine from a breathing machine for about 10 minutes which upset her GREATLY). So I took her home and we hung out for the day. We even got to go visit Cam and take him out to lunch after our story time at the library.

For breakfast

1 high-fiber muffin (130 calories; 2 points)

1/2 cup of coffee w/vanilla creamer (35 calories; 1 point)

For lunch

1/2 of a clementine (10 calories; 0 points)

1 bbq beef burrito (290 calories; 5 points)

Water

For dinner

2 tacos (350 calories; 7 points)
* I had a little dollup of sour cream and a bit of shredded cheese on each. Cam did a great job on getting whole wheat taco shells, which a bunch of fiber in each. Good stuff!

Water

Snacks

1 diet hot chocolate (25 calories; 0 points)

A handful of chips with a little bit of guacamole (150 calories; 3 points)
* These numbers are an estimate. I really didn't have much at all, especially the guacamole, but we did get them from Chipotle when Riley and I took cam for lunch. So I think these numbers are good estimates.

A handful of animal crackers (60 calories; 1 point)

A box of mini-smarties (50 calories; 1 point)

Total Calories (roughly): 1100

Total WW Points: 20

Flex points left: 34

Exercise
Nothing, except for playing outside with Riley.
