Fresh start

I guess I should start off with "hi" and "welcome" to my new blog. I figure it's time to keep my life, weight loss, struggles, acheivements all in one place. I'm sure later on it would be nice to see all that I've done, surpassed, etc. So, here we go....

So today was day 1 on the low carb... didn't do too bad and very pleased. I just hope I can continue this and get some weight off... I was doing great before I got pg w/ Izzy, but that's ok, she was well worth it. :)

Today I had:

Breakfast:
20 oz water
1 sau, egg & cheese taquito (no tortilla)
1 bacon, egg & cheese taquito (no tortilla)
Added 2 packets of salsa

Lunch:
Grilled ckn club salad (no tomatoes, crutons)
1 packet of Bacon Ranch
1/2 liter Diet Dr Pepper

Dinner:
Baked ckn
Broccoli w/ cheese sauce that hubby made
1 can Diet Dr P

Snack:
sugar free popsicles

Total water:
20 oz

Workout:
None, I planned to do 3 mile WWL (Walking w/ Leslie) but that didn't happen b/c I was too busy at work and got home and was overtaken w/ things to get done... tomorrow, I will attempt my 3 mile walk. :)


I say that I did pretty well, I need to increase my water intake, but tomorrow is a new day and I'll be sure to keep a jug of water handy. :) So all in all, day went pretty well. I just cooked my bkfast tonight for in the AM & made some boiled eggs if I feel hungry during the day to take with me. I also made some Strawberry Banana jello and I'll have that for dessert tomorrow w/ a little whip cream. Yum! :)

Starting weight: 306 (cringe, I was 250 pre-pregnancy w/ Izzy) *sigh*
Goal weight: 170

So, starting out and we'll see how well I do ... :D'

Some great news... got my certificate in the mail today, I'm officially a GVN (Graduate Vocational Nurse), now just for my state boards (NCLEX) and I'll offically be an LVN. Wahoo, so exciting. It's been a long 18 mo and I'm so estatic and love my family for all the support they've given me during this time, not to mention my friends. :) So any and all prayers would be much appreciated. *hugs*

Ok, well I guess it's time to get off here and get to bed, it's after midnight and I can tell I'll be exhausted tomorrow and tomorrow is yet another long day. :)

G'nite friends.
