We had a bunch of friends over for pizza on Sunday - I knew that it was going to be calorific, so I managed to keep my day of eating tightly under control, and then over indulged at dinner. Which seems to be the theme of the weekend.
So yesterday was a big calorie day....yikes! I have some hard work to do this week coming.

Back at the weights!
Today I actually managed to get in some weight training. It wasn't much, but its more then not doing anything!
Work today was hell. Someone brought in a King Cake and well. Yep, I ate some. three effing slices. Gawds. Its that sugar crush. I knew better then to have a single slice... an hour later I had justified three. Keep working Tammy. Keep working.
I'm proud that I stayed in my calorie range today, I came home, walked, did a little workout, and ate a reasonable dinner. Even though my mind wanted to snack, I didn't let it. I keep saying, "my stomach isn't growling, so I can't be hungry".
After work I took the dog out for a walk, did about 15min worth - my hip is again, getting better, but I don't trust it and every time I have to get up and down the stairs I'm fearing the worst. Rawr. This thing is so frustrating.
I have also yelled at the Husbeast tonight, we are both in a foul mood, and its the little things that are getting under our skin. Taxes, work, housecleaning, food... of course, I'm mad that I'm not thin and perfect and this is "of course" his fault. Gawds, seriously, I must be getting close to my period, I am a GRUMPY BEAR!
Mostly I'm worried that I am not going to make my first goal... and that it will be because I ATE STUPID A$$ CAKE. WHY DID I DO THAT?!?!?!?!?!? I'm going to be super annoyed at myself tomorrow if I blew it on cake today.
anyway...onto more interesting things.
Weights: I only have one 25lb dumbbell. So all these are done 1 arm at a time, except as noted.
Bent over row (R/L): 10, 10, 10, 10
Military Press (R/L): 5, 6, 7, 5
2 arm upright front row: 8, 8, 8, 8

Yeah....my curls were pretty weak, but its a start!

That was followed with some (nasty) low fat ice cream with cherries, and a few pieces of very nice dark chocolate.

Note to self: THIS IS NOT A LICENSE TO EAT CRAP. Give it a rest for the remainder of the week.
Tomorrow I have to get back into lifting and running. Then I can really start to enjoy myself.

Meatless Monday Night Dinner!
Food for today was pretty great! Tonight, I got in a walk with the dog and Husbeast. I need to start up with the weights again. I'm slightly scared, considering what I did to my hip, but I think that at the end of this week I should make it a goal to get at least 1 workout in.
I need another good nights sleep, it's nice and chilly tonight, which means I get to snuggle up under the covers and put my icy fingers under the Husbeast to leech heat from him. Happy life!!! :D
I indulged this afternoon. There were home-made cookies put on my desk. I went and made my oatmeal and told myself that if I could eat all my oatmeal, and still desiring the cookie, that I could have a couple. Which was three.
Tonight's dinner was amazing. I actually didn't feel hungry for the rest of the night and the afternoon after my snacks. So I'm really pleased that the calorie count for today is down. I'm listening a little bit more to the body!!! Go Me!
Also, I'm REALLY happy about having a larger breakfast, I think that this is helping, so I'm going to keep it up. I was going to have another yogurt for dessert tonight, but I totally forgot about it!
Food:
bfast (520)
Egg cheese biscuit
Chiobani - Blood Orange - greek yogurt - 140
Coffee - 30
lunch (497)
Which Wich - Buffalo chicken! My fav (no cheese) - 497

Sunday foods
ug. best laid plans get shot to hell. Food was horrible, I stayed away from all the sodas, but the chips, sweets and crackers got me. Fug. The Husbeast and I did get in a very good brisk 3 mile walk with the dog after we got home and that really helped.
Breakfast was amazing. Orange Polentina.... YUM, we used zero fat yogurt instead of the cheese, and about a quarter of the honey it called for. Yummy and sweet enough.
So I'll just get to it. Food today:
bfast(525)
orange polentina - 300
coffee - 30
2 slices bread - 100
1T peanut butter - 95
snack (220)
16 wheat thins (reduced fat) - 130
1T low fat cream cheese - chive - 70
coffee - 20
lunch (848)
6oz chicken - 223
2oz stuffing - 320
1/2c mashed potato - 100
cucumber salad - 75
16 wheat thins - 130
snack (455)
1 med Cherry Tart - 300
1 lrg cake ball - 55
15 chips - 100

1 can Amy's tomato bisque - 218
1 slice bread - 50
1 Jenni-O spicy italian sausage - 160
3T mustard - 20
Total calories: 2,496
amazing what out of control, mindless eating can do. Sad, truly. I'm sorry Ponies. I'm going to do better this week!

Saturday Success!
Got up this morning to a hearty breakfast, did about an hour of weight lifting, had a good lunch at Specs, bought a valentines gift for the Husbeast, helped a friend make some "diaper cakes" for a baby shower that is coming up, got some great food at the market and came home and had almost the same dinner as last night, because it was so stink'n awesome. Watched some BL on netflix (Season of Sam), and am posting this up before reading in bed.
Awesome day.
Food:
bfast (590)
eggs - 155
1.5 jenni-o sweet italian turkey sausage - 240
green onion - 5
2 slices toast - 100
1T HP sauce - 60
coffee - 30
lunch (596)
1.5c coleslaw (vinegar kind) - 140
4 deviled egg halves - 256
2 sm bags of pop chips - 200
diet rootbeer - 0
snack
coffee - 30
snack 2
Chiobani lemon yogurt - 140
dinner (511)
1/2 spaghetti squash - 44
1.5 jenni-o spicy italian sausage - 240
onion - 12
pasta sauce - 70
2 slices bread - 100
1T icbinb - 45
dessert (300)
3/4c ice cream - 200
1/2c cherries (frozen) - 100
total calories - 2,167
So, I've been hitting the 1900 - 2300 calories range for this week. I certainly could have gone without the yogurt this afternoon, or the dessert tonight. I had forgotten about that yogurt actually, when I decided that I was going to have ice cream tonight. A good lesson to track in one place all my weekend food.
However, I am feeling good about this calorie range. I'm eating well - there was some "junk" in there, but pop chips and diet pop are a significant change in my dietary habits. I mean. I LOOKED at the calories on the bags of chips before deciding. Whoa. Who is this masked woman?
I did one of the quick online basal metabolic rate tests. I'm sure that this are not entirely accurate, but I do think that they are a pretty close range enough to be usable.
My daily calories burned are 2094. That is should I lay in bed and do nothing (might I remind you we live in a three story townhome, so I see a good amount of stairs in a day). So for now, I'm going to aim for good foods, and a calorie range of 1,900 - 2,300.
I'm going to be checking back in on this BMR every 10lbs lost, so that I can stay on top of the less calories that I need to haul my decreasing a$$ around each day!!
I'm excited for my Weigh-in tomorrow - my first "goal weight" weigh in is on Wednesday. I'm kinda pumped.... Icelandic Ponies here I come!!
And now... for my inspiration, I shall instate the PONY OF THE DAY.....todays icelandic pony is brought to you by this website.
adorable!

Back to Training!
Weights today!!!! I was joined by a girlfriend of mine as we went to a session on power/weightlifting today. I didn't know how I was going to hold up in the hip department, but it was excellent. Once I'm done here, it's going to get iced and stretched out again.
We were three from 11 - 1pm lifting with lots of other people, so it was low rep, high on speed and power. Great full body workout, and I'm tired! Lunch that was provided, it was low on nutrition and high on calories, but since we were working so hard I'm not going to be too concerned about it.
The Husbeast made an amazing breakfast for us. eggs cooked in tomatoes with toast. SO delish.
Tonight we have dinner out with friends for a birthday - we are going to go for sushi. My plan is to make sure to eat the leftovers from yesterday before we go, so that I'm slightly full, and then drink a LOT of water/tea to help keep me filled up while I'm there. But I'm looking forward to some spicy tuna, sashimi and edemame!
Food (so far):
bfast
1 lrg tomato - 33
1 egg - 78
.4 oz cheese - 36
2 slices toast - 100
1T icbinb - 45
1tsp peanut butter - 47
coffee - 30
snack
chocolate chip cookie lara bar - 230
lunch
3 med slices pepperoni pizza - 850
snack
coffee - 30
pre dinner
2oz Chicken breast - 85
1T franks Red hot wing sauce - 0
1/4c cauliflower - 6
2 beets - 44
Total - 1,614
My estimation for this evening:
3 pc spicy tuna roll - 200
2 pc california roll - 75
4 salmon sashimi - 156
1/2c edemame - 29
1 glass champagne - 78
estimated total: 538
so if this happens it will be approx 2,152
So that is what I'm shooting for!!

Friday catch up
It was Friday yesterday, and I had a friend coming to spend the night so I didn't get a chance to get on the puter!
I had my second chiro adjustment at noon yesterday and everything was mucho better! My neck is still getting back into it, but my hip is so much better! I actually trotted down the stairs this morning without thinking!
That's progress.
Friday Food:
bfast
egg, cheese biscuit - 350
coffee - 30
lunch
12inch roasted chicken sub - 545
22 snapea peas - 130
1 sugar cookie - 75
snack
44 snapea crisps - 260
diet coke - 0
5 gummies - 50
dinner
5oz skiness boneless chicken breast grilled - 214
2T franks red hot wing suace - 0
3 med beets - 66
1/2c cauliflower - 13
1/4T evoo - 30
snack
1strawberry - 4
2 blackberries - 4
2 raspberries - 4
1 liberte coconut yogurt - 270
Total calories: 2,045
Not great, but not terrible. I let my snacking slide in the afternoon and I know why. I didn't each lunch until past 1pm. After breakfast at 8.30, that is just WAY too long to let it go. My chiro appointment took forever and instead of being done at 2.15, I was done at 12.50, and that really was too long to wait for food.
I got back to work and inhaled my sandwich, accepted a cookie that I shouldn't have and went on a hunt for food. So better prep for this next time - then no "hangry" tammy food seeking.
Other then that, I'm quite pleased with how I'm going. Things are well on thier way.

My chiro appointment took forever and instead of being done at 2.15, I was done at 12.50, and that really was too long to wait for food.
I got back to work and inhaled my sandwich, accepted a cookie that I shouldn't have and went on a hunt for food. So better prep for this next time - then no "hangry" tammy food seeking.
Other then that, I'm quite pleased with how I'm going. Things are well on thier way.

1 more rest day
The sore hip is feeling better, I can still feel some pain when going up stairs, but it doesn't hurt going down them, while standing or while walking. Success is just around the corner for this. One more night of ice and rest and I'm going to give my Couch 2 5K a go tomorrow.
Food today was less good then I wanted. My first error was not filling up my water bottle in the morning. Big mistake. Huge. I didn't hardly drink any water until after lunch.
By this afternoon I was snacky, hungry, frustrated....all kinds of things.... what I really needed was more water to fight off the sugar craving in the afternoon.
Nevertheless, it was still a good day by past standards, but this afternoons snacking got out of control. Not good. Tomorrow will be better and I'll be on top of the water situation!

Couch 2 5K - Day 5
My running buddy is sick so I was on my own for this one.
I ended up running an extra set (1.5min running, 2min walking). I thought that I might have "fat fingered" the screen accidentally because I was behind where I would normally be when finishing. After the extra set was done, I remembered that I had to do a 1 block detour at the start, so I was actually ahead! All Good!
Distance today was 3.05km! Not too shabby. However, my left hip is killing me. :( Ahh the life of joints on an obese person - they are bearing load for the weight of two right now, and this hip is just not happy. Of course, riding a desk all day as a job is not helpful. I've got to get it stretched out and I am getting aggressive on the foam roller tonight!!!
I'm going to give the glutes and IT Band a good going over and that should help a lot. Also...Hello Ibuprofen my sweet sweet lover. Come to Tammy.
Food today was good today. I'm really pleased with my more conscious eating, particularly at the office and in the evenings. No mindless grazing.

About 100 calories more then I was aiming for, but I'm very pleased with my choices today. It wasn't burgers and chips. I was thinking of only having a single sandwich with my soup, but I was actually hungry, so I had two. Next time I'll make three and split one with the Husbeast. Why didn't I think of THAT earlier. rawr. Time to get funky on the floor (after some blog reading!).

Phew...Friday
I'm very happy to have made it through today. Fridays are tough around the old office. The Husbeast and I discussed weights... since neither of us would bend over to pick up a $100 bill right now, we gave ourselves tonight off from the new "program" of weights.
However, we will do it tomorrow, and promised to get a better warm up in before just flinging ourselves into it. This soreness is criminal.
I have my C25K running tomorrow, and I know the dog is looking forward to it! I'll do that, take the Husbeast out for a 5min warm up and we will hit the weights. Tomorrow will be good.
Food today is okay. I ended up being tempted into eating 5 m&m's for my afternoon snack. Honestly, I was hungry when I got home, but the snack-attack I had early today totally passed and I didn't need anything. Yay. Small step.
Had 5 almonds when I got home, and then we walked the dog for 20min. Husbest wanted pizza, so we went out for one of my fav's - whole wheat pizza with spinach, tomatoes, and feta. So awesome....SO.MUCH.SPINACH. I feel (almost) good about eating it! We shared a greek salad to start and had waters.
