LM Day 35

Talk about these late nights...geez last night I didn't get to bed until 1:00 am!! So the last 3 nights I have not been to bed before midnight!!! I am too old for this crap!! Lol!! Today was another busy day at work and so I am relaxing today and hoping to go to bed before 10 for some much needed zzzzz to gear up for another busy day tomorrow! ;) goodnight all!

LM Day 34

One word describes me today...TIRED!!! :) I don't remember the last time I went to bed before 10:30...I know whoopee right, but I normally go to bed at 10:00!! lol My hubby got home late last night from working on his new motor and I don't think he set his alarm!! We normally get up by 5:45, he has to be to work at 7:00...well...this morning he did not wake up until 6:45...omg!!! So that's how my morning started off and after 2 cups of coffee I am still not awake!! LOL!!!! :) We are going to some races a hour and 1/2 away tonight...so guess what...another late night! Gotta love the summer time though! Hope every one's day is fabulous! =)

LM Day 33

Wow....the weekend went FAST!!!! I hate when that happens! ;) So my week started off busy...had to leave at 8:00 this morning to go out of town for work and didn't get back until 4:00. Came home, made supper, did dishes, checked on here and finally posted, now it's time to get outside and enjoy the weather (Saturday was 105 and humid as no other) it's very enjoyable out today!! Have a great evening! :)

LM Day 30...IT'S FRIDAY!!!!

I weighed in at the same weight as last week...which is a good thing...but I would still like to get back down about 5 lbs. so I was hoping I would have a loss. I don't know why I expected a loss though because I have not ate the best this week and ate late last night (8:00 p.m.)!!! I will weigh again in the morning after eating cleaner today and hopefully see a drop.

I am super happy that it is Friday...this week has went fast, but seemed very loooong at the same time! Weird, I know. lol Hope everyone has a fantastic Friday and enjoys their weekend! =)

Here is the Mug Cake recipe

This recipe is for one serving and is cooked in a coffee mug in the microwave
Ingredients:

4 Tlbs. Coconut flour (I use almond flour)
4 Tlbs. Sugar Alternative (I use sweet n low but only about 3 packets. In P4, I use agave nectar)
2 Tlbs. cocoa powder
1 egg
3 Tlbs. milk
3 Tlbs. oil
Splash of Vanilla extract
1 large coffee mug

Mix all dry ingredients in mug, add egg and blend thoroughly. Add milk, oil and vaniella and mix. Place in 1000 watt microwave for 90 seconds. Do not cover mug. Cake will rise over top - do not be alarmed. Let cool and place on plate. Add a little whipped cream to top or carb wise ice cream.

It is REALLY GOOD! Add a little homemade whipping cream on top and it is to die for.

LM Day 29

Another busy day today!! Lots of stuff going on at work...I didn't get off until 7:00 tonight!! Man what a long day!!! I ate dinner after I got home so hopefully that doesn't have negative effects on the scale in the morning!! Lol thank goodness tomorrow is Friday... I am so ready for the weekend!!

LM Day 28...whoops!

Oh man, I feel as though I ate a lot today! The Jimmy John's here in town had a customer appreciation day and $1.00 subs...I mean really, how do pass that up??? lol So I had a sub for lunch. And for breakfast, I made a mug cake, I hadn't had one of those in forever and being TOM is visiting I had a craving for it! :) Dinner is definitely gonna have to be something lighter...if anything at all...I am still stuffed! Hope everyone is having a fantastic hump day!

LM Day 27

It's been a pretty busy Tuesday, but I did just take an hour and relax a little!!!! :) I went and got a pedicure over my lunch hour...it was much over-do and absolutely amazing!! :) Now back to work and afternoon meetings...fun, fun! Hope everyone has a great day! :)

LM Day 26

Happy Monday! :) TOM finally arrived today...I swear I have been bloated for the last 2 weeks!! My stomach finally feels a little more normal today thank goodness. I have yet another busy week at work...have to remind myself to be thankful that I have a job! lol Hope everyone has a good week! :)

LM Day 25

Happy father's day to all the dads out there...especially my wonderful husband and my amazing father!! I had a wonderful birthday...the hubby and daughter bought me an iPod touch...they are so kind and thoughtful!! I am typing on right now!! :) this weekend has of course been very busy as usual, but it has been very fun! Getting ready to head to the race track in a bit...great way to end a great weekend!

LM Day 23

Happy Birthday to me!!! lol So I thought I ate really well this week and I was hoping to lose some weight...but I stayed the same...darn it! Better than I gain I guess, but geez! :) Have a busy weekend planned...can't wait! Happy to say the sun is shining today and I will be leaving work very soon to enjoy my birthday! :) My wonderful husband and daughter bought me an ipod touch for my birthday...I have been wanting one since Christmas...they are so sweet! =) Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

LM Day 21

I am finally feeling better today...I have had such a stomach ache the past 2 days! I just wish TOM would show up already. I expected it this week, but with the symptoms I am having, I know it will come next week! My eating this week was good up until today...my good friend took me out to lunch for my birthday (it's Friday) and we had Chinese food. It was very tasty and I enjoyed every bite...it's not everyday that's your birthday so you gotta enjoy these little things in life! =) I will be back on track tomorrow and then weigh on Friday morning so that I can enjoy my birthday and not have to worry about weighing on Saturday! =)

LM Day 20

I did pretty good with my calories yesterday, but was a little high with my carbs. Yesterday's target calories was 1694 and I ate 1697...I can handle that...but I try to keep my carbs under 100 g and I ate 122 g. Oh well, still stayed under 150! :) I am still waiting for nasty ole TOM to show up...I have felt like I should have it for the past 2 days, but nothing except cramps and bloating... I will try and remember to post yesterday's menu when I get home later. TTFN friends! :)

LM Day 19

Oh my, what a busy weekend!!! :) Some friends of ours bought a new house and so we were busy helping them move Friday night and all day Saturday! Got there at 11 am and didn't get home until 11:30 pm. I was wiped...and then yesterday it was a rainy day (AGAIN) so I did some much needed cleaning at my house. Also did some paint touch ups and tore off the wallpaper in my bedroom so I can repaint in there! Whew...this Monday morning has been just as crazy...hopefully it slows down a little bit! I am praying for sunshine, I cannot take the cloudy rainy days ANYMORE!!!

After my bad eating all week last week, I gained 1 lb. not bad considering, but TOM arrives today and so I am very bloated! I am going to follow the zig zag calorie eating this week and hope with the combination of it and TOM coming to an end I can loose at Saturday's weigh in. I would really like to lose 5 lbs! Today's calories need to be 1694.

LM Day 15

I will eat clean today...I will eat clean today! :) I was awaken at 4 a.m. today by the loudest thunder boomer I have every heard! It even made the car alarm go off on my husbands car! LOL! Looks like this whole weekend is going to be rainy...which really bites!! I am sick of rain...I need sunshine and warmth, I have only had my AC on 1 day this year, how crazy is that!

LM Day 14

Man how time flies, it's already a hump day again!! :) Yesterday turned out to be a bad eating day! Breakfast was fine, I had an english muffin-1/2 with butter & all natural jam, the other 1/2 with almond butter. I snacked on some dried bananas and almonds. I was out of town at a training for work and the people I was with decided to go to pizza hut for the buffet...eeeeek! Well I had 2 slices of pizza, yes they are tiny slices so probably only equal one full size piece but still! Then I had one cheese stick and a small salad with ranch dressing. I felt miserable for the rest of the afternoon. After work I had a massage...an hour and 1/2 long massage!!!!! And it was wonderful...I LOVE MY THERAPIST!!! She is so amazing! So that was the highlight of my day...got home late and warmed up a turkey sausage link and had some honey roasted cashews...man those things are lethal!!! Was thinking about weight myself but chickened out since I already felt bloated due to tom symptoms!

Today hasn't been much better. Breakfast was the same as yesterday, but then my husband called wanting to take me out for lunch to a Mexican restaurant. I ordered nachos...not too bad, but the beans and the chips were definitely the kicker there! I have got to get things back in order tomorrow!!!

LM Day 13

I was on here yesterday, but apparently forgot to post! lol Nothing exciting happening the past few days. Sunday was a gorgeous day, Monday not so much. It was cloudy all day and then rained. I think it must have rained 2 inches overnight cuz it's very soggy this morning, but hey, the sun is shining a little through the clouds now! :) I have TOM symptoms already rearing their ugly heads...the joys of being a woman! :) Hope you have a fantastic day!

LM Day 11

Yesterday was my free day...didn't go too crazy. I decided to weigh myself this morning to see the damage...great news....I was down .2...LOL!!!! Isn't life just crazy sometimes! It made me very happy to say the least...I hope it keeps continuing cuz I got another 2 lbs to loose to back to ldw! :) Hope everyone has a splendid Sunday! :)

LM Day 10

I weighed in yesterday, but I am super happy that I decided to weigh today as well...yesterday I was only down .2, and today I am down 1 whole pound! YAY!!! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! :)

LM Day 8

What a busy day!! :) Today's eating was much better than it has been! Right at 100 grams of carbs, fat and protein were both better also. I am gonna weigh in tomorrow and who knows I may still weigh on Saturday morning. lol I am off to bed, hope everyone had a good day!!! Goodnight all!

LM Day 7

Yesterday's eating was okay...but not great!!! I ended up making burritos for dinner and I ate half a flour tortilla!!! Still managed to keep my carbs just over 100...109 I think...so not horrible. The burrito was pretty tasty though! lol I have got to get to the grocery store tonight to get some food in my house, I hate when I have nothing to make for breakfast or lunch...if I don't pack my lunch and bring it with me to work, I am in trouble! :) Hope everyone enjoys their hump day! :)

LM Day 6

Had a fabulous weekend...good times with good friends, good family and good food!!!! I ate A LOT and had a great time!!! :) My 6 days off of work went WAY TOO FAST...and here I am back at the grindstone! I sure wish I had the whole summer off like the kids do! lol I hope with 4 days of good eating, I can correct any damage I did over the past 4 days and remain friends with my scale! haha Well, I hope everyone had a fabulous Memorial Day and enjoys the rest of their week! :)
