Lunch and Dinner is Made! Day 49 - 50

Hey NeverEver's

Sorry I wasn't here yesterday with a post. I really need to get someone else has my internet provider...it kept going in and out. Very annoying and not helpful at all when trying to write my blog post!

Anyways, I have not being doing all that great on the whole 'no processed foods' idea. It is harder then I thought especially since I didn't go to Fresh and Easy yesterday. I did go today though and picked up some peaches and chicken.


I did have a good breakfast yesterday. The tea, chamomile, was a nice change from coffee. No sugar added, although I was tempted to have some honey with it.

Was good the whole day then was surprised with one of my favorite Latino dishes...Taquitos. I couldn't say no. So yummy and chicken filled. I was able to stop at 4 though so it wasn't all bad.

Day 49 Daily Stats:

As you can see I didn't do that Spin Class I said I was going to do. I wasn't able to really get out of the house, it was just one of those days. At least I watched that food intake!

  Today wasn't my best day. Started off with a headache, didn't even do anything just woke up. So it was a very quite day until about later.

Lunch was quite an adventure though. Got the idea from SweetToothSweetLife. The tuna just looked so yummy and luckily for me I had some!


I didn't have any celery, but I needed to have something crunchy, so I diced a small apple. It was the perfect hit for the crunchy need! Also got some spinach to add some 'green' to it. Carrots were of course a necessary as well as the egg!


Have you guys tried 'Triscuit'? I love the rosemary one, it is the best one from what I have tried so far. It just has the perfect blend for a creamy topping or something salty.


Perfect little bite sized lunch was served! It really filled me up, which I did have my doubts. I still have some more tuna for tomorrow and maybe even the next day! Yay for leftovers!!

Dinner was a little more planned out. I saw somewhere an idea for chicken and asparagus, I looked for it but I wasn't able to re-find it. As I was unable to find it...and I only glanced over the recipe, I had to improvise dinner. Here was what I was able to come up with;


I cut up some chicken thighs, cooked them with EVOO and garlic / thyme. Fresh asparagus was cooked in water and the penne pasta wasn't supposed to be there but it made a nice addition.

This was Hubby approved well except the asparagus. He really didn't like that vegetable but I thought it was something different. I am going to try it in some other ways.

What do you think? The pictures getting a little better? What do you think of asparagus?

Oh and I wanted to try something new for my blog. I am going to be posting my Daily Stats the next day. So like today's will be on tomorrow's post. I just am seeing that I am missing some steps or my sleep.

NeverEver's you guys have to let me know what you think about the day later idea!

Sunday Plan Day + Daily Stats 46 - 48

Hey NeverEver's!

I do hope you all enjoyed your Sunday...and if you are a Football fan the first seasons games! Can't say the Hubby and I were very lucky in those games. We practically lost the same way and ALMOST the same score. Not a good day for us at all!

Speaking about not good days...I have to admit this weekend, from Friday to Sunday, hasn't been my best of days. I have been at home this whole weekend with the hubby just watching movies. Except for that small PS3 (playstation 3) scare we had...we didn't do anything. And my Daily Stats show it.

Friday Day 46 Stats:


Friday I caught up with a friend over at Red Robin. Stayed away from the burgers...but not the beer. I really need to watch those liquid calories. For dinner the hubby and I decided on Taco Bell. Have to say that I don't think I can handle it ever again. It didn't go well for me...so Taco Bell is now off the list of fast food places!

I know it should have been off a while ago, but when your trying to lose weight but the rest of the family isn't, as they don't need to, its hard to balance. That is why I usually allow weekends a free pass and don't worry about it. But my body is changing...and it doesn't like fast food anymore.

Saturday Day 47 Stats:


Saturday I felt that it wasn't to bad. We had a small issue with the PlayStation 3, which was fixed after spending $60.00 on it. Not as bad as sending it into Sony though and it seems to be working just like new again!

Hubby actually made lunch, a ham sandwich with egg. I forgot to take pictures so the results can't be seen, but let me tell you it was YUMMY!

As we had a late lunch Hubby and I decided to share some Panda Express. I think I can get used to the idea of sharing as we were full afterwards.

Sunday Day 48 Stats:


Sunday has to be my worst day since I started this blog. Never have I been in the 'surplus'! Sad thing is...the calories basically came from liquid calories. I really need to watch my beer intake, especially when I am out with a crowd.

So as this weekend I went over board with processed food, I am going shopping tomorrow and picking up as much fruits and veggies and unprocessed food that I can. The plan is to get the processed food out of my system.

Here is the Grocery List:

  • Lemons - This is for water flavor
  • Egg Whites
  • Lean White Meats
  • Greek Yogurt
  • Fruits
  • Green Tea - I think I might already have this...have to check
  • Vegtables
  • Nuts - I have almonds and peanuts so I am good to go!
Basically I am staying away from pasta and rice (that is going to be so hard), sugars and anything that comes in a box. Yup looking at boxes as the enemy right now!

Now please don't worry this is only for 3 days and only to clean out all my bad decisions from this weekend. 

Also my Workout Schedule:


Monday: Spin Class

Tuesday: Body Pump

Wednesday: H.I.I.T

Thursday: Day Off

Friday: Gym Cardio

Saturday: Day Off

Sunday: Strength Train Gym

Okay NeverEver's I am getting ready to hit the sack early tonight! Have you planned out next week?
