One Battle Won!

Yesterday was a success! I stuck with my plan. When I got home last night after work, Mom & Dad had taken Kevin with them to the store. I took advantage of this childless moment and changed my clothes and hopped on the treadmill. I walked at a pace between 2.5 - 2.8 mph for 25 minutes. I figured out how many calories I burned (about 156.25 calories) based on the MET (metabolic equivalent) scale. I ate a scrambled egg & cheese tortilla wrap. Next time I will put less cheese in it and reduced fat cheese, which will help lower the fat and calorie content. One thing I noticed about yesterday was I didn't eat enough calories! Wow! That's a first. I only had 1221 calories and 22 WW points. I'm suppose to have between 28-35 pts a day w/ Weight Watchers. So, I probably could have included some more protein and more veggies (since I don't think I ate ANY veggies yesterday.)

Today is going well so far. I ate a South Beach Diet wrap for breakfast and went to brunch only because my mom brought my son Kevin in today. But I was good and ate only fruit and brought some back to the office w/ me to munch on when I'm hungry. I popped a piece of gum in my mouth to keep me from eating my meal too soon.

That's it for now ... keep your prayers comin'!
