so you know they say it takes 21 days to form a habit but I guess now it takes longer. Since I am working I don't have the time to figure out how to post pictures yet and make it a picture food log! but i am taking pictures of what I eat, and last night another nurse asked me if this is helping. well think of it this way if you actually take a picture of everything you eat to show other people you kinda do think of what you are putting in your mouth LOL!
so let me get on with this blog entry...
breakfast occurred at 1230 in the am-- yellow and red grape tomatoes with blueberries/blackberries- 0 points
when I got home around 0800 I made an egg sandwich and had a glass of milk ( i need to find new bread it was 6 pts!) 12 points
oh thankfully I logged that i had a granola bar forgot to picture it for 3 points
after sleeping i had another glass of milk, chicken breast, a green giant frozen veggie mix- 10 points
afternoon snack- 2 cuties 0 points
dinner a salad of romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, 1 T shredded parmesan, 2 T of lemon hummus vinagriette from Fresh & Easy (which I will admitted was AMAZING!!!)
since I still have some points left I will take the advice of the spin instructor and have some almonds for 4 points and ill add in another granola bar of 2 points! yay now off to work i go!

food log 1-7-12
So after thinking I was going to kill over on my 3 mile WCRR run this morning I have successfully ate properly today! here is my day in review.
Breakfast was blueberry oatmeal for 4 pts
after run/morning snack was a smoothie made of 2c (40cal) almond breeze, 2T PB2, 1 t olive oil, 1 banana 4 pts
lunch was nana's lentil soup 5 pts over a bed of romaine lettuce with a side of a cutie, blueberries, blackberries
afternoon snack was a banana and a sweet and salty peanut granola bar for 5 pts
dinner was a can of black beans and havest vegetable steamables with 1 t olive oil for 15 points.
i have 1 leftover point but i don't think I will use it.
so far I have only drank 32oz of water, but NO soda! will be drinking a 32oz bottle of water with 1 crystal light on my way to work.
just wanted to say that when you start to see yourself getting lazy or gaining weight just think of all the time it took to get where you are. 3 miles used to be so easy, now i had to run/walk it. Before I have ran 18 miles and now 3 is hard! But I will get back there!!

so yes I suck!
its been almost EIGHT months since I posted, and hello why would that be because my BUTT is as big as the state of TEXAS that i left! so with the joys of stalking pininterest I read a blog today runsforcookies. She lost 125lbs and had the SAME surgery I did but unlike me she is already back and running. I stopped working out, moved to texas as a night shift nurse, back to cali still night shift nursing and that just adds to all my excuses on why i can't work out and why i gained from 174 to sad to say 226.4. really? my weight is so embarrasing my tiny lucky jeans no longer fit, the biggest jeans i bought don't fit, my pt gear is riding up, my great boob job isn't looking so great with weight gain, etc i have a LONG list of ugh gaining my weight back sucks but yet my motivation still is slacking. so I will start tracking and actually posting like i have said i will. my plans for now are back to WCRR for half marathon training. I am running/walking Phoenix next weekend, thinking about san diego half, san diego rock n roll half, and starting the carlsbad, la jolla, AFC triple crown series. ALL along with my hubby!!! I am back on Weight Watchers in an awesome Wednesday morning group (I am already in their FB group).
As I was leaving spin this week, the instructor gave me a lot of tips. Some of the tips I will use, but i was like i know how to do this, I just HAVE to do it again. so maybe no one will read this or just think oh there's anna again in her yo yo weight loss plan. But this is for me and anyone who may benefit from watching me learn to lose weight, maintain it in a busy life of a working mom of 4, married to a sexy sailor!!

umm oopps
It has been 2 months since I have blogged, no wonder my scale has gone up. I love to weigh myself, but when i know the scale is up I tend to stay off of it, um dumb idea. well most of you know I moved to this little tiney town last year, almost been a whole year now and that there is a huge lack of a good gym or motivation to be fit and it is hot as hell! i am talking it is still 99* at 10pm! so with all that the weight has crept or jumped back on, sadly to say I am back at the weight that Todd came home to see me at in Feb 2009!!! Now this was 8 months postpartum with twins, and now I am almost 3 years postpartum soooo ekkkk...
So Molly and Dee are rocking some crazy vegan lifestyle and keep telling me the weight will just melt off my ass (which is huge by the way) so today is day 2 of a new veganish lifestyle for me. i really only ate chicken,fish, and turkey so it isn't a huge deal to meal, but i sure don't like the idea of missing cheese, milk, and eggs so I will say I am attempting to be vegan but more likely a vegetarian.
So day 1 went well but I was traveling to/from San Antonio so I cheated on caloric intake and HAD to have a starbucks (we don't have a coffee shop either).
Today so far so good, its 3pm and here's what I have ate:
b-green shakeology with 10cal juice, banana, frozen peach slices
s-coffee (did cheat w/the creamer but i have cocconut milk lined up after creamer is gone), 1 liter water finished
l-2 portobello mushroom caps, 2 slices of bread, 1 avocado, spinach leaves, and some spouts, and a mango
dinner plans are 2 artichokes and sliced pineapple!
now to refill the water bottle up with crystal light!!!!

March 1st!
Which I just have to say means we are almost HALFWAY done with yet another deployment! That makes me pretty excited and means I am 3 months away from being back in San Diego and enjoying the beautiful running weather and my fabulous friends who have all signed up to run the Rock N Roll half :) We are going to have such a blast!
So it's March 1st, a new fresh start to a new month! This month my major ONE goal I have set out for myself is to only drink ONE day this month, which will be March 25th. I am headed to Dallas, to run in the rock n roll half there. My goal since I am rebuilding my endurance is to finish in 2:50.
Today is Tuesday, which means yesterday was weigh in day for me. I totally bombed last week, I celebrated my brother's 21st bday then continued on to no work outs and no tracking of my food intake which lead to a gain. I gained 0.6lbs. BOOO!!!! oh well on to this week. I left the meeting and went to a friend's house who does WW as well. We took her dog on a 90 min walk, i think it was 4.5 or 5 miles or something like that, note to self wear garmin next time! then we popped a Kashi pizza in the oven YUM YUM YUM we even added more veggies and ummm some cheese to it.
this weeks goals: journal everything that goes in my mouth, workout for 1 hr, 5 days, no alcohol. I think I have a good start, after last night's walk, i did a run this morning and about to do a dvd with Jillian Michaels who is promising me rockin abs for my cruise next month LOL
See you guys next Tuesday!

2-15
Well another week down, another weigh in over. This time its a happy one! Down 1.6 making 199.8. boo for gaining weight back when i was in the 170s but such is life. i feel my whole life i have been on a diet. blah. but if i do this right and make it a life style change then i shouldnt feel like its a diet right? anyhow i tracked on the online journal with WW last week, and even ate out 3 times this week! woot woot! i feel like this will be another good week.
What is really hard is when i work 14 hours and have to go back again for another day. i have to decide between sleep and a workout. it really sucks!!!
so this week i bought tons of tv dinners including bfast ones! i know they have alot of sodium but i am downing the water and getting back to normal portion sizes.
well heres to another week, of which im working 4 maybe 5 days of it so sleep eat work YAY me
