Day 3 time to add exercise!

Okay okay I know... If I want to lose weight I gotta exercise.  I was supposed to play tennis this am but the rains guilted me into going to the gym.  I did 30 min of cardio (treadmill/bike) and 30 weight machines/abs.  I'm gonna be sore.

Here's todays food list

B:1 whole egg plus 2 egg whites omelet with spinach onion feta
M: yogurt with berries
L: ezekiel wrap with turkey, avocado, onion, spinach, tomato
A: ezekiel toast with almond butter 1/2 sliced banana
D: 1/2 Kashi Mediterraen Pizza

Fell asleep in my car (I never do that) waiting for kids ballet class to end.  The gym must have really kicked my butt!

Day 2 A little easier

This is not as hard as I initially thought.  Eating 6 small meals a day instead of 3 larger ones is okay.  It's a lot of food though.  I haven't eaten meal 6 yet.

Todays food

B:Choc. Protein Shake
M: Ezekial toast with Banana
L: went out had garden salad dress on side, asparagus crab soup (ate 3 bites too full!)
MM: yougurt with berries
D: Chicken (1/2 br.) w/ Jamacian spice mix, 1/2 sweet potato

Feeling pretty good, still very tired from sleeping badly.  Snoring bear~~~

Day 1 - The Jump Off

Well today's Day 1 and I'm starting out full of good intentions, as usual.  I'm hoping this will work in combination with the new medication the doctor has me on.  Decided that I need to include my diet and exercise with the medication in order to give it a fair shot. 

Starting weight: 198 reality bites!

Reason for starting:  I'm down to taking medication for my health, not how I want to live
Here's what I ate today

BK:Oatmeal with 2% milk/1 scoop protein powder/flaxseeds/bee pollen
MM: Ezekiel Bread toast with almond butter/strawberries
LT: Turkey Ezekiel Wrap with Tom.Onion Lettuce Avocado
AF: Hummus/Carrots
DT: homemade sausage with potatoes and mixed vegetables

Feeling: I was stuffed and had a hard time eating all this food
