Thoughts
I forgot to take a pic on Monday so I guess I'll wait til next monday.
I saw someone today I havent seen for 2 months and she doesnt know Im trying to lose weight. Her first words were, "Youve lost weight!" I said, "yea, a little." "Wow, how much?" she asked. "Five pounds," I told her. "Oh no," she said, "It has to be more than that!" I told her it must be muscle cause I work out. She said I look toned. So that was good to hear!
I have a house full of candy and Im trying not to eat it. I had a chocolate protein bar and now I want more chocolate! I didnt even want chocolate before I had the bar. GRRRRRR.
Oh and I weighed myself this morning. 200 GRRRRR I was disappointed. I am on my period though. But I hate seeing that number! It depressed me :o(

Turkey and Bean Chili
Serves 6
Serves 6
1 cup chopped white onions
4 small garlic cloves
1 pound lean ground turkey breast (99% fat free)
Garlic Salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 15-ounce cannelini beans (white kidney beans)
1 4-ounce can diced green chilies
1 15-ounce can black beans
1 10-ounce can tomato puree
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies and spices
1 14.5-ounce can reduced sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
4 small garlic cloves
1 pound lean ground turkey breast (99% fat free)
Garlic Salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 15-ounce cannelini beans (white kidney beans)
1 4-ounce can diced green chilies
1 15-ounce can black beans
1 10-ounce can tomato puree
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies and spices
1 14.5-ounce can reduced sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add the turkey to a large pot with the onion and garlic. Continue to cook on medium-high heat until the turkey is no longer pink. Add your spices to the turkey mixture so that they can release their natural oils (chili powder, crushed red pepper, coriander, cumin, and season with a little bit of garlic salt. Allow to cook for about 1 minute or so. Drain and rinse your beans. Add them to the pot along with the diced chilies, diced tomatoes, chicken broth and tomato puree. Allow mixture to come to a boil then reduce the heat to low and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes.
For a few extra calories you can top with some reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese and a dollop of reduced-fat sour cream. Any left-overs? You can freeze any remaining chili and next week you can bake a small potato and pour 1 cup of chili over potato and wala, you have a new meal.

crazy day eating cause i forgot my lunch at home.
ECE appreciation
Today was stressful. It was ece appreciation day. So my supervisor asked everyone what they wanted from Tims. I was good and said apple cinnamon tea. I had a stevia pack in my purse and used that. But she also bought lots of chocolate and muffins and crap. She did have fruit though so I measured out a cup of fruit and saved it for later. But I forgot my protein shake at home for lunch. So for lunch I just had that cup of fruit. Theres not really anything else at work to eat. Paul brought me my shake at 1 though. I had to quick slam it cause we had a meeting at the bank. Then I wasnt able to go home and get something for my noon snack. So I found some stuff to eat at work. Then I came home and had supper but had to quick leave and go to an ECE appreciation event. They had all kinds of desserts! Nanaimo bars and cheese cakes. Also pulled pork sandwiches and meatballs. I didnt even go up to the table. People were carrying around trays and serving people. I took nothing! Didnt even have a coffee. I had one glass of water! Im proud of myself!

Temptations
Food sucks! All the temptations and cravings are awful. I keep going back and forth between, "I dont care what I weigh, I'll just eat!" and "I want to lose weight for Disney!" I want to eat everything at work: muffins, cheese, bruschetta bake, etc. It's so hard! I need a reward for not eating it. And Halloween is coming up right in the middle of my 6 weeks. I LOVE Halloween chocolate. And the chips! So, if Paul agrees, I am going to get a piercing if I don't touch any of the Halloween candy. I need constant reminders of how great it will be to be down 15 instead of up 15!

Setback
I have had a horrible cough for 5 weeks. I went in to bootcamp coughing and Sandra was like, "WTF?" I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with bronchitis and was told not to exercise because it will irritate it. I was put on antibiotics and 2 different puffers. After 10 days of antibiotics, I still had the cough. So I ended up missing bootcamp for 3 weeks.I went back to the doctor yesterday and they told me it wasn't bronchitis but post nasal drip irritating my throat and making me cough. So I dont know if I had bronchitis or not but I was setback with exercising. I'll admit, I could have ate better but I did not. Shame on me. So here it goes, 6 weeks til December I want to be down 15lbs.

Frustrated
So I'm frustrated. Very frustrated. I am eating according to my nutrition plan and exercising at bootcamp 5 days a week for the past 3 weeks. Last week I was only down .2lbs. This week, up .4! What the heck??? It must be muscle people say. You look like you've lost weight, people say. My pants are falling off my ass I say! But still Im so stuck on the number. Sandra is saying, "Everyone on Donnas plan is showing results." well Im not! Its frustrating. Honestly, I wouldnt recommend the nutrition plan. I dont feel like Donna is spending as much time with me as she should for $150. At the beginning she just briefly asked me questions at bootcamp. We never had a sit down at her store. When I call her I feel rushed. When I go in I feel like she doesnt want to talk to me. I didnt call her for a month and she never called to see how I was doing. So I guess I wasted $150. I'll take the nutrtion plan and stay on it but whatever. I have been stuck between the same 10lbs for SO long. I just feel like saying Fuck it :o(

Size 32?
So someone gave me some jeans that are size 32. They are women's jeans but I dont know what size that would be in normal women's sizes. I tried them on and they fit last night so I wore them out. I was wondering what size they would be so I googled it. It said 32 is a women's size 12! I started at a 24 so to fit in to a size 12! That's like half the size I was to being with! I cant believe it. That's like a normal size jean. Then I think about how I didnt go to bootcamp all week and indulged a little too much. Shauna says Im too hard on myself. So now I am going forward. Hard bootcamp this morning, glad i went. Almost didnt go today cause I didnt want to face the music that I had gained. But I went, i was up 2.4 but my inches are down. I did a hard hard workout and que sera, sera!

Back on track
I just did a weightloss challenge. I lost 11.4lbs in 4 weeks. I was so proud of myself! But it only took 3 weeks to gain it all back :o( I was pissed at myself. All my hard work down the drain. Im really finding it hard to get out (and stay out) of the 200s. So at bootcamp I told them I need a challenge. So Shauna decided to have to lose 8lbs by Aug 4. This was June 23. I thought easy peasy, I can do that in four weeks. So i decided not to start right away. Well dumb me went and gained 3 more pounds. So as of yesterday I was 208.6 :o( And I have to be to 197 by Aug 4. Yikes!

Onederland!
I am finally out of the 200s! I am 198.8 and it feels great! I am worried though because Ive been sick. Thurs I started getting the chills. I was freezing! That night I went from freezing then sweating all night. I went to work but came home at noon. I had a fever but my hands and feet were ice. I had a headache, weak, and felt exhausted. I was in bed for about 48hours. If I stood up I got dizzy. Sunday I was 101.4 and I never have a fever. My temperature doesnt even usually get to normal (98.6). Also I was extremely thirsty. Monday I decided to go to the doctor. I was convinced I had the flu. Turns out I had a kidney infection! Who would have thought that would all be caused from a kidney infection. So for 3 days I didn't get enough calories in me and no exercising. I am worried the 200s will come back :o( But I think if Im just careful with what I eat and get back to working out as soon as I feel better I should be ok.
