So, my first week of getting back on track and I did way better than I thought I would. I used www.myfitnesspal.com to track all my foods and exercise in. So are you ready?

-5.6 pounds!

What did I do?

Planned my foods in advance
typed in everything I ate to know how many calories I consumed
walked home from work instead of getting a ride/taking the bus
Did a few workouts on demand
limited alcohol
Cut out late night eating during the week.
No seconds at dinner

So, I am pretty excited about that!

This is going to be a short post, I have to make my breakfast and lunch for work, but I did make a few great things:

I made my Baked potato soup:

My favorite soup!

And I made some Salsa


And yesterday my Mom invited me to a club she belongs to for a nice luncheon and singing program. Thanks Mom, it was a lot of fun!

My plate (except my Mom stole my french toast! :) )

This is where the lunch was

And, I didn’t have dessert OR seconds at the buffet, I chose smaller portions! Wahoo!!

Have a great Monday!

    Great loss.
    The baked potato soup looks so good, I used to make potato soup when we first got married but havent made it for a lot of years. Maybe this week I will do it :)
