View BECKAMARIE's food & exercise for this day
This week is already so busy that I am dreading it.
Last night we went to a friends and Matt helped plant 3 trees for them. We had talked about ordering dinner but it was getting later and later and I finally decided just to take the baby home and tuck him in. I whipped up some spaghetti sauce and cheese tortellini and it was so yummy! I ate another half serving more than I had planned but it will be okay.
I'll try to check back in later...
11:27 - NEW GOALS! 175 pounds solid by Jeremy's wedding a week from this Friday (that's a 1.5 pound loss)

and 170 by the Memorial Tournament. (4 weeks exactly from the wedding)

If I don't get to 170 by then my punishment will be no

sharing a beer and yummy 'sammy' with my hubby. And believe me, that is about to break my heart just thinking about it so that is great motivation!!!!!!
Other new plan

.. now that it is spring, I will eat a quick dinner on my own and not worry about eating with MIL, unless we are planning on grilling out or something ahead of time. I am really a 'front loading' eater. Eat most of my food before 2 p.m. and then an early small dinner at 4 or 5 and I'm good to go! I only wait to eat because of the social pressure but then I get too hungry and screw up. But once the weather breaks Matt will be in the yard till dark and he doesn't care about a big deal at dinner so it is easier to sneak out of the traditional meal.

Grilling something quick for dinner is great during the summer!

I do better when I eat more in the early afternoon and then lay off.

That was much better than if you had ordered out, so good for you. Based on your success so far, I don't think you're going to have any trouble meeting those short term goals -- good for you!
