Everything has been crazy!

Hey guys it's Reena!! I AM SO SORRY there hasn't been many posts. For one my hours at work changed, for two my computer has crashed and I currently do not have one, and for three me and my boyfriend are in the process of getting a new house, packing, painting, and moving! It's been so hectic and  crazy and I feel awful that I haven't been updating.

On another note, I hope everyone is at least keeping up with their diet and exercising! This week has been a tough week for me but back to the grind in the a.m! My old Zumba instructor is starting back up again which I am wicked excited about! It starts in two weeks I believe. I will post where and when as soon as I find out more details! I would love to see you guys show up and have the time of your life.

I prob. won't be posting until after I move in. Hopefully my cousin and post some things in the mean time. Give me about 2 weeks or so. Until then I will repost some of the older blogs.

Weight loss update

Good afternoon all! Ok so it's been a while. I figured i (tiffany) would give a quick update of how i've been doing on weight watchers. So far i've been on WW for exactly 2 weeks today. I've lost 4.2 lbs. I weighed in  today and only lost .4 this week. Reasons why? I know exactly why....last weekend was horrible. Heres a breakdown..

friday: i went out to chinese. Had beef teryaki and also extra fried rice instead of eggroll ( almost ate it all)
friday night: had quite a few bites of Greggs Death by chocolate cake ( one slice itself is 76 pts if i remember)

saturday: Me and the boyfriend went out for breakfast at the cozy grill.

Saturday night: had a drink or two


UGHH. learned my lesson this week!

this weekend will be better i promised myself.


I will update every friday to let you know the loss/gain.

Change of heart

Hey guys its tiffany here. I am extremely sorry that i've been slacking on posts. I've decided to quit my second job which gives me plenty of time to update on how im doing, etc.

I'VE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART..

ON MY DIET!

I started off doing Herbalife. Which seemed to be okay at first. To me, it seemed to be extremely hard to keep up with and even harder to stick to. Two shakes a day seems like a piece of cake. Duh!  But for me it wasn't so easy.

I would have my two shakes a day and snacks in between like i should. By 2pm i would be starving. Craving anything and everything. From Chocolate to pasta to chips. It was AWFUL.  I decided to go back to doing weight watchers. I did weight watchers back in october and only stuck with it for 3 weeks until i found a started a new relationship (if you wanted to call it that).  I viewed my old progress and in that 3 weeks i had lost 4.8 lbs. So i know that has worked for me in the past, i'm aiming to try at it again.

I'm currently on day 2 of weight watchers and i feel great!

CRAVINGS=GONE
examples of what i have eaten so far...

breakfast day one:

1 fried egg (using pam on the pan. it should have been a boiled egg).
1 piece of wheat toast
8 oz of tropicana 50 orange juice

Snack:

 2 tablespoons light ranch veggie dip
7 baby carrots

Lunch:

Smart one

Breakfast day two:

6 oz skim milk
3/4 cup of special k vanilla almond

Etc...

I think it's a good thing that me and reena are doing different diets. This way here everyone can get the perspective of what goes on during both of our journeys.

Snacks!

You are at work and it's not quite time for lunch yet and you already ate breakfast about 3 hours ago and you are STARVING. What do you do? What do you eat? Do you suck it up and not eat anything? Well I have some answers for you.

You need eat at least 6 times a day....Breakfast, SNACK, Lunch, SNACK, Dinner, SNACK. Now when I say snack, I am NOT meaning chips, cookies, chocolate, a whole package of crackers, I mean something small and healthy and especially tasty. Make sure it's between 100-120 calories if you are on a 1200 calorie intake!

Here are some suggestions:

• Fruits! Cut up some fruits, make a fruit salad, and if it is not sweet enough for you, add 2 packets of splenda, truvia, sweet and low, or equal. Also, add some water so the fruit won't go bad.
• Veggies and dip! Any type of veggie will do! Just make sure the dip is Light of Fat Free. Remember, there is no need to consume extra fat where it can be prevented!
• 100 Calorie packs! They may be a little high in fats and carbs but if you can fit them into your daily intake that would be wonderful!
• Fiber one 90 calorie bars...DELICIOUS! 
• Fiber one Brownies...DELICIOUS and curves your chocolate cravings!
• Fat free vanilla/chocolate pudding
• Reduced fat wheat thins (check the flavors, see which ones you like or are better for your daily intake)
• Weight watchers String cheese (its the healthiest out there, I've checked)
• 80-100 calorie Yogurts! (make sure low in fat)
• Welches fruit snacks (kind of high in carbs but again, if it fits your daily intake its fine!)
• Rice cakes!!
• Skinny cow candy or skinny cow ice cream! (it's pricey but def worth it)
• Frozen Yogurt
•  Laughing cow cheese on rice cakes or crackers, w.e you prefer
• Baked Potato Chips (if you are really craving chips
• Kettle popcorn

And anything else that you can think of that isn't too high in fats, carbs, or calories! You can still have things that taste amazing and still get full at the same time!!
