Haven't seen ANY progress. at all. which is discouraging considering all the salads I have been eating. On the positive side though-I never did get that BEFORE picture, so at least I still have my chance. ick.

Been proud of myself for exercising though. MAN, am I outta shape. I get winded at the slightest bit. This BETTER be doing something. I hate exercising.

Really need to start keeping track of water input too. I used to be REALLY good about that during pregnancy. oh well.

Did crunches again today (btw, those were crunches yesterday, not situps. oops) AND went for a walk/jog once the kids were in bed, mostly to burn off frustration. All day I felt fat and squishy and weirdly, felt bigger than I was directly after Judah was born. Not good on the whole self-image bit and very discouraging, because though I am not restricting myself on foods (obviously, by the insane amounts of sugar I am consuming), I have been watching portion sizes and been conscious about food choices.

Notes to self: I see myself slipping into my non-breakfast eating bad habits. It doesn't seem that I can do it when school is happening. I need to wake up earlier. BEFORE the children. That would help, I think.

Breakfast:

banana
Morning Snack:

granola bars

Lunch:

TWO (yikes) sloppy joes on WW

Afternoon Snack: wheat thins and candy corn

Note to Self: I barely squeezed in a banana at breakfast (time issues, not fullness issues) which made me half starved by lunch. Shouldn't have eaten two sandwiches, but hey. I was half starved. Eat BREAKFAST, Rebecca. Drank lots of water. Did not exercise. Gotta start situps one of these days (yikes!) and walking.

A New Start: Monday

2010-09-13T09:41:00.000-07:00

Well. Baby has been born. I have had a week of blissful postpartum, with husband home and lots of money wasted (splurged) on food already prepared for us. I have cheated on soda, on fried foods, ice cream and everything in between but now I have to get back on track.

I promised myself I would start getting nutritious again today. My (probably unrealistic) goal is to lose 36 pounds by Christmas.

I know. But, gotta shoot somewhere I guess.

SO.

I'll get a "before" picture up in the next day or two. (I would today except I haven't washed my hair in three days, my shirt has spit up stains all over it and I don't even remember where I put my makeup.) There. I said it.

IN the meantime:

Back to recording what I eat. Rats.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Breakfast: special K topped with Banana

Mid morning snack: handful of banana chips (dehydrated bananas), a few candycorn

Lunch:

Pasta rings (white) with garden tomatoes
4 oreos
Ice water
(still Huuuuuuuuuuuuungryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.................)

Mid Afternoon Snack: kettle corn

Dinner:

Small slice of potroast, potato, carrots
Two small rolls

Exercise: none

wowza.

2010-08-25T11:54:00.000-07:00

Fell off the bandwagon...and rather like it down here. Think I will take a break from the food journaling until this baby is born.

The bag of candy corn I just ate has absolutely NOTHING to do with it. ;-)

2010-08-18T06:30:00.000-07:00

Breakfast:

glass of water
toast with apricot jelly

Midmorning Snack:

Granola Bar

Lunch:

Chicken alfredo pasta

Afternoon Snack: none

Dinner:

2 pancakes with peaches and real cream
a slice of bacon
glass of milk

Note to Self: drank lots of water too. Walked quite a bit. Thought I was in labor. Wasn't. Really REALLY irritating. But Mattie stayed home and that made me happy.

A very bad girl

2010-08-17T13:19:00.000-07:00

Today was errand day, my most favorite day of the week. (NOT.)

Went to...post office, library, Walmart, feed mill, bank, and to the church I clean weekly~to clean.
Feel about ready to die right about now. As per usual, while on my all-day runnings, I gave in to the temptation of getting myself something while out instead of packing myself a sandwich.

Breakfast:

granola bar
peach
half a glass lemonade

Mid-morning Snack: none I did drink about 20 oz. water.

Lunch: Arby's Turkey Bacon sub combo. Snarfed the whole sandwich, but divvied 90% of the fries out to the children. Had soda, which gave me some much needed energy to then grocery shop.

Mid Afternoon snack: 2 oatmeal cookies. and okay. a chocolate chip one too. 24 oz. water

Dinner:

Peach Smoothie
BBQ chicken wrap
broccoli salad
with a handful of dried banana chips and chocolate chips for dessert

Note to Self: SUCH a busy day. Tired just thinking about it. That's all.

2010-08-16T05:46:00.000-07:00

Not recording food over the weekend, but sorta wishing I was. Ate lots of salads and smoothies and good-for-you stuff. Even still, I stepped on the scale and weighed three pounds more! argh.
Hopefully those three pounds aren't on Smooch, that I am going to have to push out in the next week or so. *ouch*

Breakfast:

1/2 c. cottage cheese
Peach
1 slice of cinnamon sugar toast
Granola bar

Mid Morning Snack:

Granola bar

Lunch:

Minty Peach Smoothie with raw egg added for protein
small handful of cashews
one slice leftover pizza
one chocolate peanut butter bar

Afternoon Snack: oops

Dinner: Garden salad topped with a few fries and a chicken finger, cut up

Notes to Self: Was busy canning so I forgot all about my afternoon snack and didn't finally sit down to eat supper (myself) until 8:30pm. Bad girl. Also-since I wasn't using my typical canning-jar water glass, I have no idea how much water intake I had. double, triple oops. So-in summary, today pretty much stunk as far as "goals" go, but the food I did eat was good choices. Sorta.

Friday!

2010-08-13T06:01:00.000-07:00

Week 2 of food recording is officially over~it isn't hard at all (to write it down.)

Knowing I HAVE to tell if I eat something not great is pretty hard. ;-)

Thankfully, only two people have somehow "found me" so only they will be the only ones to come to realize I am just a kid addicted to sugar. Don't tell, will you please?!?

Breakfast:

Fruit smoothie with raw egg added for protein
Granola bar

Midmorning Snack:

Banana
Water 24 oz.

Lunch:

Bowl of soup, Chicken tortellini and zucchini (I'll be putting this recipe on Kitchen Riches one of these days)
Grilled Cheddar sandwich
Chocolate milk

Afternoon Snack:
cheddar rice cakes
two Reese Cup (!!)
Water: 24 oz.

Dinner:

Homemade Pizza!
bowl of fresh Pineapple

For Thursday

2010-08-13T05:56:00.000-07:00

Breakfast:

cereal

Mid-morning snack:

a peach

Lunch:

alfredo pasta (too much)
Soda (eek!)

Mid afternoon Snack:

popcorn (too good-but never sits well with me)

Dinner:

Greek Salad and a slice of warm bread
cup of Minestrone soup
Raspberry Iced tea

Notes to Self: Drank plenty of water, but didn't pay attention to how much. I am sure it was over my goal of 50 oz. a day. Eating popcorn and having it not settle well with me worked in my favor because I only had salad for supper. That's good, right? DID drink a soda, but I did it while OUT...it isn't in the house. Sigh. I really wish I didn't like the nasty stuff so much.

2010-08-11T11:00:00.000-07:00

Breakfast:

cereal
lemonade

Morning Snack:

mini cheddar ricecake
24oz. water

Lunch:

small piece of leftover pizza
about 3 bites of zucchini pie (thanks alot Mattie!)
three oreos
a peach

Afternoon Snack:

more mini cheddar ricecakes
cup of mandarin oranges
24 MORE oz of water

Dinner:

peach raspberry iced tea
Stuffed Chicken Marsala (1/3 the portion)
1 1/2 bowls Zuppa Toscana soup
Small salad
2/3 slice of chocolate mousse cheesecake

Notes to Self:

Went to Olive Garden on a "girls date" with my sister and ate....well. I refuse to feel guilty about it though, since I didn't get soda, didn't finish my chicken plate AND we went for a brisk walk along the trails afterward. Unlike my sister, I haven't exercised in ages so it means A LOT that I did. :-)

quickie recap

2010-08-10T13:49:00.000-07:00

oops. Totally forgot to record my eating over the weekend---and even into Monday! Got me to thinking~ it will be too hard to record over weekends, so I guess I won't expect myself to. I do, however, plan to record on MONDAY's despite my MINOR oversight.

Hey. This is only my second week. I mean, sheesh. It isn't exactly second nature to write down what I eat already! :-)

On Monday I had a midwife appointment and I weighed 3 pounds less!?!? Typically you stop gaining the last two weeks or so (though I never have before) but to lose three pounds? Weird.

Onward Ho.

Today is Tuesday. Here is what I ate:

Breakfast:
oatmeal with cinnamon, maple syrup and re-hydrated strawberries.
Lemonade
Totally yum. Left me with terrible heartburn though. ick.

Morning Snack:

a handful of cheddar mini-rice cakes. Water: 24 oz.

Lunch:

Two skinny slices of pizza and five double stuff oreos.
One glass of soda (gasp!)

Afternoon Snack:

Two granola bars
Water: 24oz.

Dinner:

Rosemary chicken (teeny bit)
Zucchini Pie
Strawberry yogurt
Glass of Milk

Other: about a gazillion TUMS. Oh man-this baby must have a headful!! :-)

Notes to Self: By the time I finally got that pizza reheated in the oven at lunchtime, I was beyond starving. I ended up eating way too many oreos while I waited for the pizza to warm up. Gotta stop and eat when I BEGIN to get hungry rather than wait until I can't take it anymore. They WERE good though! ;-)

Friday

2010-08-07T09:10:00.000-07:00

Breakfast:

bowl of corn chex with banana slices
lemonade

Mid Morning snack:
apple

Lunch:

beans on navajo fry bread with l,t,o and salsa
peach and pear smoothie

Afternoon Snack:
wildberry smoothie
string cheese

Dinner:

homemade pizza

Note to Self: Don't remember how much water I drank today but it wasn't as much as usual. I have found, drinking from a canning jar (with the ounces on the side) really helps me keep track.

Thursday

2010-08-05T06:53:00.001-07:00

Breakfast:

Strawberry yogurt
half bagel with peanut butter
banana
glass of lemonade

Mid-morning Snack:

1 string cheese
a handful of dried banana
24oz. water

leftovers: whole wheat penne and sauted garden veggies
small cup of ice cream
lemonade

Afternoon Snack: caramel mini ricecakes
24 oz. water

Dinner:
shredded beef and brown rice burrito
popcorn
2 glasses of milk

Notes to Self: Visited Gram at the hospital today after cleaning the church and didn't get home until late. Ate supper after 8 o'clock ( a goal has been to eat nothing after 7:30) so that stinks but didn't order myself take-out on the way home so that was pretty good!

Wednesday

2010-08-04T13:43:00.000-07:00

Breakfast:

Oatmeal
Glass of Milk

Snack: oops. Missed it again.

Lunch:

Chicken Sandwich
Large Soda
mini cheddar ricecakes
apple
oatmeal raisin cookie

Afternoon Snack:

small ice cream cone
homemade lemonade

Dinner:
whole wheat penne with pesto and garden veggies (about half my normal portion)
strawberry yogurt

NOTES: Went out for the day with my sister and as usual, being OUT at lunchtime makes it VERY hard not to cheat. I pack the kiddos sandwiches but I am NOT a sandwich person so I usually get something while out. I got a chicken sandwich at McD's and felt guilty about it but I held the fries, so I was SORTA good. I got a soda, I did, but my promise was not to have soda in the HOUSE-so TECHNICALLY I didn't cheat. ;-) Then, we surprised Matt at work and took him out for an icecream. It was 92 degrees today so---not feeling too guilty about that little pleasure either.

Sooooo thankful this is a plan of making my own personal healthy choices because I can and want to and that I wasn't on an actual diabetes diet or I would have been in DEEP trouble today. :-)

Tuesday

Peach
glass of Milk

Mid-morning snack: none

Lunch:
Leftovers: chicken breast, zucchini and mashed potatoes
5 chocolate mint wafers

Afternoon Snack: none

Dinner:

Large salad
Two glasses of milk

Note to self: Really want to have small snacks in between meals but since I am unaccustomed to it, I may need to actually "plan" them.

A new reason to blog

2010-08-02T13:52:00.000-07:00

This blog just sorta sits here, doing nothing since I rarely enter contests and have never been given the opportunity to review anything (which are the primary reasons I started it-so silly stuff wouldn't clutter my REAL blog).

Recently, at my 37 week prenatal appointment I was scared into taking a 3 hour blood glucose test and that got me to thinking making better eating choices needs to happen regardless of the outcome of said test.

I ended up passing the test but have determined to make conscientious eating choices from henceforward in order to try and prepare myself for losing that extra baby weight. (Plus the extra weight I had put on from the last baby, and the baby before that and the baby before THAT. hehehe)

No one, to my knowledge, knows about this little blog so I figured I would go ahead and make use of it for a food journal of sorts. An accountability sorta thing. Except, the only thing holding me accountable is the act of writing it down, for myself. Which in all truth, is pretty terrifying for me.

For the record, I am nine months pregnant right now and have three more weeks to go (supposedly) so this is NOT a diet. This is me-making healthy choices for food.

Healthy choices for me does NOT mean diet soda (that stuff is REALLY bad for you), or switching real butter for fake margarine, or eating those low fat/diet premade meal thingies.

In my opinion, REAL food is not only good for you but sustaining as well. My choices have everything to do with eating the right AMOUNT of food and avoiding the junk, preferring instead the real food. I admit, I like soda. I like chips. I love fried foods. This is going to be hard.

But it will be well worth it. (I hope.)

So here I am: 37 weeks pregnant.

(Is it fair to have a pregnancy shot be a "BEFORE" shot? You bet it is!)

I am 6 foot tall and at this very moment weigh (gosh, I hope no one finds this blog) 225 pounds.

Before I was pregnant I weighed 189 pounds.

My supposed "Ideal Body Weight" is 160-164 pounds. Can't REMEMBER the last time I weighed 160 and I have never been obese in my life so I am not sure if that is possible. I would be happy with 170-175 pounds.

Some goals for the next few weeks:

Drink much more water ( 50 ounces of pure water before any other drinks for the day)

No longer have soda in the house (I will allow it as a treat if I am out though.)

Switch to whole wheat pastas (we already eat brown rice and whole wheat bread).

Eat more veggies, fruits and more protein.

Stay far away from fried foods and chips.

Eat two small snacks between breakfast/lunch and lunch/dinner.

Don't eat food past 8:00 pm.

More goals will be added as I go along, especially when dear Smooch is born (and exercise becomes more possible) but until then, I think I will have my hands full just with these! :-)

Here goes nothing!

A Twin Sized QUILT?!

2009-11-30T12:54:00.000-08:00

MUST I tell you about this? Because the LESS people that know about it...the more chances *I* have!! ;-)

Love these quilts...it will be hard to know which to choose...they are both so lovely.

Go HERE for details. (if you MUST.) hehehe

Ucreate gives away a table

2009-11-27T04:34:00.001-08:00

A 6 ft. long, storeable table?!

That's been on my wishlist for quite some time.

YES PLEASE!

Food Storage Analyzer

2009-10-21T10:09:00.000-07:00

I participated in this deal (and you can too by following the link) in order to receive a $10.00 giftcard.

I am glad I did. The Analyzer is an online food storage calulator that does the work for you. You enter what food you have stored up, it tells you how long that food will feed your family. This is good for me, because I am just new to this food storage thing and don't really know how much is enough.

I found it very helpful and look forward to using it again. I do wish they had weights in the description of each product. I added how much pasta I had per pound, and got an astronomical number of days I could feed my family. That leads me to believe that they are judging their pasta by larger increments, not by poundage. I could not find the weight/size of the food item unless it was in a large tub, which I don't have at all.

Try it out and see what you think. Then, follow the instructions found here, to receive your own free giftcard!

DQ Deal

2009-02-27T06:44:00.000-08:00

Dairy Queen has got themselves a winning idea by making yummy food at a price that ALWAYS stays right.

And I love me some dairy.

They've created a permanent value menu and if it were me, I'd take advantage of it with those DE-LICIOUS chocolate encrusted icecream cones. FOUR for $5.00. Which would thrill the kids to pieces because WHEN we splurge on ice cream cones, they have to SHARE and so do we.

Maybe I'll just do it for free????

Hello. My name is Rebecca and I have entirely too little time to be doing this but here goes anyway.

2009-02-27T06:20:00.000-08:00

I've done it.

For months and months I've wondered how I could try out making some revenue on blogging, or in the very least, participate in giveaways that require a blog post without filling up our families' memory-box blog with silly things not related at all to our family.

Today, I came across three opportunities that required blogging about a product and I thought, "Well, if ever I were to do it, now is the time!"

And so, Fluffernutter was born. A place where I will blog about giveaways, product reviews, allow advertisements.

And because I think it is sinful to post without photos, I will include photos of generic things like flowers and birds and so forth here-or the product that is being reviewed. And maybe, just maybe, I can score us a few goodies and some chinking change for our curriculum costs envelope! (Yep, I'm a Dave Ramsey fan! hehehe)
