UGH!!!!!
I just got back from shopping....the worst thing to shop for???
BRAS!
I finally found a bra that fits now and will fit even better 10-15 pounds from now.
So I bought the only 4 in stock different colors, plum, silver and white.
I threw my old, ill fitted, stretched out, some torn, safety pinned ones away. They were on sale and I got another purse that I like in a silver color for more formal attire. I now have that purse in Sage green, coral, white and cranberry and now in silver. I am using the cranberry one now it goes with my winter coat. It is hard to find purses this size, small!
I went to kohls to use my gift cards from christmas and ended up using my kohls charge card to save an extra 15% from my already on sale items. And got a $20 gift rewards to be used on march 16th-22nd. I will just buy new underware with the $20. Then save my gift cards to go shopping when I reach my goal weight at jeffs suggestion.
He is a good man.
WE went to friends house for dinner tonight. I ate some chicken because I did not know how much they were going to serve of protein. They had bean soup with pieces of ham I think....too many carbs so am glad that I ate the chicken. Ate alot like 2 cups of fresh fruit(straw berries, blue berrries, cantelope, honey dew melon, kiwi, grapes, pineapple) and tabouli and a small bowl of soup. After dinner I then ate 3 pieces of chocolates....They were delicious!
sigh that won't kill me!
I will try to get up early and go to the farmers market, then we will go to chris for gumbo and then I am getting my hair colored tomorrow at 1pm till 4 at the latest and then go to the gym. jasons deli for dinner and then maybe a play, or a movie. IT should reach 60 degrees, rain on sunday. (43 days AF)
Have a great weekend!

Bizi,

I think we are on the same schedule for hair coloring. I go Saturday at 2:00.

I love those colors, esp cranberry.


I am going shopping for bacon Saturday (hubby hates the smell of it in the microwave.) I wonder if it would be better in the oven or the top of the stove (but I hate cooking it on the top of the stove.
I am also going to buy some fake Krab because I do not have to cook it -ccan eat it out of the package.
We already have a huge pound or two of kale that I will put in the crock pot and some squash, chicken breast, lactaid cottage cheese and lettuce and cucumbers. Anyway, I got off track but I think that I am also going low carb for Saturday and Sunday.

I really really love that you bought hew bras for yourself. And that you bought some fun colors. Are they sports bras?
I feel that they are the most important thing that we wear and yet we neglect keeping up with them.
Take care.

Thanks mari!
these bras have a little decoration which is a first for me! not sports bras but should hold up well. they are not as seamless as my other bras were.
oh well. lets just say that I was tired of shopping for bras so took what worked with out thinking much. This is a vast improvement to what I was wearing!

decided to not go to the farmers market, lazy this morning and I did not sleep well last night I had 2 cups of coffee at our friends house. But I did read some of 2 days worth of newspapers.

Got my hair colored and went to the gym and used the arc trainer for an hour, I went really fast for the last 2 minutes heart rate was up to 162bpm!
I was beat!
Going to have dinner and go see a play. A comedy about someone who has a crappy job. My girl friend may go with us tonight.
I must quit snacking on these smoky almonds! they are so good.
yummy!
I am hungry and hubby is out with a friend. I need to call him and let him know that I am back from the gym.(before I eat all of these almonds!)
make it a great day.

Started today off with a pear and 2 cups of coffee.
Went to the diner for breakfast. Had 3 scrambled eggs with spinach and a side of brocolli and a side of black bean salsa that I put over the eggs. Delicious!
This is what I usually eat for breakfast on sunday mornings which is really lunch by the time we get there.
Hubby is going fishing today with a friend high today of 65 so it should be nice.
I am reading the news paper, takes me forever and then will think about the rest of my day. Just finished a nother cup of coffee, I use half and half in it with a liquid stevia sweetener, carmel flavored yum!
We used to use french vanilla creamer until I realized it had trans fat in it! Partially hydrogenated oils equals trans fat! And somewhere I heard that you could light it on fire...lol never tried that.
Make it a great day.

bullet proof coffee
 
Bizi,

I do not remember. Have you posted about Bullet Proof Coffee?

It is coffee with oil in the morning such as butter or coconut oil like this:
http://www.prevention.com/food/healt...-coffee-recipe

Quote:

Blend 1 c hot coffee with 1 Tbsp unsalted grass-fed butter and 1 Tbsp coconut oil for 10 seconds.
One could do it without the blender. I can see how using the blender with hot coffee could be a big mess.

See the rest of the article:
People who do high fat / low carb do this.
Also people who are eating paelolic diets are doing this.

That is alot of fat for one cup of coffee. Bet it is good though! I would still use my stevia.
I have been drinking alot more coffee these days.
Lazy day today, might start my taxes this afternoon dont have a client until 4pm.

Dinner tonight was beef spagetti whole wheat bow tie pasta, and a ceasar salad. It was good, I went easy on the pasta!
Went to planet fitness, Julie got there at 8 and I showed her around.
She ended up signing up. yeah!
She had taken a break from work to meet me. I think she will be working out at 3 am after the bar closes down. She is the manager at the tap room.
After that I did an hour of cardio, the hardest that I have worked out so far...ie I sweat the most. 30 minutes on the arc trainer than 30 minutes on the tred mill:
JOGGING for a bit then walking then jogging then walking.
a5-6 mph jog then walked 3.5-4mph depending how tired I was.
I did it! It did not hurt my neck!
I will be able to jog a 5k that is 3.2 miles....
