Boring….

That is what this week has been. Not uneventful just boring in the diet part, the life style change part. For the first part of the week I had stomach problems but finally put two and two together and quit taking my fiber pills. With all the fresh veggies and an empty inside from last week I sure didn’t need any fiber. DUH!!! Oh well at least I figured that part out.

My eating has stabilized and am trying to do Debbi's 1-2-3-4-5 diet except for me it’s not the diet it’s just the numbers.

100 calorie snack 2 times a day, 300 calorie breakfast, 400 calorie lunch and 500 calorie dinner. Now that I have it memorized it’s going pretty good.

I have kept my calories very close to 1200-1300 calories a day and the fats, proteins and all in check. My mileage for walking wasn’t as high as some weeks, only about 8 miles this week but I did work out with my Wii three times so at least I’m moving. When school starts in two weeks I am going to go back to my floor exercises along with the Wii and walking. Since I’ll have less kids it’ll mean working a bit less hard so I’ll need it.

Tonight I was reading a local newspaper (well from the Twin Cities) and it’s State Fair time and they had an article called, Do the math: The calories add up. WOW was I amazed at what things totaled up too. Did you know that…..

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

8 to 10 (1/2- oz. each) 580 calories, 26 g fat, 6 miles to walk off.

PIZZA

5 oz. pepperoni, 404 calories, 17 g fat, 4 miles to walk off

CORN DOG

3.7 ounces (regular size), 350 calories, 25 g fat, 3.5 miles to walk off

ICE CREAM

Single scoop (vanilla or strawberry), 290 calories, 18 g fat, 3 miles to walk off

CHEESE CURDS

7 oz. (1 container), 1,140 calories, 81 g fat, 11.5 miles to walk off

FRENCH FRIES

25 medium, with ketchup, 310 calories, 14 g fat, 3 miles to walk off

MINI-DONUTS

12 (11/2- in. diameter), 720 calories, 37 g fat, 7 miles to walk off

FOOT-LONG HOT DOG

With bun, condiments, 540 calories, 31 g fat, 5.5 miles to walk off

ROASTED CORN-ON-THE-COB

1 large ear with 2 tsp. butter, 200 calories, 9 g fat, 2 miles to walk off

PORK CHOP ON STICK

4 ounces, 290 calories, 17 g fat, 3 miles to walk off

And to think the Mini-Donuts use to be my most favorite thing at the fair. I’d eat two bags if I could. Good think this year I was thinking not about my tummy but about my life.

Well it’s time for bed. Tomorrow is shopping for my daycare’s “End of Summer” Party. Then I have got to mow. Take care my friends and have a blessed weekend.

That is a lot of walkin...sure hope you have a good pair of them sneakers. I don't eat those kind of foods which is a good thing...I prefer to ride my bike instead of walkin :-)

Kalei's Best Friend said...

I don't think u have to count calories... what if u adopted the mediterranean way of eating? fish, veggies, grains, fruits? cut out the breads and donuts? sounds hard but it isn't... my daughter who lived in Italy has adopted that style, I have as well... btw Italians do not eat large amts. of pasta like one would think...
I think if u nix the donuts, hot dogs, french fries u will lose the weight faster...

Cheese curds? Really? I LOVE those things. I could eat an entire bag in one sitting.

I had a foot long hot dog and ran 6 miles today. I should be good. (Except I had a 32 ounces of Mt. Dew.)

Ha! I'm going to the State Fair tomorrow!! I AM planning to eat, I haven't been to the fair in like 10 years!

I just read on Charlies blog that you have 12 daycare kids? Holy cow! I don't have that many and with my kids here, they all play great together!

I wish you the greatest success on moving from fat and ugly to just ugly.

Just so you know, if you want to check out The Crap Blog Detective, well he's different to say the least. I refuse to get my dander up over a comment, it's just not worth it. But I did leave a comment on his blog, it says....
It was so hard to know if I should just ignore you or comment. First off you didn't hurt my feelings, second I don't blog for you so you need not stop by again, thirdly don't look if my looks offend you. Fouthly, I'd be careful who you pick on if I were you, just one day it could come back and bite you in the butt. Now take care and have a blessed afternoon.

Blogland has all types of people and I have to admit this is the first time I've met this kind.
Have a great day guys. God Bless!!!

Julie I too was visited by the above "blog bully". He/she sounds like a miserable person with nothing better to do then pick on others. Although I must say you are taking it better then I did when I read the comment on my blog.
Congrats on your weight loss. Stay strong, and don't let others hurt your feelings!

The Pathetic Person Blogger (aka The Crap Blog Detective) visited a blogger friend of mine, and was even more cruel to her than he/she was to you... if that is possible.

I can't imagine the kind of ugly life this person leads, that would cause them to spend this precious gift of life doing something so pathetic as routinely hurting others. I just don't get it!

I admire the way you handled this Pathetic Person... with grace. I hope when my turn comes to be visited by Pathetic Person, I can have a similar response (no promises, LOL!).

Bless you on your journey to health!

wow, after these last comments, I feel honored to have been visited by the crap blogger, so that I could be one of the special one's like yourself to have the opportunity to call him a looser. but alas, it is not really much of a special feeling, because he really is a looser, he can't even put together a detailed diatribe about why he hates the blogs he hates, he just doesn't care, and his own blog sucks too. I wish I could've been visited by someone who at least looked at my whole blog before he lost his attention span. He probably never goes to a museum either, nor does he go to a library, nor does he go outside, we shouldn't get so worked up over fools like him, because most likely, he's a miserable person, at least people like us always have things to do, and things to make us happy.
