back at it

This time Tom is going to exercise with me and I still have my faithful friend, Kay.
Kay started this in December. She said that I inspired her....haha, now that has been flipped. She is my inspiration! She has lost 60lbs just since December 26! She can run! Really run for a long time without stopping. I want to be like Kay.

So, today I'm back to counting calories. Here is my food for today:

Breakfast

Old Fashioned Quaker Oats 150 cals

Blueberries - Raw 65

Tea – w/Skimmed Milk 14

Domino Light Brown Sugar 30 cals

Lunch

Broccoli - Raw 50 cals

Tomato - med. Raw 20 cals

Chicken Breast Boneless Skinless 100 cals

Potatoes, Boiled, Cooked In Skin 68 cals

Dinner

2 Egg, Whole -Omelet w/ broccoli & cheese

390 cals

Snacks

Bananas 105 cals

Peach - 1 med. 40 cals

Chocolate Vanilla Swirls Pudding Snacks - Reduced Calorie
60 cals
TOTAL CALORES: 1,112 - little low.

Tom and I are starting the P90X workouts at home. According to them, at my current weight, I should eat around 2,000 calories and still lose weight. Not happening. It's so hard to eat enough calories when you eat only healthy food. On the other hand, it's so easy to eat 3,000 calories if you just eat processed junk food.
I will continue to meet Kay at the gym at least 3 days a week to work on running...ugh... I really hate running. But I really, really want to do a 5K this Fall. That is one of my goals. Kay and I will also lift weights at the gym. I know that I will have to up my calories to about 1600 in order to have my metabolism work right and burn fat if I plan to workout twice a day 3 days a week and once a day for 3 days a week, and have 1 day off.

Last night I took our measurements: neck, chest, waist at fattest part, waist at belly button, hips, upper arms, thighs, calves and weight. I also took our "before" pictures. I will NOT share those on here until we look much better. Like in a few months. Then I will put up the before and the now pics and let you marvel at our progress. HAH!

Oh, and Jess and Elizabeth are doing this too. They don't need to lose weight, just need to tighten up. I took pics of Jess, but Elizabeth wasn't ready last night. I'll get her tonight.

I don't promise to blog everyday, but I will blog at least once a week. So stay tuned!
