Weigh in #2

I tried to weigh in on Wednesday like I usually do, but had a glitch with my new, cheap scale. So I bagged it and weighed in today. And the numbers look like this:

Weight 148.2lbs, down from 150.6

Body fat 30.9 down from 31.6

Muscle mass 36.8 up from 36.5

I am happy with those numbers and will be really ecstatic when that body fat number gets in the 20's. All of my food prep last Sunday really made eating well easy this week. Anytime I was tempted to nosh on something because I was bored, I ate a hard boiled egg (just the white) or a 2 oz turkey burger. I bought some really fantastic hot sauce and have been putting it on everything. It has a little heat right off the bat but then it mellows and is almost a little sweet. It is called Frontera Jalapeno Hot Sauce. It costs about $3.69 at stores and though that seems a little pricey for 5 oz of hot sauce but I promise you, you don't need much to get the heat.

I have been either walking every day or doing a workout dvd. This has been easy since I have been home, the trick will be to incorporate it when I go back to work. I am going to have to do it right when I get home, or even walk around where I work. I have been doing weights as well.

Tomorrow's food prep will be boiling more eggs, making an egg and asparagus frittata, cooking some turkey sausage. Aldi was out of ground turkey so I went for the sausage links. Have never had them but at 150 calories and 10 grams of fat per link, they seemed like a good alternative. I also cut up a cantaloupe. I am more of a veggie than fruit girl, but I am trying to get more fruit in me. 

I have been reading a lot about sticking with a workout/eating well routine. With it being the New Year, everyone is on the band wagon to do better. I read that if you make a two month plan, you are more likely to stick with it. It becomes overwhelming when you try to change your entire lifestyle for the rest of your life. It is much more manageable when you break it down into smaller segments. You know what works best for you, make a plan you can stick with.

I am off to find some more recipes online. Mexican food sounds good right now so I am off to find some healthy recipes! I will let you know what I find.

Have a great weekend and thanks for reading!! I am up to 14 followers now. Thanks!!!
