First of all, I find it REALLY rude that Katie and Heidi would dare to walk without me. :( I feel so betrayed! Hahaha! No, really...I died a little inside. I wish I were there SO MUCH!! I miss you guys like crazy.
Secondly, I'm not sure why I'm finding it so difficult to write a short blurp each day but for some reason it's been worked out better for me to do small batches every few days. I'll find my groove-I plomise! :)
Day 8-
I thought today was my back to normal day and it did start out really well. But by the time dinner rolled around, I wasn't feeling so hot and just wanted something small. Well, small in size but wowza on the calories. I used to crush thru at LEAST one roll of Ritz crackers without a second thought. They are so freaking yummy to me! But they are so fattening. :(
Day 9-
I went grocery shopping yesterday so I was excited at all of my new possibilities! I used to love eating Kix as a kid but haven't really given it much thought for a long time. But at the store, I was pretty surprised when I was looking at the nutrition facts on each of the cereal boxes. Some of the ones I love are really calorie heavy. But Kix...man...you can have two cups and still be less than the calories for one serving of fruit loops! They're a little bland but they fill you up so I'm okay with that. I forgot to grab some almond milk-Katie and Heidi have been talking about using it with their oatmeal and I really wanted to try it! Shoot!
My head cold turned into a chest cold and when my throat hurts, my go-to comfort meal isn't chicken noodle soup like normal people. I like egg drop soup. It was so soothing and really low on calories! I ate the entire pot of soup and it only came to 90 calories!
Day 10-
Ironically I felt almost back to normal sickness-wise but it was a weird eating day. No pics or calories counted today. We had back-to-back showings on our home (c'mon, baby, sell already!!) which meant I had to haul some buns and CLEAN like a mad woman, so breakfast was non-existant. While we drove around for an hour during that time, we ate out at good ol' Mickey-D's. I ate a dollar menu skanky cheeseburger (I love these) and three of Norrie's chicken nuggets and a handful of fries. Nothing really super crazy. But I was a little mad that I threw the calories on that since you could tell that everything had been sitting there for a while and wasn't super fresh. Dangit if I'm going to eat badly, I want it to be worth it in the taste department! :)

Heidi Day 9
Breakfast
scrambled eggs, cucumber slices
Lunch
oatmeal made with unsweetened almond milk, cinnamon, stevia, 1 tsp collagen, 1 tsp gelatin
orange
Snack
two slices of sprouted grain bread with butter and a little fruit spread
*headache*
Snack
Shakeology protein/nutrition shake made with unsweetened almond milk and ice
While I drank this in the kitchen to try and get rid of my headache I could hear my girls in the living room discover a spider and figure out how to dispose of it all on their own. The narrative was hilarious! So I just relaxed and listened to the show. Then Emily came in the kitchen and reenacted it for me :)
Dinner
oven-baked Tyson chicken nuggets dipped in ranch
Late-night Snack
Aargh!!! Why do I do this? I'm so irrational.
2 PB&J sandwiches on whole wheat bread, 3 packages fruit snacks, a few handfuls of goldfish
scrambled eggs, cucumber slices

Katie Day 9
Today was a rough one ladies. I still don't feel that great and I was super hungry. I haven't been grocery shopping this week and so I didn't have any fruit or really anything good to munch on, so I didn't munch and was kinda grouchy and just plain hungry all day. I went to pick up the Hubs at lunch time and was so hungry that I suggest that we eat at Subway. I thought a Tuna sandwich sounded good and I can have a 6 in Tuna without cheese for 480 calories - SO NOT WORTH IT! By the end of the day I was so hungry that I wanted to eat anything and everything so we went for a walk which helped burn anout 200 calories. So I didn't blow it today, but I didn't like dieting today due to the fact that I didn't eat smart and so my stomach wasn't very full although I ate up my calories today. Hopefully that makes sense. Im also struggling cause I have only lost like three pounds and I was hoping for a bigger drop in weight this first week. I know that slow and steady is the way to go and keep off the weight for good, but man I just want to be down to by ideal weight quickly so some days it is frustrating!
Here is my Food for today
Breakfast - 240
my new favorite Oatmeal with the Almond milk
Lunch - 480
Subway 6" Tuna
Dinner - 425
Chopped Chicken Salad from Sammy's
Snacks - 190
Skinny Cow Snack Pack - 120
1/2 Skinny Cow Icecream Sandwich - 70
Total Calories Consumed - 1335
Calories Burned by Exercise - 211
Not my best day, hopefully tomorrow is better and I sure hope I feel better and can get to the store for some groceries! Until Tomorrow ... Happy Dieting!

Shelley: Day 8- Speedy Post
I'm doing this from my phone so I'm going to keep it short and sweet. After such a great week last week I was ready to push today. I worked out hard. I did some weight lifting today, it was legs and shoulders. Then I ran, and ran. I'm just so sick of feeling fat. I just kept going. But my machine timed out so I had to put in another mile seperatly which is why there are two photos. Scratch that, I can't get it to work on my phone so I'll just say it. I ran 6.57 miles today keeping my heart rate in the 155ish area. I burned a little over 1,000 cals and it felt awesome!!
You know what else is awesome...Katie!!! Nice work!!!! It's so hard on a trip!!!
Today's Breakdown:

BMR CALC (1,760+1,001)-1,674= 1,087 Calorie Deficit today. I'll probably have a weight watchers Popsicle so subtract another 120 cals and it's still a great day!
Until tomorrow....
