Slight set back.........
After doing EXCELLENT all day,my dh calls me and tells me that his boss is ordering pizza and having us over for supper!!!!!!
So......The evening was pretty junky. I had 2 pieces of pizza,3-4 barbeque wings,some caramel corn,a few chips,about 1/2 a root beer (can),2 pop tarts and I think that's it.
It could have been MUCH worse but it could have been SO much better! And of course my weight is up today!
The first part of y day WAS great though! I did have an E meal for breakfast and then a snack of pineapple and strawberries later that might have put me a TINY bit over the carb limit but then again,maybe not. It was only a SMALL amount of pineapple though. I also had a FP lunch so I bet that helped.

Yesterday's weight- 195.8
Today's weight- 197.6
Oh well! I am GOING to have those times where I pretty much HAVE to go off plan. There is NO way that I could not eat. They don't have use over very often and there were NO other options like salads etc. So I am not too upset.
I bet the scales will be down again tomorrow!! I am doing great today!

I am very happy with my first day. I am going to have another excellent day today! I felt WONDERFUL all day yesterday and ate so many delicious foods! If you have not tried the cottage berry fluff yet,you HAVE TO! It is so delicious! My husband had almost a whole QUART of a cookies and cream milk shake that I made him (OH! I did have the last bite out of the blender of THAT! I always do! LOL) and I had my berry fluff. I did not feel deprived at ALL!
I have a lot of outside work to do today so I will be getting even MORE exercise than my workout.
Off to eat breakfast now and start drinking!! I am super excited about the day!

We have had company!
Our friends were here visiting for two weeks. I did really good until the last few days and then did way too much snacking etc. My weight was 193 before those last couple days but this morning??????AFTER those last couple of days?????? Well,I was not going to post what it is but if I want to be completely REAL that wouldn't be right!
Today's weight???????
198 !!
That CAN'T be real weight gain!!!!!!!
I am more determined than ever to quit messing around. I will be
23 weeks
on Wednesday!!!!
I am getting WAY too close to 200 and I never EVER want to see that number again! I am officially (and SERIOUSLY THIS TIME! LOL) going to be super strict and healthy with my eating and see if I can get my weight back down to my starting weight of 187. Maybe I won't. As I have said many times before,I won't starve myself to reach that goal. But I REALLY hope to reach it by exercising/drinking and eating HEALTHY!
I have a midwife appt in a couple of weeks.......I haven't actually MADE the appt yet but it will be ATLEAST 2 weeks. My goal is to be back down to 187 by then! I also want to track everything I eat EVERYDAY until that appointment. That is going to be very hard for me as I am just not good at it LOL but I am going to DO IT! *JUST* until that appointment! It really helps me to watch what is put in my mouth.
I am going to be doing a pregnancy/modified version of their FP 2 week cycle. I am going to be cutting back the calories/fat and adding some more FP's into my diet. Not eating late at night,drinking lots of fluids,getting good sleep and exercising!!
I am going to go by how I FEEL. If I feel fantastic,I am going to assume that I am getting enough nutrition. IIf I am feeling weak at all or not good in any way I will up things.
That is the plan! I am EXCITED!
I REALLY hope that tomorrow shows a big drop in that 198 number!!!!!! That is HORRIBLE! That HAS to be water retention from all of the sugar I ate etc. We will see tomorrow!

Thrilled !
After reading about proper squatting for the last 30 minutes I did a squat to see if my squatting was proper,if I COULD do a proper one etc.
It was perfect! My shins are vertical and my heels flat on the ground and I can easily do it! A small thing to be happy about but I am! :)

Pregnancy starting weight....187
Today..........193.2
I cheated last night! I had a Hershey's bar,a cup of cappuccino and 2 cups of Fruit Loops. It was delicious and I was happy to not only see that my weight didn't go UP,but it actually went down! :)
I have been doing great with exericise. There has been one day this week that I only did HALF of my planned exercise but other than that,I have done it all!
Yesterday we did "Core Rythmys". It is a very fun dance workout. About 40 minutes. It is NOT modest. Another one that I don't do with my boys around! :) It is a good workout though! Not SUPER intense but good and FUN too!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT09bryb0C4
We are having a cookout tonight with the children for family night. Hot dogs,baked beans,chips and roasted marshmallows. I won't be cheating though! :)
I WILL be cheating on date night though! (Tomorrow night) Actually,you know what? I am not going to call it cheating. Cheating implies that I am going against the "rules" and I am not! :) My "rules" are NOT to have NO sugar etc. but to eat it in moderation. So I am not going to call planned indulging CHEATING :).
I am feeling GREAT! I have absolutely no complaints at this point about anything pregnancy related! I just feel wonderful and it feels great to be eating so healthy and still keeping up with my workouts!
I have really been working hard on squatting MORE in the last year. I do tons of all different kinds of squats in my workouts but I have also been working squatting into my regular everyday life. It really gets me in the garden!!!!!! I get a GREAT workout when I squat to do everything! WOW!
Something I recently read bout squatting is that your heels should be on the ground.
http://stronglifts.com/7-ways-to-keep-your-heels-on-the-floor-on-squats/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squatting_position
Somehow I had missed that! I can tell that I HAD been getting on my toes when squatting down in regular,everyday life! I am not doing that now and there is quite a bit of difference!
Well,that's all for now!

Hi! 21 weeks!
I am still here!
Starting weight 187
My weight this morning?
Hoping that it IS baby weight and nothing bad. I have NOT been cheating though so that makes me happy!
I do not want to become obsessive about this weight thing. I don't want to spend the rest of my pregnancy being extremely worried about how much I gain. I mean,I want to worry about it,eat healthy and exercise but beyond that,I want to just let it go.
I am not overeating either and feel good about the amount of E/S meals that I am eating. I have approx 1 E meal a day. The rest are S. I don't at all feel that I am eating too many snacks or THM desserts either. I am drinking plenty of water and getting great exercise. I could use some more sleep! :)
I have been craving sweets much less and craving savory food much more. DON'T get me wrong! I still love my sweets!!!!!!!! LOL But I do crave them less. Last night I had cheese curds and a few strawberries (With a lil bit of Redi-Whip) for a snack instead of eating Lucky Charms like I wanted to! LOL It was delicious and it feels so good to know that I fed my body (and baby!) something HEALTHY instead of JUNK that just satisfied my mouth!
Speaking of baby........I am laying here on my bed,on my belly and the baby is moving all over! The movement is REALLY picking up now and that is so exciting!!!!!
I am going to try and get a belly picture loaded later. It is getting nice and round! :) I love this stage in pregnancy!
Well,off I go. I am hungry!
