Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

2/13/12- Food Journal

Well I was on my own for the day.  This is always the Mr's time of year for random just after the new year projects at work so he worked out this morning and is eating dinner at work.  His looked so good I decided to make it for myself.  Let's dig in shall we?

For breakfast I had a bowl of Special K Blueberry cereal and scrambled eggs (2 whites, 1 egg) with caramelized onions and parmesan cheese.  It held me a good long time!


For lunch I had my tuna fish lettuce wraps (2 tbsp Miracle Whip Light & scallions) with raw veggies and 1/2 tbsp of dip.  A golden delicious apple with apple dip, fruit salad (grapes, watermelon, cantaloupe and pineapple) and a Trader Joe's apple cereal bar.  Iced tea to drink, of course.  I told you, lunch is pretty standard.  :-)


Dinner was leftover beef roast tacos with enchilada sauce and a serving of sharp cheese with a side of brussels sprout and onions.  Iced tea in the background.


I'd show you my snack but that's coming tomorrow so I can't show you!  Tune in tomorrow for a decadent little treat that fits into well planned calories.

  3. Looks delicious! It's so interesting seeing what real people eat during their weight loss. And I love the fact that you eat real meals, and not e.g. Protein bars. I also like your photograps, thank you! :)

  4. Oh, I wondered how the Brussels sprouts experiment turned out. Guess you liked them, since they are still on the menu. I agree with the others, your meals look so appetizing!
