Breakfast oF Champs...and well a lunch too day 11

SO i was getting board of my breakfast and was googling/blogging around and found a great NEW breakfast idea

(okay well new to me any way!)
and i am sure you are all sick of hearing about the plain breakfast i eat everyday..I am.



here is a small example of what they have to offer and how good it actually is for you.

which is great since i have to and WANT to count my calories this cereal will help me switch it up a bit!

YAHOO go cereal!!!!
And good news if my Kids can make it themselves online...that is more incentive for them to eat HEALTHY cereal..they wont even know!

(yes i understand i DO only by good snacks and food for the kids just like myself but they are not a HUGE fan of it...this will make it more KID friendly if ya know what i mean)



As for SOme Good FOODs i made Yesterday..

steamed veggies...small   size of wild rice (maybe 2 spoon fulls) and a nice 1/2 piece of salmon
perfecto! ( I EVEN DID THIS MYSELF!!)



farewell to my idea of frozen lunch yesterday thank you SPROUTS for letting me be creative!


CHEERS!
happy Wednesday!

 Have you tried that cereal before?? what is YOUR cereal of choice?

* i love Oats  cereal lol...I not sure why but not a big fan of sugar cereal..

Oh what Mess welcome Day 10

...I don't know what is worse...

Running out the door this AM...forgetting my deodorant or forgetting to brush my teeth...
?
I am going to die....I have dodged just about every face contact this morning waiting for lunch so I can head on over to the nearest store and purchase a toothbrush..toothpaste...and deodorant.

Amazing though how i had time to turn on the coffee maker..

(funny how it worked out...now my breath is twice as bad...HATING IT!)

After I freshen up I will enjoy A perfect proportion of


yes....I was having a tough time with just eating CHicken Salad and what not so I am putting together all your Bloggers recipe's and for the mean time....sticking to what I know is the right amount for me (well right now at least)

PHEWww...and all that AWESOME chicken my husbando Made I will enjoy for dinners and well some lunches too.


My weigh in is TOMORROW....Holding my breath I feel I did good this week...I don't weigh myself at home because i don't want to become obsessed with the scale.



Okay be honest...Have you forgot to brush your teeth in AM before? whats the worst thing you forgot to do?

*today was the worst but yesterday i was driving to work and still had one kid in the car lol! I had to turn around luckly it was close to school still!

I have BEEN a mess with learning this stuff and lets just say thanks to my husband he has been a great HELP.
(prepares my lunch for me ahead of time...this is for the whole week)
not sure if I really want chicken the whole week...but who can complain ...he is really helping with it!

SInce HE was the only help this week...because I know i was no help to myself.

this time change this AM was killer!!!

I know i need to get my hair done...REALLY BAD!

here is me hiding my roots...by actually doing my hair.

(dont mind the double little chin....that is part of this project)


This was my achievement this AM


there is NO hiding my roots there!


Oh well I am hoping to get an appointment Saturday... I was going to wait until I loose 10 lbs but by that time I am sure my husbando would have left me.

This MOrning I was able to EAT

and for snack i found myself some good old school lunch favorites..

applesauce and crackers


oh boy!
I will be blog hopping and writing down all the goods i see now that i am in charge of my jenny diet!

DAY aTE.

ONLY had to skip day Seven Because ....well i will let you sEE...

It started off as one of those days...

RUNNING late as USUAL...so after tossing my kiddos out of the caR, I hurried into work..

ONly TO realize that I have to Leave Half day for my kiddo's Girl scouts.

 

i WALKED Into a MESS.. well lets just say A LOT of work for a small amount of time.



Since...I didn't get to eat breakfast I shoved a light and fit yogurt down my throat so i can get all this stuff done...

 I looked at the Clock...
DARN! I have to get out of here!!! I still didn't have anything I needed for the meeting SO I figured I can run through Joannes and Grab some stuff...until I found the line.

Who the HECK is shopping at Joannes in the middle of the day???? REALLY there was like 30 people in LINE!
(to be honest..i felt like pushing them all out of the way I only had 30 minutes now to get across town..waiting was not in my timeline. (okay i wouldn't push the kid))

Phew made it out with 15 minutes to go across town... (which is normally 45 min)

Darn I forgot again...to eat LUNCH!

so i ate it in the car lol....the people were SO starring when i was taking HUGE bites lol and having spinach hanging from my mouth ..oh well at least it was healthy.


I arrived. We had fun...I went to leave to pick up kiddo number two and then i had my first "REAL" weigh in at Jenny Craig...

But i was not going to drive all the way home then back so we waited outside in the parking lot..

MY daughter found some unique things shoved in the car such as...

these snoopy socks from our trip to Arrowhead during Christmas.
(okay...i do YES need to go through my car asap)


We finally got out and as i Shoved some more food in my mouth (2 cracker sandwiches..which i was not sure when they were left in the car..since they are processed i didnt care and they were wrapped lol) I went in with my head held HIGH and braced for the worst...


BUT LEFT with the BEST i lost 5 lbs in the first week!


YAHOO!

after that day...I went home and quickly fell asleep!

DO you ever HAve CRAZy days where you have to eat in your car??? What is the weirdest Thing YOU ate in YOUR Car?


*the chicken salad yesterday...I would just drive and stick my fork in it lol hoping to get the lettuce!

hahahh have a great day!

Day 6... Jenny I found MY PROBLEM!

It wasn't until I actually LEFT the house/office and had my first weekend with "Jenny" to make me realized that I LOVE food!
and I am a STRESS eater!

First off Saturday I woke up fine...

Felt GREAT...then I had a stressful situation happen (long story..and sure the person would not like for me to blog about it lol!)
ANyWHo I wanted CHIPS, BIG ICE BLENDED MOCHA, something....

and when i went to reach for it...I caught myself ah ha I am a

STRESS (emotional) EATER!
It was hard...I really mean HARD! If it weren't for me eating TWO of the ANYTIME Bars (which are chocolate and peanut butter flavor...I would have failed)

But I made it through and to say i lost 3 lbs already!

NEXT day..SUNDAY

we all headed out to Disneyland..
on the way out we stopped by MC DONALD'S
(real mean of my husband right!)

Here came my moment of truth....WHat will I do!
thank GOd i had this cheat sheet...



and i was able to order this YUMMY grilled Chicken with Bacon Ranch (minus the ranch) salad Yummmm

(I cut up the chicken small so it would add flavor to the whole salad since i didn't have any dressing)

This actually filled me up for a LONG time!!

UNTIL i faced my next battle..

(how can you not want one ...it was hot out and that ice cream was just staring at me as my kiddo was taking a nice big bite off the ear..)
ahhhh Big Pink greatness!


So as my family taunted me I ate SLOWLY my Air POP CORN!

and my cravings passed me by. 


I am just hoping that next weekend is not as tempting!

CHEERS!
Happy Tuesday!


*What is your down fall??? ANything Make YOU want to Grab it out of someone elses hands and shove it in your face lol??

* that darn mickey ice cream...I think I had a dream about it later that night ; )
