Widdlecuddles Week 2

[Widdlecuddles]

Today begins week 2 of the BL Challenge. Food wise last week was good. The only exercise I did was walking, which isn't a bad thing, but I need to step it up a little.
Stepped on the scale this morning for my official weigh-in and for week one... I lost 11 pounds!!!!!
I think one thing that is really helping me is I am being diligent about writing down exactly what I eat.
Hubby is doing well too!! For his 1st week back on weight watchers he lost 16.5 pounds!!!
And the good thing for me is - after one week I am still excited about this!

Hope everything is going well for everyone!

Excellant! Keep up the good work!!!!
This really makes me miss the show. I loved seeing those dramatic results. I dont' expect results like that for myself, but it's very motivating and inspiring to hear about and see others being so successful.

I following the plan in the Biggest Loser diet book.
Breakfast
1/2 protein
1 whole grain
1 fruit

Snack
1/2 protein
1 Fruit

Lunch
1 Protein
1/2 Whole Grain
1 Vegetable

Snack
1/2 Protein
1 Fruit

Dinner
1/2 Protein
1/2 Whole Grain
2 Vegetables

and used 200 extra calories per day for usually fat free sugar free pudding and cool whip free or a weight watchers ice cream bar or some kind of desert at night.

At my weight the book says I should eat 2100 calories. I couldn't eat that much food. Most days I was around 1600.
I didn't have a calorie book until the end of the week, but I did sit down and figure out my calories for all week after I bought it.

I am going to up my exercise this week so I will also add some calories.

Today's Thursday and finally the first day I got up early enough to do a full exercise routine and not have the rush to get ready for work. It's hard doing exercises by myself cause I don't push myself enough.
Walking lunges are going to be the death of me I think LOL
Still on track for the food part. I am really happy about that. they are having a bake sale here at work today and I purposely didn't bring any money so I wouldn't be tempted.
Wish it wasn't raining out. would love to go out and walk for lunch.... but if I was walking I couldn't sday hi to you all HI!!!
Hope everyone is having a great day!
