Guess what, guess what, guess what!!! I've lost 15 pounds!!! YAY!!! I am so happy/proud/encouraged/motivated etc!!! I don't just think I can make it to 50 pounds, I KNOW I CAN! Could I possibly use any more exclamation marks? Hehe! Yep, there I did. My Mom is coming to visit in 4 weeks and I hope to make it to 20 pounds lost by then so that I can share my reward, a spa pedicure, with her. That's my next mini goal. To lose at least 5 more pounds by the time she gets here. I'm so looking forward to my spa pedi. My feet are looking so dull. It's definitely flip flop weather here already. I mean, I have been wearing them for like the past 2 months already, but we're only April and today was 89 degrees out. Looks like we're in for a scorcher this summer. Blah! Don't think I'll be putting the flip flops away anytime soon.
I remembered to try doing my workout in reverse today. After warming up I started at a 7% incline and then worked my way back down. I think I actually like it better that way. I get all the hard work done first and then it just feels like a relief every time I get to go down another notch whereas before I would be dreading having to go up. I actually burned more calories today, 535, according to the treadmill. That's 10 more than yesterday. I don't think I've mentioned it before but the treadmill also calculates carbs expended. Today I burned almost 68 grams of carbs. I wonder if I even eat that many in a day. Speaking of eating, here's what I had today:
BREAKFAST:
-apple slices w/peanut butter (I'm kind of addicted right now)
LUNCH:
-leftover burrito bowl (refried beans, scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese & salsa)
-s.f. raspberry lemonade
DINNER:
-7 layer salad (iceberg, peas, cheddar, red onions, bacon, hard boiled egg & dressing)
-3 chicken tenders from Cane's (I scraped some of the breading off)
