Stuck


So as many of you have heard me complain, I have been stuck at 148 for 7 weeks now. It's ridiculous. I work out all the time, I work out hard, and I eat right. I've tried eating more, eating less, working out more, working out less, changing my workouts entirely. (Though Suzanne has a point, I just changed my workout last week, I need to give it more time).

Anyway I decided last night that I will let NOTHING get in my way. I am going to be at least in the 130's by the end of the year. So starting today this is my new diet (though I may have to swap out breakfast a few days a week for Fiber one cereal because I don't want to eat too many eggs):

Breakfast - 2 eggs, 1 piece of low cal toast, 1 glass of skim milk - 275 cals
Snack - 1 apple - 50 cals
Lunch - 3 homemade low cal low fat egg rolls - 250 cals
Snack - Veggies and fat free ranch dip - 150 cals
Dinner - Low fat with vegetables will vary - 600 - 700 cals
Workout - Burn 400 cals
Snack - Glass of skim milk - 90 cals
Optional - Fruit - 50 cals
Total - 1400 - 1550 cals for the day
I know I know some of you think that's not enough. But I've done everywhere from 1200 - 1900 per day with no results but there was a time when I did 1400 and things worked pretty well. So I'm going to try this for a week and see what happens.

If anyone has advice or ideas on what I should eat please don't hesitate to share!

Thanks. And PS I have the skinniest friends ever-- I just want to join you all!

On my workout I just am running more and doing way harder P90X stuff. Also I have recently started sprinting when I run and then slowing down and then sprinting again. Sometimes I walk in between. It really seems to work.

I'm getting business cards with a headshot on them... which one do you like better for a professional business card?

HIJACK

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

One Month Old

Tyler turned one month old on Friday! He has grown and changed a lot just in the last couple of weeks. It is so much fun to watch him now that he is smiling and holding his head all the way up and clasping his hands together--interlaced as if in prayer. He is the cutest baby (ok, so I'm biased). We've had a hard week though (make that almost two weeks--I've been trying to publish this post for 5 days). The other day he screamed for almost 24 hours straight. Luckily Jaime came over to show me how to help relieve his gas and he calmed down for a couple of hours. He has been up all night, up all day and just kind of hard to deal with. Of course I still love him, which is weird. Usually its hard to love someone who deprives you of sleep. :) Update: Like I said, I have been trying to publish this for almost a week--I have had literally no time between work and a screaming baby and laundry and dishes and cooking and cleaning but alas I think I now have 5 minutes! Anyway, Ty...
