Getting Off the Couch

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

Our futon/couch is falling apart. Soon enough we’ll be sitting on the floor on the mattress. This means we need to buy a new couch but it won’t be until after we buy a house this summer. As they say, “Get off the couch” to exercise and lose weight… I guess it’s a good thing it’s falling apart.

Tonight for dinner we made tortilla pizzas…

- 99% Fat Free Tortilla (120 calories)
- Prego Spaghetti Sauce (20 calories)
- Low Sodium Mozzarella cheese (50 calories)
- 100% Pineapple Tidbits (20 calories)
Total: 210 calories

We need to go grocery shopping this weekend to stock our fridge and make it colorful with veggies & fruits! I’ve lost some pounds this week. I know I forgot to update my weight chart page and I will this week.

Citrus Orange Trees to Steamfresh

On Friday during lunch hour I finally picked up the CD with our wedding photos! In the area I saw a lot of beautiful citrus orange trees! They are amazingly beautiful and I made Tyler promise me we’ll have one (or more!) in our backyard one day.

I decided to cancel my subscription with WeightWatchers since I know how the points work and can do it without subscribing online. Tyler and I decided it’d be best to use that money instead towards going to 24 hour fitness gym. We went to the gym this morning and we spoke with a representative to sign up and he brought up The Biggest Loser. I informed him I was going to go to casting call on March 7th. He excitedly told me that he wanted me to credit them if I make the show and I was easily amused by that.

Tonight for dinner Tyler and I tried Birds Eye Steamfresh (Shrimp Alfredo) which is amazing not having to cook it and just put it in the microwave for 12 minutes and have a healthy meal ready for you! It tasted good but not delicious if that even makes sense. We’ll have to try more meals as their website provides yummy recipes!

Should I try for The Biggest Loser?

Monday, February 16th, 2009

I recently decided to do WeightWatchers Online. I find it extremely helpful knowing I can do this for life. It has helped me in the past and unfortunately I didn’t stick to it. This better and WILL be the last time.

I am in love with The Biggest Loser and it is so inspiring! Lately I’ve been thinking about going to the casting call in Phoenix on March 7th. I think it’d be better to audition with a teammate rather than myself because they pick teams. I know they’re open to individuals too but I think it’d be nice to go with someone.

Anyone in Phoenix interested to go with me? Tyler’s not fat so he can’t go on the show with me. I know someone at work that might be interested but I can’t just bluntly ask this person. It’s like telling them that they need to go on the show.

I’m going to TRY and wake up at 6AM to work out before going to work and I highly doubt I will get out of bed to do so….which means I’ll have to go after work. I think morning work outs are best.
