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!

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.

I was going through old pictures for motivation to stay on track of my weight loss journey. I can’t believe I thought I was fat in this picture.

My weight loss journey is going well, slow but steady. It’d be nice to lose 10+ pounds a week like they do on The Biggest Loser.

I’ve changed my eating habits over the past few weeks and I feel much better now in terms of eating better and actually saving money. Since I’m always running late to work I don’t have time to eat breakfast so I take a bag of Chex Wheat or Cherrios and eat on my way to work. I used to go out for lunch almost everyday before but now I haven’t unless I meet up with Jason & Kim for lunch. My lunch usually consists of – yogurt with a banana or lean cuisine.

I refuse to give up Diet Coke… after all I’m a Diet Coke baby! Everyone has an addiction and this is my addiction.

I noticed that the healthy food I enjoy are snacks or fruits/veggies and those are perfect for breakfast or lunch, but when it comes to dinner… we’re not that creative in the kitchen to whip something up that’s healthy. We have plenty of grilled chicken but we need to learn more recipes so we’re not just eating plain grilled chicken for dinner every night.

Tyler and I will have to go to Borders with my laptop and look at some cooking books and type up some recipes.
