My diet plan!!!

Ok so everyone has been asking me how i am losing weight so i thought i would take some time and tell ya :-)

I am counting calroies and exercizing :-)



I am doing it biggest loser style. I count calories.You take what you weigh times 7 and that is how many calories you should eat a day to lose weight. When i started i actually had a hard time eating 2000 calories. I eat ALOT of 100 calories packs and and it is not that they are low fat they are just portion controlled and i eat the cheetos and cheddar chex mix the most..LOL
For exercise i do the biggest loser videos 3x a week and 3x a week i walk for 45 min....The videos are cardio max and power sculpt. (pictured below)
Which is perfect because it helps tone your muscles so i am not so icky flabby as i lose weight :-)I like doing it and the more ppl are finding out the more support i am getting. Which is GREAT everyone needs support!!!!My biggest thing is i make it a game..ya know like how little calories can i eat this meal?? or how little cheese spread can i get on the cracker...OH and a little secret Laughing Cow cheese(also pictured below) the light is only 35 calories and it is soooo good i put it on bread,bagels and crackers and that is my cheese. I find it in my deli section and it is about 4.50 BUT its got 8 wedges in it and 1 wedge is 35 calories so if you don't want to use it all you can wrap it up and put it away BUT it is really good on WASA bread (pictured below) i found mine in the cracker isle..i have only had the multi grain and i eat it for lunch...i take a wedge of of the laughing cow and spread it between 2 crackers and put 2 slices of lunch meat...i eat chicken breast...i don't really like turkey...and that is my lunch that and a piece of fruit and water...AND it fills me up and its good.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month






Facts about Breast Cancer *Every two minutes a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer. *This year more than 211,000 new cases of breast cancer are expected in the United States. *One woman in eight who lives to age 85 will develop breast cancer during her lifetime. *Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in women between the ages of 40 and 55. *1,600 men are expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer this year and 400 are predicted to die. *Seventy percent of all breast cancers are found through breast self-exams. Not all lumps are detectable by touch. *We recommend regular mammograms and monthly breast self-exams. *Eight out of ten breast lumps are not cancerous. If you find a lump, don't panic-call your doctor for an appointment. *Mammography is a low-dose X-ray examination that can detect breast cancer up to two years before it is large enough to be felt. *When breast cancer is found early, the five-year survival rate is 96%. This is good news! Over 2 million breast cancer survivors are alive in America today
