Its been a long time since my last entry because no real interesting updates so far. The only thing I have changed in my diet is that I am eating more fruits and adding a little salad at every meal. Even dinner which I did not before, but have noticed that it makes you feel fuller so you eat less.
The workout routine is pretty much the same except I have added hand weights about 1 1/2 pound weights while i run/walk on the treadmill. Thats it so far! No new finds on the food front. When I find something I will post my thoughts on it!

Whole grain pringles

An update on my Pringle post. I did end up finding these whole grain pringles at Walmart. They are not available at Publix where I usually shop. They dont actually taste bad, but they are fattening. I prefer to have sun chips they taste better and not too salty. The whole grain Pringles actually taste pretty salty. The only thing you have to be careful when you are dieting is fat content on these whole grain products. These products claim to be healthy because 100% whole grain, but it is also important to read the whole nutrition label on the product. The Baked chips are actually good because the fat content is less, but does not mean you can eat the whole bag. LOL YOu have to watch out for the carbohydrate content then because most of those chips are not made 100% whole grain.

Betty Crocker whole grain muffin


Ever since I started my diet I like to incorporate everything whole grain. I had really been craving muffins so the other day at the store I spotted Betty Crocker 100% whole grain muffin mix. It was just want I wanted! I thought they would taste somewhat good, but it was actually horrible. It had a really bad after taste and it seemed like it was too sweet. So I guess if I really crave muffins I should just have the real thing just not the whole one maybe half to save fat and calories.

PIZZA=gross

I had pizza yesterday after a year...and this morning feel like crap. Now i remember why i stay away from that stuff. White processed flour is so disgusting makes you feel like bloated and just NOT good. Also its all carbohydrates and no protein at all which makes you over eat. Pizza is my husbands favorite food and after yesterday I cant figure out why?!?!?

Update

I went to the gym today and actually burned 600 calories in 57 minutes which is pretty good. Also did some leg weights....inner and outer thigh at 105 pounds, leg presses while sitting at 55 pounds and calves at 40 pounds. I usually do weights before cardio so muscles can get working..if do weights after cardio it makes me bulky. If I do it this way I keep lean. Also after cardio I did 50 push ups and 60 triceps dips.

I am running now at 7 miles per hour with a 2.5 incline. Also doing precor machine for about 35-40 minutes or 400 calories whichever comes first.
