Whew… already not so good at this whole blogging thing. I was going to aim for blogging everyday or every other… whoops!
Anyways, on to it. I had a fabulous week. I joined the Y right after Memorial Day for their summer membership that runs Memorial Day to Labor Day. I began working out on June 1st. My personal goal for the month was to get to the gym 20 out of the 30 days in June. Today, I am at 18 days. So, I will go tonight since I take a Kettlebell class on Monday nights and Tuesdays I usually play softball for a co-ed league that I am in, but I just realized that since it’s the week of the 4th, we don’t have our game tomorrow. I think I might just end up rollerblading or something because I spent the last FIVE days at the gym. Which is good… but I need a little change. 
So, I will hit my 20 days for the month – go me!
I went to my WW meeting on Friday and I lost 4.4 pounds – well, I guess I’m going the right direction! -4.4 is good!
So, how did I lose 4.4 this week…? Honestly – just working out. I did make better food decisions, but I was not following the WW plan – speaking of WW, I am cancelling my membership, I actually did it this morning. No use in paying $40 a month when I’m not even following plan! So, I will stick to my own plan… or as I feel still, lack there of. I don’t want to do a crazy plan, I know I will never stick with a crazy plan. That’s why I’m just trying to make better food choices, eat “bad” foods in moderation, but eat them none the less IF I want them. We’ll see how it goes. But apparently, so far, so good.
Anyways peeps, I’m out. I’m at work… should probably find something productive and WORK related to do.
Have an amazing day!

I totally wanted to dedicate today’s post to showing you ALL THE PICTURES from this weekend!!! OMG – you are going to die when you see all of this food (hint: my dinner is looking at me…AGAIN!) Have any of you been to a Vietnamese wedding reception before? INSANELY YUMMNESS FOOD! Seriously, it was SO GOOD!
But, tis Monday which means Challenge Update Day…so pictures will have to wait until tomorrow (ha, I know, I’m a tease!)
Challenge Update
Starting Weight: 150lbs
Goal Weight: 140lbs
Current Weight: 145lbs (no change)
well well well, yep – I guess it’s okay to stay the same this week since I’ve had quite a first month of loss (5lbs in the first month of the challenge) AND since I had a pretty intense Saturday full of eating!
How are YOU doing? Do you realize we have a little over 4 weeks left in this challenge. Are you half way to your goal? If not, you have some serious dedication to put in…or be prepared to give away $50 of your hard earned moolah! Leave a comment with your update… and be sure to stop over and check in with Annabel @ Feed Me I’m Cranky!
This is the end of the post but you know me, gotta throw in some a teaser photo:
See ya bloggin’ buddings tomorrow!

Food is on my mind. Why? Because I eat it. A lot. Seriously. I do eat a lot. Carlos is convinced I eat more than him because I eat all the time! Lots of little things, normally never a huge meal.
I thought I’d dedicate a post to pictures of some of my favorites…sit back, scroll through and enjoy!
Just remember though, Monday is challenge update day - you DO NOT GET THE WEEKEND OFF from being healthy. This is the rest of your life. This is not a job.
English muffin, Boca burger
& cheese = yummy!
ooohhh…Jennie-O Turkey Franks! Splurge and have 2 cuz its only 70 calories each!
Who would have thought calorie free would taste good?!
Oatmeal & psyllium husk – my morning ritual!
A good start to so many meals!
Every day is a day for soup!
Frozen meals, yep, still my friend!
I heart egg beaters! I heart toast!
Can one live off hummus alone? Can I try?
Clif bars, ya’ll know these are good!
Popchips, one word: AMAZING!!!
I dream of strawberry’s!
At least one of each, every day. I swear!
If I see this flavor in the store, I buy THEM ALL!
Sweet potato fries, does a body good!
Popcorn, my first love. Ask my mom!
Spaghetti squash & meat sauce
Are you kidding me? Puhlease, try these!
ooohhh….really can’t live without Special K Cereal w/ Strawberry’s!
Salad with chicken & grapes, perfect combination!
I know I am missing so many more of my favorites! You should leave a comment with your favorite healthy snack or meal so I can try it. Or, link to a recipe!
A day of celebration
On Saturday, Carlos and I have the honor of attending our good friends, Sandy & Tuyen wedding. I have known Sandy for probably 6 years…
I’m a little nervous because I am the personal attendant and it will be a very traditional Vietnamese wedding, beginning early in the morning. I have to be at Sandy’s house at 7:30am on Saturday. She said they have a family get together in the morning, sort of like a bridal shower, then everyone goes to Mass. Then the actual wedding ceremony, followed by a reception and after the reception downtown. I have 3 dresses to wear! One is a very traditional, beautiful beautiful outfit, the other two (1 for the reception & 1 for downtown) are more what you would find in the malls here in the U.S.
Stay tuned for a ton of pictures!!! Have a great weekend and don’t forget to leave a comment with your favorite healthy food for me to try!
