Getting along....

You have no idea how many times I walked into the kitchen today and had to walk straight back out.  I mean, I always knew I ate when I was bored/stressed but I really didn't realise how much!  Today was definitely much easier and I'm really happy that I did so well with my targets.  I'm starting to look forward to my weigh in on Wednesday - mind you, the big test will be this three day weekend with Brian home.  We're as bad as each other so hopefully he can be as good as me because if he gets sweets I'll just cave :(  Still, we said no chocolate until my birthday so at least I don't have that temptation :D  Also, I didn't get much cardio today (other than about five or tens minutes of dancing around the living room with the kids XD)  But I know I'll be walking down the town over the weekend which is at least an hour of elevated heart rate so I'm not too worried.
Here's my totals for today:


Calories: 1810/2000 - whoo hoo!
Protein:   70g/60g
Carbs:    214g/275g - lowest carbs yet!
Fat:        77g/70g - lowets fat yet!

Water: 4/6
Fruit/Veg: 6/5
Calcium: 2/3
Tea: 0/5

Today was HARD >:(

So today was the first day ever that I actually threw out food.  I usually always eat what Aidan and/or Lily don't.  Today I made Aidan a grill cheese sandwich (I had an egg salad sandwich and an orange) and he had a quarter left and it was  SO HARD to not just pop it into my mouth and instead walk over the garbage and tip it in....urgh...
I'm a bit more surly today but that's probably because I really didn't get much sleep last night and I'm RAVENOUS by the time it gets to meal times.  But I'm coping.
Today was a toning day and I did twelve different exercises.  Some were easier than others - that hardest part was both the kids crawling all over me and I had to keep stopping to pull Lily down from the table/bookshelf/couch etc. (she climbs EVERYTHING!) - very frustrating.  Here's my totals for today:

Calories: 2030/2000
Protein:   67.5/60
Carbs:    251/275
Fat:        88.5/70

Water: 4/6
Fruit/Veg: 6/5
Calcium: 2/3
Tea: 1/5

Well, here I go again....

So I joined Tesco Diets today - I had a coupon for 4 weeks free - so far I really like it.  I'm feeling really motivated but you've heard that before XD
Here's my totals for the day:

Calories: 2095/2000

Carbs:    305.5/275
Fat:        77.5/70
