Shelley: Day 22

PHOTO: This is what a Papa Murphy's DeLITE Pepperoni Pizza looks like. Yummy, and I didn't miss the extra crust at all!

It's Day 22 and I'm feeling great! Will and I made a trip to Costco today and there weren't really any samples so no real temptation. I picked up some fruit and veg to keep us eating well and a few toys as well.

We went to dinner with the Katie and crew at our favorite Mongolian BBQ place. Lots of veggies and zero noodles for me! I wish I could say I had something more interesting but that's it for today. I'm definitely looking forward to reading Kaisi's post because on vacations there is always plenty of great stuff to blog about.

Today's Food Summary:

Breakfast:

A partial slice of deLITE Pepperoni Pizza (160cal)

Snack:

An Organic, low sodium, low cal Tortilla Soup (200cal)

Lunch:

Four Adele's Chicken Meatballs and 1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (320cal)

Snack:

Skipped this because I knew what was coming with din din.

Dinner:

Mongolian BBQ, lots of veg, no noodles (500cal)

Snack:

15g of Guittard Chocolate Chips (70cal)

BMR CALC: 1700-1550=150 Deficit (I added 300cal for misc snitches of my little guy's food.)

(For an explanation please see Shelley: Day 1 Post) Also, I updated my BMR from 1760 to 1700. As I lose weight that number will continue to fall.

PS. I want to mention that I have been estimating pretty high on my snitching total and if I am unsure of exactly how many calories are in something I always estimate high as well. So Katie, if you're reading this, ignore my math on the Mongolian BBQ, I just do it for my own reference.

If you look at my post I calculated the same amount for the BBQ :) I was curious as to what you were going to calculate. Apparently great minds think alike!

Katie's Story

Well this is going to be exciting and I am excited to begin my blogging and also my weight loss adventure! I'm Katie and am the very proud mother of an adorable little boy! I love being a mommy and I do believe that I have one of the cutest little guys in ALL the universe! Growing up I was a Ballet dancer and therefore I never really had to worry about my weight. I say that loosely because I was always dieting and not eating and dancing. So I was always skinny. Therefore I have never really been a healthy dieter nor have I ever enjoyed exercising because to me Ballet isn't exercise its just fun! I would do Ballet now but there is NO WAY I am ever putting toe shoes on again n0t to mention a leotard and tights :) When Shelley and I discussed doing The Biggest Loser I was excited and nervous as I have in the past 5 years failed at losing weight and working out. However I have hope that this time it just might work as I now have a blog and others watching and I have always been fairly competitive and so here goes nothing! Wish me luck! I sure hope I am a gracious winner :)

UPDATE: I am now a lucky mother of 2 adorable kiddos! My daughter was recently born and it is time for me to get back on the diet wagon. So here we go again!!

Kaisi's Story

Hi, my name is Kaisi Grow. I have never had to write a profile about my weight journey so I am not really sure where to begin... I guess I will just start where everyone does. I enjoy long walks on the beach, but lately it seems they have turned into short winded waddles. I am just kidding...but seriously I have never really been good at dieting or exercising because frankly I never stick to it, I am all talk. So when Shelly & Katie asked me to do the "Biggest Looser" with them I though what a great way to be forced into sticking to something rather than having it stick to me!. I recently had a baby girl that we named Sadie. When I was pregnant I gained roughly 38-39lbs, so you can imagine my surprise when Sadie came out weighing only 7lbs 11oz. My mind immediately went to all the food I chowed down over the last 9 months. Muffin tops are my favorite, but I hadn't taken that "you are what you eat" thing seriously. I knew it was time for a major rebound, but have not had the moral support or peer pressure until now!. December 1st is my deadline and I am hoping to hit my goal of 135lbs! I am exited to take you along the way, so please hang in there with me through my mood swings and bitter days because I know by cutting down on my Diet Coke there are bound to be some!
