Kaisi: Day 5

Hi! Tonight is going to be quick.... I am tired!! My mom was coming into town today to help me get things ready for Sadie's Birthday Party next weekend and not knowing what we would do for lunch/dinner had me eating light in the morning to save my calories!. Then I went for a walk trying to burn more, just in case we ended up going out I wanted to have all the calories available to me that I could. We ended up making a list of everything we needed and were crazy busy until about 8:30 tonight. We grabbed subway along the way and by the time she left I thought to myself, I should have dinner, but I am just so tired I almost didn't care. I made fajitas anyways which will be good to have leftovers tomorrow afternoon/evening. So here are my stats....

Breakfast: 200 Calories
Slim Fast w/ fat free milk

Snack: 90 Calories
Carb Smart Tortilla

Lunch: 626 Calories
Footlong turkey and ham flatbread with MUSTARD ( I know... MUSTARD! I am trying to get off mayo and mustard is 0 calories, so I thought I would give it a go. What a weird change!) Also...(this was split up in two lunches... kinda. 1/2 at 12:30 ish and the other at 3:00ish.)

Dinner: 362 Calories
Chicken Fajitas on carb smart tortilla w/ avocado.

Total Calories: 1278 Calories

Workout: 436 Calories (give or take a few. I didn't time my walking this afternoon, just a rough estimate)
Walking, walking more and more and more..... LOTS of walking today!!

Well, I'm off to bed. Until tomorrow!!

P.S. A little side note I want to remember that I was thinking this morning... I have weighed myself every morning since this diet began (I know, bad idea) and I haven't even lost a pound yet. It kills me that I haven't mentally, but at the same time I know I have done so much muscle work it's probably that I can't just go off weight. I should have measured. I was thinking throughout the day that it's funny when you go off your diet for 5-7 days you hope you haven't put on weight, but then when you go back on your diet you can get upset it isn't coming off quickly. Anyways, I am at .8lb lost so to curb my mental lashing hopefully tomorrow will be the big break through I have been hoping for the last 2 days. Cross you're fingers!! :)

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!
