Change is Coming!

This past week has been some up and downs. Andy and I had put and offer in on a house and it was not accepted. That is okay then, Real Estate Karma tells me it wasn't the house for us. I wasn't feeling that great last week and found it hard to motivate myself to get to the gym. I did my strength days, because I knew if I didn't my session with the personal trainer would be brutal this week. The weekend was filled with looking at more houses, and running errands. I did a better job of planning food for the week and keeping on track with Power foods.

Sunday I made a 'lets clean out the freezer' dish. I love doing these when I can, especially when the freezer is getting packed. I had frozen beet greens a couple of weeks ago and wanted to use them. I had some Trader Joe's Chicken and apple sausage, onion, and sweet potato. First I sautéed the onions until they started to caramelize, then I added the sweet potato and continued to sauté until they were cooked through. I then added the chicken sausage to warm (it is full cooked when you buy it) and lastly added the beet greens until they were wilted. It was a simple but delicious dinner. I even brought it for lunch the next day!

Monday was my personal training session. As I was getting ready for work I noticed that my pants felt a little looser. Maybe this means it is time to take measurements again, see if I have lost any inches. My personal trainer kicked it into high gear this week. I did so many squats....I wish I had kept count!

Still down overall!

Wednesday's weigh in came around and I was up a pound. Not a huge setback but frustrating since I have been good at not snacking on all the junk food at work! But I am feeling stronger at the gym and feeling better about myself so, kicking into high gear to drop some weight next week!
