I have a dilemma. Kind of. So yesterday I started a 21 day challenge to get myself back on track. Day 1 was successful! Hooray! Today is day 2.

Congrats on doing so well! :) If you're going to list your meals now, I'll have to come by and snoop more often- get some ideas for myself! :P I'm trying to get back into morning workouts...

My sticker chart has been going well- I have a whole 2 stickers on it.. one is red unfortunately. I think if I find a good prominent place to hang it up, it will be effective.

@tobiasmom- Yup! I baked a chocolate cake a while ago, and the layers domed up so much in the oven I had a LOT leftover when I leveled the tops to stack the layers.

05/21/2011 Woke up around 2:30 this morning- ate some cake balls from the freezer and a couple pieces of chocolate.

Don't have much to say- just wanted to stop by and say WOO-HOO! for sticking with it! It is so much easier to give up (I should know, after my recent escapades..) but you keep plugging along.

Well. I have been meaning to come check in, but I feel so overwhelmed because I haven't been checking in, that I couldn't make myself.

I started shovelgloving about 3 weeks ago. I have an 8-pound sledgehammer- the only one the hardware store had.

I take a daily multivitamin- for the iron and calcium. I'm too lazy to take 2 pills, so I take a multi! :P I don't eat much meat so I tend towards anemia, and I have never been a dairy person, not getting much calcium in my diet. After breaking my hand in a way that shouldn't happen, I started getti...

I think this is a question that has many different "right" answers- no one size fits all! I do weigh daily, first thing every morning.

sarah.grace

Okey-dokey. I'm going to plan my S days. And write it down. And maybe it will go well for me.

I have frozen cupcakes and cake layers before, so that would be plausible. have you ever frozen pudding or filling? Or maybe I can find a single-serving pudding recipe- I seem to recall one floating around here recently. Ya know, I am just really good at excuses and reasons for not being rational on...

sarah.grace

I know that planning S day treats is a great idea. I just haven't been able to make it work for me yet! But every weekend is a new try. :) I have been wanting Boston cream pie for a long time, but I can't figure out how to make a mini one.

Scotcheroo bars are so good and addictive.. I feel like I shouldn't tell you what they are. :P It's like a peanut butter/caramel rice krispy base with chocolate butterscotch topping.

We dip the sandwiches in the ranch dressing. Is that weird? To dip a sandwich? I guess like a french dip- though I've never had one of those.

So you just dip in a corner, eat it, dip again, eat it... etc. Okay, now it does sound kind of ridiculous!

sarah.grace

I've finally internalized the connection between habit and results I want. That is fantastic!! I am definitely not there yet, but striving toward it. :) Good for you!

I will definitely be consuming a Cadbury egg, but that's probably it for Easter candy. Not a big jelly bean fan. Probably no Easter dinner either, which is our typical method of celebration.

Oh goodness. Can I just say, I completely relate, tonight??? All day, I've been on an S Day 'binge'.. eating all sorts of sweets and junk that I don't need, don't even WANT, just 'because I can.' Ugh. So fed up with it! I woke up this morning with a good plan in my mind- I had 2 of my meals planned ...

sarah.grace

I'm really curious- what are cooper aerobic points??

sarah.grace

I see you use WATP for exercise.. what do you think of the program? I've read about it a couple places and it looks like a good one, but maybe you have some insights.

How intense is it, is it effective, is it fun?

sarah.grace

Welcome! Looks like you're off to a good start :) I'm a baker also, though not vegan. It will be fun to hear your recipes.

Congratulations! How exciting for you! I think it's fantastic that you're looking to be healthy during your pregnancy, and not using it as an excuse to eat whatever you 'crave,' whenever you want it.

Celery is another one of my favorites. I'm not so worried about going overboard on it though! :P I used to hate celery- I thought it was gross, and the strings drove me crazy.

I have mostly a 'love' relationship with peanut butter. It is definitely possible that I could go CRAZY and eat half a jar at once...
