I weighed myself last night and the scale said 95 kilos! I was jumping like crazy and making these silly faces to my husband, when he said, "The weighing scale is broken, bey." What the??!! After all that burst of happiness...poof! So, he showed me. he even asked baby to step on the scales, and indeed the two of them also "lost" some weight, considering both of them have been gorging on junk foods and crazy stuff this week. AArgghh!! Anyway, that didn;t dampen my spirit and I just took another 10 minutes to do some exercise. I looked in the mirror and I knew I lost maybe a pound or two, coz I can see my face getting smaller...hehehe :)
Anyway, today, I have some chicken franks for lunch and some brown rice. Packed also a slice of wheat bread, in case I get some hunger pangs later in the afternoon.
Will update this later :)

Wednesday-2nd week
Woke up late again, as usual. Instead of taking the car or the taxi to work, decided to take the long route and walked and took the bus. I welcomed the walk...hehehehe :)
When I woke up this morning, I weighed myself and was surprised to see that the weighing scale says 95kilos???what the?! it could just be the water and all, though...hahahaha. I forgot to mention that yesterday I was 100 kilos. So, I was wondering did I lose all that overnight?hahahahaha...I don't think so. Anyway, I was thnking, it could be since I didnt have any dinner...maybe...maybe not. Well, will just weigh myself again tonight to be sure. But, I was farily proud of myself in just having oatmeal for dinner. Hmmm...that's a good idea, plus it could lower my blood rpessure and cholesterol. I have my walking shoes with me here in the office so I think I will be taking my usual Makati walk later...hehehehe.
For breakfast, I had 2 spoons of rice with tuna. I packed some chicken for lunch, some leftover, plus some red rice. Bought brown rice in the store yesterday, coz I wasnt sure about the red rice (which I previously bought), if it has less calories or not.
For lunch, had the chicken and some of the dinuguan sauce...arghh! Had some 1/2 bagel with cream cheese and some sweet potato fries for snacks. For dinner, had some pinakbet (veggies) with small rice. In the afternoon, did my "Makati" walk again. I went to the bank, like 2 blocks from where I work and enjoyed walking. It was a 2-in-1 thing. Was able to fix some stuff in the bank and was able to burn some calories. Cool!

Tuesday-2nd Week
It's 745 today and so far I had another set of that leftover pansit from dinner for breakfast. I forgot to bring my walking shoes, so I think I'd be doing my walking later wearing high heels...hahahaha :)
Plus, a co-worker is going to celebrate her birthday and we are going to have some free lunch. I brought red rice with me. Hopefully I wil be able to control myself and get small poritons only later during the "attack"...hahaha
So, there was free lunch, it was buffet time! :) Picked some good choices, though :) Had lots of the veggies (chopsuey), chose the chicken adobo instead of the pork adobo, had the beef kaldereta and some stewed chicken and rellenong bangus. Had a small slice of the bday cake and2 cups of coffee.
Since, I was fairly fully, I only had oatmeal for dinner...yey!

Monday-2nd Week
Here's a rundown of what I had yesterday (Monday):
2 cups of coffee
piyaya (1)
barquillos(2 pcs)
bangus (1)
choco flakes (2 clusters)
toasted bun (1)
lechon kawali (1 pc)
11/2 cups rice
1 fried chicken
pansit
1 bite of cake
I know I had another does of "bad" choices. But I was happy to note that I could have eaten more, especially with the ckaes, considering there was a big array of cakes in the pantry here in the office. But, I opted not to get a big slice. I just took a small bite and just settled with coffee. Yey! But that replaced the "feast" we had for dinner...hahahahaha!! I got an incentive here in the office and hubby thought we should do a little "celebrating". Bought clothes of baby girl and some fried chicken, pizza (for baby). Had the fried chicken and some leftover pansit for dinner. Geesh! Could have eaten more, but I stopped at some point. So, I think I did okay yesterday. Plus, I encountered a 10-minute walk/exercise. Walked around Makati...hahahaha :)
Also, I bought red rice over the weekend. Is red rice better than brown rice? Does it have the same effect? Will have to research on that.

Day 3
It's 714 in the morning and so far, I had:
1 piece of wheat bread with tuna
1/2 cup of water
For lunch, I packed some bean sprouts with tuna and some grilled chicken hotdogs.
I also brought along 2 tuna sandwiches, for that quick snacks later.
Looking at what I ate yesterday, hopefully I will slowly incorporate eating healthy food and lessen the bad stuff. Over the weekend, I realized I have a very high blood pressure. This could be the reason why I have some feeling of light headedness over the past days. So, enough of the white stuff and in with the high-fiber food :)

The Beginning
I was going over the net yesterday when I stumbled upon a lot of blogs documenting their progress on battling their weight problems. I have issues with my weight myself and I was inspired by these people. Hence, the creation of this blog. In this blog, I will document the things I eat for the day to keep me on track on whther I am eatig healthy food or not...hehehe :) Since I will be blogging most of the time from work, I will probably list the stuff I eat from the previous day, or if I can the things I ate that day. The goal is not really to be thin like Paris Hilton :), just be healthy and be more conscious to eating good food :) Wish me luck!
