First Goal is In Sight!!

So I weighed this morning and lost 0.8 pounds between yesterday and today! Yay! I need to lose 0.7 more to FINALLY hit the official 10 pound mark! Maybe I've finally kick started my body again. Eric and I had a good night out last night. We went to see Step Up 3D which I really enjoyed but Eric was bored :) He picked it so he can't really complain. I'm so glad tomorrow is Friday this has been a long week!


Tonight for dinner, I think we are going to have lemon pepper chicken. It is Eric's favorite meal that I make. Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 1 pinch garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Place chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Season with lemon pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to taste. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  3. Turn over chicken pieces and add more seasoning to taste. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

It is so good and very healthy as long as you pair it with a healthy side. Have I mentioned that I miss macaroni and cheese? I love that stuff but I don't trust myself to exercise portion control with it yet. Hopefully soon I can have it again.

I have the wedding to shoot this weekend, then next weekend we are going to see stay with my sister in law and then the weekend after that is when I start school again. So August is pretty much going to fly by. I'm still trying to think of ideas for Eric's birthday. I think if we have the money, we are going to go to the Rangers game maybe two that weekend.

Hopefully by the beginning of September we will have our gym membership and can really get our bodies into shape. Diet can only do so much for you for so long..... Exercise is the biggest part for me, I have to get over the mental block of making excuses why I cant or wont go.


Side note, if any of you have or know of anyone getting rid of kids clothes for boys and girls please let me know I am trying to round some up.

I guess that's it for today. Thanks for reading!

Lots of Love,

"For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better."
