Clean Eating mac & cheese

Didn't think I would get all my #steps in today, but on the drive home my daughter fell asleep in the car, so I took the baby to grandmas (same property we live on) and I did laps! This was after I did 4 trips carrying stuff up to our apartment upstairs. I only had to walk in placebos a few minutes to make my goal. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple
Meal planning today I decided to portion out my #realbutter , I'm pretty good at eye-balling it but I had the scale handy and if I can make it easier for hubby it'll help! I cut along the 1 tbls lines on the package then each slice into 3rds. Then, instead of tiny containers or baggies I cut up the parchment paper I was already using anyway into small pieces that I wrapped around the butter teaspoon sticks. I did most of the stick this way, I put pieces in each of my breakfast boxes for cooking eggs and the rest in a container. #mealprep #butter #fatdoesntmakeyoufat #mmmbutter #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #lowcarb #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple

After another mostly last day with mildly sick kids, I forced myself out of bed to use my #wiifit halfway in my 2 year old needed me, so I strapped her to my back in the #bobababy carrier and got back to it. I met my step goal! #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple

I am so glad I "read" this (actually listened thanks to @audible_com) @andiemmitchell is such a great author and her real-ness is solid. So many things I related to hearing her childhood struggles. Thank you #andiemitchell for putting this out there, for opening up. I will think of your revaluations in Rome on savoring every bite and think of identifying why I'm eating as a way to change. I had no idea who to put as my #wcw for the #teampineapple #pineapplephotochallenge picture last week but Andie is it.
Had a rough night with a sick toddler so a tired morning and headache meant little to no movement. I finally decided to try to be productive and I cleaned house and walked in place a bit, then turned the Wii on for some #wiifit time. My toddler said "mommy up!" So I was holding her part of the time. I did get all my steps in! #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple

A mostly great fitness day. Hour and half at gym then more than an hour at the park (half of it on a nature walk). Got home to let my in-law's dog out and she snapped at me. (My FIL just got home from a month away in hospital+rehab so our dog is protective and moody lately. I thought she busted my Fitbit but the little rod thing popped back into place. My Fitbit wrist is scratched though :( #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #gym #fitness #physiq #elliptical #cardio #fitfam #teampineapple #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #bobababy #youcanttakeastrollerhere

French toast breakfast. Normally I'd have 2-3 slices but I decided to have scrambled eggs instead of the extra slices. Entire family had thawed frozen fruit and sliced banana instead of syrup. Kids and I had peppers (random I know, but i need to get past my "veg are not breakfast sides" opinion).

Dinner was 6-7oz pork chop (it was 7 but my toddler are all of hers and some of mine) coked in just evoo and Mrs. Dash, green salad with ranch. No other carbs because I was saving for carrot cake for dessert (posted earlier) and I wasn't very hungry #lowcarb #iifym #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #lowcarb #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple
Ellie and I had some 1x1 time tonight after Penny went to sleep. She's not ready to do any of the exercises on the #wiifit board but can run in place with me, and we can work together on the balance games. (I sit on a chair behind her with my feet on the board on either side of her to add some pressure as needed) We got me to my step goal! #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple
My daughter helped invent this recipe. She wanted carrot cake with pineapple flour eggs seasonings and raisins. But decided no raisins when she leaned our dog couldn't have any. Recipe in comments. #carrotcake #proteinpowderrecipes #proteinpowder #pineapple #peanutbutter #teampineapple #lowercarb #carrot
I DID NOT wanna get up or workout before work today, but when I got up to pee my kids stole my spot on the bed so I was up anyway and did a quick walk with my Wii fit. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple
Did a bunch of cleaning and organizing in our office/craft room so we could move the tv for my Wii fit. I was able to shut the door and keep the kids out of my space for my workout and it was glorious! I wanted to keep going but it was bedtime. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple #flyladytaughtmewell #flylady

Lightly breaded tilapia, exactly 13 tator tots and roasted Brussels sprouts. No ketchup no tartar sauce. Only lemon juice for the fish and water to drink. #notcatholic but I love #fishfriday @gortonsseafood #skilletcrisp #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #lowcarb #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple
A year (and 3 weeks) in review. Jan 1 2015 I committed to eating less and moving more. I used MFP, a Striiv fitness tracker, and walking around my property. I did really great until April when my family got sick and I lost focus for 3.5 months. August 4 2015 I committed again and got back on it! I did great, lost steadily until mid December when I got started working overtime and got sick and indulged. I decided to maintain through Christmas. Jan 3 I had maintained. And I got back at it! I won't dwell on how much further along I would be if I had stayed on track, I'll dwell on the fact that I was *only* off track for 4.5ish total months of the 12! I was on-track for longer bouts than off. That is success. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #fitness #fitfam #teampineapple #healthychoices #eatingbetter #losingweight #teampineapple #exercise

Hit the gym tonight, man I wish the day care was open later I'd love to stay longer.

#pineapplephotochallenge #teampineapple #gymgoinguponatuesday with my @raycheeree Had to cut the trip a bit short because the gym day care closes earlier than I thought. Productive though! #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #gym #fitness #physiq #elliptical #cardio #fitfam #teampineapple #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise
Breakfast today and prepped for 3 other days this week. I've decided to cut carbs back even further and stop having the extra carbs just because I can afford the calories. The clementine orange is for snack later when I usually crave sweets. I need to get some more easy to eat veggies, I was nearly out of sweet peppers! #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #lowcarb #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple

#pineapplephotochallenge day 16 #iwokeuplikethis My newly 2 year old nursing and the sun in my eye (blocked momentarily for the picture) I slept in today after a long busy day throwing my daughters birthday party. My kids keep me motivated because I want to be healthy for them, and I want to model a good lifestyle for them. #brelfie #weightlossjourney #weightloss #fitness #fitfam #teampineapple #healthychoices #eatingbetter #losingweight #teampineapple #exercise
#pineapplephotochallenge #howistayontrack I use my social media and phone addiction to keep me focused on my choices my goals and my plan. This folder of apps is pinned to the bottom of my iPhone for easy access. I'll explain each item. @striiv_fitness was my first wearable activity tracker, I've since upgraded but I haven't deleted the app. #pinkpadapp helps me track my menstrual cycle. This helps me be aware of how my body changes throughout the cycle. The #iPhone health app is in here but I don't really use it now that I have my #fitbit. If you don't have a fitbit, you can keep your iPhone in your pocket and it will track your steps for you! I use IG exclusively for my #weightlossjourney the majority of the people I follow are #igfitfam or otherwise inspirations to my journey. I track my food using #myfitnesspal and watch my friends statuses. Since getting my Fitbit I have been more motivated to move. The daily and weekly challenges have kept me accountable and the friends have offered support. I'm in several #facebook groups for weight loss and I have filtered out pages specific to junky foods. I haven't actually used the app but going to #physiq has helped me stay on track because it's sort of a getaway for me. I can meet friends or my sister @raycheeree to workout together. The #teampineapple has added to my motivation and inspiration. I changed my wallpaper to a night colorful #pineapple to remind me constantly.

I had been hovering at and around 250 for a couple weeks, but I don't log my gains because I know it's water weight, my last entry in MFP was 248.2 Jan 4. I'm not where I'd like to be but I'm moving my way there. #nsv I didn't eat any candy yesterday! #weightlossjourney #weightloss #fitness #fitfam #teampineapple #healthychoices #eatingbetter #losingweight #teampineapple #exercise
Early breakfast before work. I LOVE #grapefruit I can't get enough! My #eggs were cooked in a #stonewavecooker which is the only way that I found I like microwave eggs.

I binged on 8-10 "fun" size chocolate candies today. I just couldn't/didn't stop. It's a real addiction. Well I mean I did stop eventually. I switched to eating only raw vegetables and lean protein the rest of the day and made myself double my normal minimum workout time on the #wiifit #wii Part of the time my daughter rode on my back in the #boba baby carrier to keep her out from under my feet. This added an element of challenge and strength training to my cardio. I finally fixed the time zone on my Wii (after my workout) so my late night workouts won't count for the next day.

I tried to #walk this morning but it was wet, which would be ok if it weren't skippy muddy. #pineapplephotochallenge #greatoutdoors #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple

Breakfast was so delish! I forgot how much I love #grapefruit! (I eat it plain, no added sugar, and I don't scoop the fruit out so I get the fiber!) #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple
Double workout day. Morning at the gym then evening Wii Fit! I totally needed the second bout after overeating at dinner. I need to just stop ordering pizza. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #gym #fitness #physiq #elliptical #cardio #fitfam #teampineapple #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple

Sometimes balancing fitness goals with non-fitness hobbies or activities. Today, I worked on some birthday party crafts (and some housework) in lieu of getting all my #steps in. I'm quite excited for my daughter's 2nd birthday coming up, it is a carousel horse theme so I've been making carousel decorations. Shopping for stickers today I found these #pineapple stickers which reminded me of #teampineapple #pineapplephotochallenge #nonfitnesshobby

Day 9 of the #pineapplephotochallenge is "planning/journaling" I use MFP for food journaling and IG for overall healthy life "journaling" so I went with "planning" The best way I have found for me to plan is to simply stock my kitchen with easy on track choices so I have no excuse to eat something junky. Tonight we shopped for a mountain of produce, yogurt, eggs, turkey sausage, cheese sticks, cottage cheese, lean nitrate free ham, laughing cow cheese, and a few easy to portion breakfast foods. I cleaned out some poor choices from the fridge (and some old stuff) to make room for some box meals/homemade lunchables for my work week. I kept seeing this toy pineapple on the floor of my living room so when I tidy'd up it went in the fruit bowl to remind me of #teampineapple #mealplanning #mealplan #fruit #veggies #healthychoices #fooddiary #eatingbetter #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cuttingcalories #mfp #mfp #myfitnesspal #countingcalories #fitfam #losingweight #teampineapple

For #flexfriday and the #pineapplephotochallenge I had intentions of doing strength training at home but ended up going to visit my FIL at medical/physical rehab instead. We are all strong to manage the stress, worry and emotions that happen when a family member is in and out an in the hospital with big-deal health issues. Being a mom is strength training. Being a daughter to aging/medically challenged parents is also. I opted to wear my Penny tonight instead of using a stroller as we walked to and from the room. Partially for the added workout, partially to feel her close to me, and me to her. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #fitness #fitfam #teampineapple #healthychoices #eatingbetter #losingweight #teampineapple #exercise

Quick walk today, 18 mins (Fitbit crashed part way) hoping I can get some more steps in today. #weightlossjourney #weightloss #workout #fitness #cardio #fitfam #countingsteps #healthychoices #losingweight #burningcalories #nogymneeded #fitbit #walkforweightloss #exercise #workoutathome #teampineapple
