Birthday break

I had a blast celebrating my birthday the last few days. I am hoping however, that I did not gain back all the weight I have lost. lol. I gave into temptation with many foods and drinks. I received some very touching and fun gifts. I am now jumping right back into eating better and my exercise though because I don't want to go backwards. Here is the last meal I made before my birthday. It is a simple one but, still good.

                                              The Finished Meal

I will have to look up and do exercise inside while watching television because I don't want to miss The Glass House or The Olympics but, I have to keep burning fat and calories. I am sorry I missed some days on my blog but, I was busy having fun. I am back on track now.

Just weighed and WOW! Just three days of eating not so great with sweets and
I gained: 3lbs. whaaaaaaaaaaaaa back in 200's --not happy with that but, more determined.
13lbs lost ......now

A lap in time

I am celebrating my birthday on Tuesday. I have already warned my daughter no baked goods. lol. Yesterday I did rest and watch some of my shows like the bachlorette, Glass house feeds, and Dollhouse. I plan to watch Pretty little Liars and Glass house today also. However, I did go and swim some laps at the pool while it is open. My shoulder is paying for it today but, I got some exercise in.

For dinner I did not plan out anything because my hubby has been so sweet to help out a lot lately and I got a long massage and then he made dinner for us. We had an African (part American style) dish called Ugali and beef stew. I love it. I know it has white cornmeal in it but, I ate fruit and other healthy things earlier and I did not eat too much of it. Yummy. Here are some pics of dinner as it was cooking.

The day before I did ok with eating but, I did indulge in a cake pop --The name fits it to a tee. Here are some pictures.

I am suppose to do my virtual 5K at www.sparkpeople.com sometime this week and am pondering where I should to it and if I will be up to it.

How are you coming along? What is going on with you?

Lost 16lbs.
