Curves and diet update

 Before I leave the blog for the day I want to get a post down for my diet.  I've stayed on it strong.  Yup, I'm all that!  I was going over the 1200 after the first day because of snacks so I just cut those out.  I also had the salad on the first night and that was enough for me.  It wasn't enough calories when you think I'm burning over 700 on Mon, Wed and Friday and about 450 on Tuesday and Thursdays.  So I've kept my morning protein shakes and am eating my sub for lunch and then the other half for dinner that's giving me 1191 calories a day, that's counting the cheese and low fat mayo.  As a matter of fact on Thursday when we went to go pick up Rylie I stopped at the Subway on the way home to get 4 subs to get me through the weekend.  Rylie helped me eat them too.  He loves them, red onions, green peppers and all.
I keep track of everything, food, exercise, water intake and my weight on my Android using the Sparkpeople application.  It syncs with my Sparkpeople page where you can find more info about me lol, probably more than anyone wants to know.  I have to stop by there and drop a blog post.
Sondra (the Curves lady) wouldn't let me weigh myself Thursday (closed for Good Friday) because I asked after I worked out and she said I would weigh less.  So I have to remember to do it before I start working out.  I feel like I've dropped some serious weight.  I can really feel and see it in my face.  I think it will be a good idea to wait till the end of next week to weigh unless she wants to do it before.  We're having a challenge this month to see who can lose the most weight.  I'm gonna win....I know that!  Probably because I'm new and have the most weight to lose.
So I go on Mon, Wed and Friday and the reason for that is because she locks the doors on those days and lets men workout from 1-2.  So ya, you guessed it, I have Bill signed up at Curves!! lol.  Not many wives can pass that one off.  I'd like to see it.  He loves it tho and he is real pepped up afterwards.  He gets a high from it, I know.  He doesn't even come home and take a 4 hour nap like he does after water aerobics. The only thing that kinda sucks about the whole thing is the time difference between water aerobics and Curves.  Water aerobics start at 10 and we have to wait till 1 to get into Curves because of Bill. On M.W and Friday I usually splash around in the regular pool for another half hr and get a bit more exercise then hit the therapy pool and usually the sauna before showering and heading out but the therapy pool was closed Thursday because the hospital uses it for therapy sometimes and they were using it and then I forgot my towel so I didn't take a mega shower.  We had some time to kill so we went to Subway and waited in the car.  There is an aerobics class that starts at noon I believe but I think that would be cutting it way too close.  We would be running late all the time and I don't like that feeling.  We have the time, nothing else to do but I really wasn't wanting to spend my whole day working out.  But I gotta do what I gotta do so I will do it.
That's my update and I'm sticking to it.
Tomorrow's Easter, mom is having it at her house and is making ham. Yum. I wish I knew how to count calories because I'm going to have to eat my sub!
