Meal Prep for Sept. 16 - Sept. 20 + Quick Recap of Last Week

My goal for the Back to Basics Challenge was to track what I eat this past week. I didn't track anything! Maybe being half on track and half off plan has a part in it... Anyway, I do plan on remedying it this week. I have done WW online, My Fitness Pal, and Lose It! They are all good if you like using them, but I'm not so big on tracking each little ingredient I eat, especially by calories. My goal is to start tracking by posting photos of everything I eat. That is what I did the first time I was successful at losing weight. I might not write a post on my blog everyday, but if I don't I will post something on the Facebook page for this blog.

I did manage to take a picture of one cute outfit from last week. I wore it on Monday, since I have class and there was one little Purdue P on the dress. I actually felt cute wearing this outfit.

I got some cheap ballet flats to wear with skirts, so I still look dressy. I can fit my orthodics in them, but the back of my feet and top of my feet had blisters from the shoes rubbing on them all day.

I enjoy ear cuff earrings, so I was glad I was able to wear them in a "classier" way for work.

I also wore a nice necklace that the hubs got me for Christmas a few years ago.

The only other pictures from the week are of what I spent my Saturday night doing. Reading for class in bed with the dogs fighting and not helping me concentrate. I didn't realize my chapter for Monday was 82ish pages long and put it off until this weekend. I won't do that again!

I did mange to get a quick food prep in as well today. I made turkey burgers for my lunches with whole wheat sandwich thins, toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese), and sweet potato fries.

I'm still struggling with craving McDonald's Egg McMuffins for breakfast. I once again made my own and my goal this week is to eat more of my homemade ones that McDonald's ones.

I also got some snacks ready for the week.

I didn't prepare dinners, because my hubs cooks two days a week and I typically eat leftovers the other days.

Here's to a week of tracking!
