pregnancy weight loss dubai
We last talked about our goal of finishing 2013 healthy and strong and I so appreciate your feedback in the comments. Your courage to share where you are in your journey helps me be transparent in mine too and I feel like were in this together. I got in 4 really great workouts last week, and I feel that thats a good fit for my current schedule through the end of the year. It takes some planning and preparation to make sure to get to the gym, but if I workout hard for at least 50 minutes, Im good with 4 days.
Getting started back into a weight-lifting/workout routine is especially hard because you are so SORE for the first few days. I had to take Advil a few times, but Im already fine. And isnt it funny how after just a few workouts you feel 5 pounds lighter?! My scale says Im down half a pound. Its a start!

On Halloween, I ate 2 chocolate chip cookies that a mom from my sons school made and a mini Reeses Peanut Butter cup. To be honest, the cookies were delicious, but I should have just had one, and the Reeses didnt taste that good- probably because Im a PB cup snob now, having fallen in love with the homemade variety. The point is, if Im going to "cheat" I want it to be worth it! And I know that finishing the year strong requires some sacrifice and diligence with my food especially during the week. So, Im being more conscious of what foods Im choosing and having something really good to look forward to on the weekend. On Saturday night, we went out to a great restaurant and I ate oxtails and potatoes- so good, but really rich, so I only ate about 1/3 of what was on my plate. I had 2 glasses of wine and for dessert, had a big ole ice cream cone that I really enjoyed. Back on the wagon for Monday.
My other tip for this week is to SHARE MEALS when you go out to eat, if possible. Im usually full after half my meal, but feel like I need to finish, so Ill end up eating too much. Leftovers from restaurants usually end up in the trash and its a shame to waste the food and money. Sharing with someone eliminates that and you dont leave the table feeling so heavy from overeating.

I made a healthy meal last week that I think you might like too. I warn you that its not the prettiest dish, but very tasty and full of protein. Its kind of a Tex-Mex casserole with egg noodles. I really believe that "abs are made in the kitchen", which is why the eating portion is so crucial to seeing results. My meals last week pretty much consisted of:
7am- oatmeal and coffee
10am- protein shake
12pm- this casserole
3pm- tuna sandwich and Sun chips
6pm- this casserole
8pm- Greek yogurt or hot cocoa
I also stopped in Starbucks a few times (which is a step back from my previous daily addiction).
Ingredients
1 Jennie O- Extra Lean Ground Turkey
1 Lauras Lean Beef (94% Lean) - or go leaner
1 bag No Yolk Egg Noodles
1/2 container of Philadelphia Cream Cheese (1/3 less fat) - or use fat free
1 cup Shredded Mexican cheese (2%) - or use fat free
1 package Taco Seasoning (low sodium)
*Update 2/16/14: add some minced parsley, chopped onion and garlic for added flavor
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Boil the egg noodles for about 8 minutes, then drain.
Meanwhile, (*Update 2/16/14, brown the onion and garlic) and then add the two meats until cooked though, add the seasoning mix with about a cup of water and let it boil until the water and seasoning is absorbed. Then, I add the parsley.
Off the heat, add the cream cheese and the shredded cheese to the meat mixture and stir until all melted and mixed in. Add in the noodles and stir until combined.
I based this dish on a pin from Pinterest, but lightened it up. To make it even lighter, use leaner beef and fat free cream cheese and fat free shredded cheese. Some people may also like to add salsa to this for more flavor.
If you portion this dish into 10 servings, below is the nutrition information. I use myfitnesspal.com to calculate the nutrition- its free and really user-friendly.
So, hows it going for you? If youve fallen off the wagon, just get back on!
