I am so glad this week is over. Monday it was –22 here today its 25. that’s a 50 degree heat wave! I am officially over winter, I am so glad we are spending next weekend in a 80 indoor water park. Bathing suit or not!
I have worked hard this week to stay active and count my calories. I weigh in this morning and I was down 1.8!! Yeah that means I made up my gain from last week and lost a bit more. My goal for next week is at least 1.6! The only thing is I will be weighing in a day early next week. and its an off week at boot camp so I need to push myself this weekend. Next week is also my measurements day!!!
I wanted to post some photos of my progress:

I have to tell you about my lunch and dinner. Every other Friday I work (I know not a bad deal right!) the Fridays I work we order lunch. One of my coworkers has a wheat allergy so its easy for me to order healthy because she is so limited on options. Today I decided I wanted a salad with grilled chicken. I ordered a creaser salad figuring I would eat the salad and chicken and use my dressing that I keep at work. For the first time ever the poured the dressing on the salad. there must have been enough dressing for 3 salads..seriously it was like I ordered dressing with a side of lettuce. The “grilled” chicken was breaded with no grill marks..it wasn’t very greasy but it certainly was not healthy. I was so disappointed. Grrr. I just ate the chicken.
Now for dinner I have a new favorite! Last night I baked some chicken and then chopped it up so it was ready for tonight. I baked with it some of the BBQ rub from pampered chef and basil seasoning. When I got home I heated it up to make chicken wraps. Instead of lettuce I used Cole slaw mix (without any of the dressing). It tasted so good. the cabbage gave it a crunch and it blended so well with BBQ season. Sorry we ate it too fast before I could take a photo!
everyone have a great weekend!

Love the pics! You look great! Keep up the great work.
Wow Kristen, looking good. Don't you hate when you try to order healthy and it doesn't work out grrrrr. You wraps sound delish
Yum, I am freaking STARVING right now and that chicken sounds soooo good. I would even accept the hugely fattening over dressed salad that you resisted!!! OOOOOOH TOOOO HUNGRYYYYY. But great job on the loss-way to set a goal and surpass it! And girl you are looking good! What a change!
