Weigh In Wednesday

I will be hosting this each week starting this week. Once we get enough interested I will post a Mr.Linky. Just leave me a comment telling me that you are doing this.

Food: I did ok with food this week. Easter was Sunday so ham was not the best choice for me in that area because of the salt. But I had a small piece along with salad, fruit salad, and veggies.

Water: I need to drink more water during the day. This is something I have a hard time doing.

Exercise: We did lawn clean up, I walked 2 times this week. I'd like to find a low impact workout video I can do in the mornings.

Challenges: Not eating at night!! I'm frustrated that this is so hard for me.

Successes: I got more exercise into my week.

Plans for the next week: Again, I want to start a food journal.

Weigh-in: Down only a pound.

Helpful Hints: Drink a full glass of water before a meal, it will help you feel full.

Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Combine the water, apple juice, and apples in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, and stir in the rolled oats and cinnamon. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to low, and simmer until thick, about 3 minutes. Spoon into serving bowls, and pour milk over the servings.
