Sooooo, I accomplished most of my goals.
I drank water. I worked out 6 days. I took Saturday off and it felt wonderful! I can count on one hand the days I haven't had a significant workout since Jan 1st. When I worked out today, I was very sore. I think I should have worked out minimally on Saturday just to get my muscles moving. I drank my protein shakes most of the days. I use the protein shakes to get me through to supper and some days I don't feel like I need them.=) Portion control continues to be my weak spot. I love to eat! Some people eat to live and I live to eat. BUT I am working on it. I achieved 10,000+ steps 5 days. My pedometer does not always pick up walking/running in place, lunges, etc, so even on days I work out I still need more steps. Consequently, I have been running in the evenings. Make 2 new recipes- I made egg casserole using gluten free bread and chicken noodle soup using quinoa noodles! I loved the quinoa noodles. Rice noodles sometimes get tacky but the quinoa noodles remained firm.
Also, I went to Bible study this week! I am enjoying the fellowship and I soooo need to grow in God. I need to become less.... and let God become more.
NOW for this week's goals!
1. 64 ounces of water
2. Work out at least 5 days
3. 11,000 steps at least 5 days
4. Stick to Biggest Loser's calories for me and measure food!
5. Pack away some of my clothes that are too big (Yes, I have clothes that are very loose)
6. Post monthly progress pictures next Sunday.

I just discovered Quinoa a month ago. I use it in its grain form to replace brown rice. It has a few more calories but its nutrient value is unmatched. I would like to try quinoa flour too.

We LOVE Quinoa. It is a new discover for us also. You are right about the nutrient value-it is a whole protein. I hope to try it this week sometime as a hot breakfast cereal. =)
