Watcha Eatin Weight Watchers Wednesday

Sometimes it feels like I can't catch a break, first it was crazy knee problem that turned out to be just "knee pain"...what... it feels like my knee has been Nancy Kerrigan'd! That has subsided enought that I can walk without limping, but know there's something wrong with my heel. Its as if there are 3 nails jammed into my heel everytime I take a step.

I know I know I'm to blame, but uggh this is annoying. I wear the wrong sneakers when I excercise (walk 4 miles a day) and I am either in flip flops or bare foot most of the day. I guess I'm in that classic age bracket where you start realizing unless you take care of your body it will fail you. So here's to being 29 and losing this gosh darnit weight so that when my 2 year old runs away from me in defiance I can swoop her up without limping the whole way!

Ok...sorry...but geesh. On a positive note...

Weekly stats:-15 lbs

This weeks food obsession: Healthy Choice Steamers

Starting this journey I knew that my problem would be feeling full. These microwaveable lunch or dinners are perfection. Jam packed with flavor and completely filling. They are about $2-$3 depending on where you purchase them (crazy affordable). I usually get them from Target or Kroger. Takes about 3 minutes to heat up and instant meal. They range in Weight Watcher points from 5-7 points...you can't beat that with a stick!

Here are some of there flavors:
