The Champ

Here is a video so that you can see me in the competition Saturday. :)

Figure Open Overall Winner!!!!!

All my hard work paid off!

Boot Camp Picnic...better late than never... :)

And the winner is...TEAM BLAUDOW!!

Thank you so much for the cheering last night at the show. You have no idea what it feels like to have so many people pulling for your success. The roar of the crowd. Hearing your name. Hearing your number yelled out. It still brings chills and I even have some wet eyes as I think back. Thank you.

Here are some pics from the show!! I won ladies...can you believe it?!?!?!?! WOO HOO!

Talking with Lucy...

Lucy lost 14 pounds for our last weigh in. She had been averaging about 2-3 pounds each weigh in before that, but not for the last one! I asked her what she had been doing differently and how did she pull off such a big number this time...

She said, "Major diet change. More protein, less carbs - and no sweets. I have been taking my lunch to work. Less snacking. Just making healthy choices."

How easy does that sound ladies? You can do it too! Eat your protein. Eat your veggies. Cut out the sugar, you don't need it! Make the healthy choices for your body.

You CAN do it! Have a great day. Emily

Did you miss Crazy Emily...I mean Super Emily!!?!?!

If you missed last Friday and are wondering what all the commotion was about, here it is!! Thank you Mama for filming. It would not have been the same without you! Love you ladies. Thanks for putting up with all of my shenanigans... :) You are all super heros in my book.

Keep up the hard work!

Pullups anyone?

Some of my competition training...

Ashley and I told Chris that he sounded crazy when he talked in the video...that is why some of the videos he is cheering me on, and the rest he is silent. :)

Amazing Results!

Ladies,

Our very own Kim C. has reached her LIFETIME Weight Watchers Goal Weight!!! Let's celebrate with her. She has worked so hard and has made a commitment to continue that hard work. She is going for 12 more pounds to be at her ULTIMATE (yes, I said, ultimate) goal weight.

Keep up the hard work Kim! You look awesome. Know that everyone is cheering you on. You are amazing! CONGRATULATIONS!! :)

Bologna: Animal Fat Will Kill You!

Ladies. Chris found this video for you. It is from the documentary Fat Head. It is very interesting and gives you a different perspective than what you usually hear about nutrition...enjoy.

Planning Ahead

I have a BUSY day tomorrow. Boot camp at 5 and 6, helping a friend at 7:30, my cardio workout at 8:30, PT at 9:30, my weight training workout at 10:40, dentist appointment at 1 pm in Morton. WHEW! I am not complaining about being busy, but I go through the same things that you do!

I had to plan ahead to get my meals ready. This is something that you can do every day to keep you on track. It took me about 25 minutes to get three meals ready for tomorrow. I will be eating my first three meals on the road tomorrow. I cannot rely on eating on the road with my competition diet. I have to be very strict.

Meal 1: 3 eggs salad made with mustard and spicy mustard, carrots, spinach juice
Meal 2: 2 string cheese (I do not include string cheese on a regular basis, in fact, this is the first time I have eaten them since I went on my diet...it is strictly for convenience sake that I will be eating them tomorrow), 2 slices natural ham, cherry tomatoes, spinach juice.
Meal 3: This will be post workout on my way to Morton. Protein shake, yellow pepper, spinach juice.

Yes, that is three spinach juices for tomorrow so far. It is SO important that I get my veggies in. If not for the veggies, I would not feel like I got to eat at all! I will probably have another serving or two of spinach before tomorrow is over...

Please do not think that my diet is the diet that you should be following. I am on a competition diet that is strategically planned out for my body. When you are ready for your competition diet, we will map out yours specifically for your body! :)

High Heels?!?!!

Yes, I am going to be wearing these...

5 inch high heels do wonders for the legs. :) If anyone is interested in coming to watch me walk across a stage in them...mark you calendars. July 17th. For more information click here.

http://www.probodysolutions.com/show1.html

The show starts at 6 PM. I will have more information for you all on the times that I will be on stage...and collecting my trophy! :)

Krissy obviously did not want to be on camera... :)

Kari's Spinach and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Kari submitted this recipe. I am going to try it this weekend, it sounds GREAT. You all know how I like spinach, so this will be another great way for me to get it in my diet. Thank you Kari!!

Chicken breasts
Season salt
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh spinach
Italian dressing

Pound out the chicken breast to flatten (I use a kitchen mallet and wax paper, you can also use a rolling pin). Lightly season the flattened chicken with season salt, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken, and then lay the fresh spinach leaves on top of the cheese. Roll the chicken up and secure with toothpicks. Put into a baking dish and drizzle Italian dressing over the chicken. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.

Make sure you look at the ingredients of the Italian Dressing. Pick one that is mostly real ingredients - vinegar, oil, spices... Try to avoid the ones with sugar added. Or you can always make your own...

Terri's Tuna Salad with Beans

Thank you Terri for sending me this recipe. Tuna salad does not have to be full of mayo. We can make it healthier by adding olive oil and vinegar. This looks great. Thank you Terri!!

2 cans Tuna

1 can white butter beans

1 sm can water chestnuts, sliced

2 green onions, sliced

1 T Olive Oil

1 T Wine Vinegar

2 t Chervil (this is a spice that most people have never heard of, but I love it in tuna salad!)

Mix together and enjoy!!

I divided this up into 4 servings.

By the way, the recipe called for mayonnaise, but I've come to prefer tuna salad made with olive oil.

Chris' Veggie Dip

1 c. Low-fat cottage cheese

1/4 c. almonds (he used salted, I used half salted, half raw)

1 tsp. Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Season

Put all ingredients into a blender/food processor. Process until smooth. You will still have some chunks of nuts. Serve this chilled with your favorite veggies. The Mrs. Dash seasoning is a bit spicy, so adjust the amount for your taste. We also really like the Fiesta Lime seasoning, and it would be great in here as well. You can also use Mrs. Dash on your grilled chicken, fish, or pork chops. Chris loves it on his chicken.

Protein Pancakes

Thank you, Chris, for finding this recipe. I was skeptical at first, too, but you will love them. Make these pancakes this weekend when you are craving something good for breakfast. You will be completely satisfied and you will never know that you just ate healthy! Top these with berries, cinnamon, or even a little bit of whole fruit preserves. You will love them...and your kids probably will like them too...

Recipe makes two servings of three, 1/4 cup pancakes

Ingredients
1/2 cup egg whites (we buy the pasteurized containers of egg whites)
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup frozen, warmed berries with their juices as a topping or whole fruit preserves

Directions

Blend first four ingredients until smooth (I use the magic bullet; if you use a blender be sure to put the wet ingredients in first)

Pour approximately 1/4 cup batter for each pancake onto heated griddle or non-stick pan (check to see if its hot enough with a splash of water-if it sizzles,its hot enough)

When pancake bubbles, flip and cook the other side.

Top with frozen, organic strawberries-warmed and sliced and poured over the top with their juices. Or substitute fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries, blackberries or bananas. Whole fruit preserves is also a very good choice. Look for one with NO added sugar.

Chris' Muscle Meatloaf

1 lb. ground beef at least 95% lean

1 c. low-fat cottage cheese

1/2 c. oats (not steel cut, rolled oats)

1 egg

That is it, that is all he put in there. Mix it up bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. He topped it with some organic ketchup. YUM!! Don't get me wrong, it tastes great just like this, but a bit of salt and papper, and maybe some grated onion would make it. Add your favorite spices, just use this as your base recipe. About 1/5 of the loaf is a good serving for you. That will give you plenty of protein for your meal. Don't worry, you (or your family) will never know that the cottage cheese is in there.

Lemon Garlic Shrimp & Veggies

From EatingWell: March/April 2008

Here's a healthy twist on shrimp scampi. Leave out the butter and load the dish up with red peppers and asparagus for a refreshing spring meal. I like to add crushed red pepper flakes to this dish as well. I love the spiciness, and I believe it speeds up the metabolism. I would also leave out the cornstarch. I don't really think it is necessary - just use less broth because it won't thicken.

4 servings

Ingredients

4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

2 large red bell peppers, diced

2 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths

2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest

1/2 teaspoon salt, divided

5 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound raw shrimp, (26-30 per pound), peeled and deveined

1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

1 teaspoon cornstarch

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers, asparagus, lemon zest and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to soften, about 6 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl; cover to keep warm.

Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk broth and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth and add to the pan along with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened slightly and the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, about 2 minutes more.

Remove from the heat. Stir in lemon juice and parsley. Serve the shrimp and sauce over the vegetables.

Hummus

Ingredients 2 cans (16 ounces each) reduced-sodium garbanzos, rinsed and drained except for 1/4 cup liquid 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 2 garlic cloves, minced 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper 1/4 teaspoon paprika 3 tablespoons tahini (sesame paste) - optional 2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley Directions In a blender or food processor, add the garbanzos. Process to puree. Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, pepper, paprika, tahini and parsley. Blend well. Add the reserved liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time until the mixture has the consistency of a thick spread. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Eat with mixed raw veggies or spread on a piece of Ezekial Bread in place of mayo on your sandwiches. Make sure you put some protein on that sandwich and some extra veggies. *** You can add anything from roasted red peppers to olives to spicy jalepenos to hummus.

Chicken with Mushroom Sauce

Serves 4
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, each 4 ounces
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 shallots, thinly sliced
1/4 pound mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon all-purpose (plain) flour
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Directions
Place the chicken breasts between wax paper and pound with a mallet to flatten. Cut each piece in half lengthwise. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm.
In a small frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute for about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes more, stirring occasionally.

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and wine until all the lumps are gone. Add the flour mixture to the shallots and mushrooms. Stir in the chicken stock and cook over medium-high heat. Stir until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add the rosemary.

In a large, nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and saute until no longer pink or until a thermometer inserted into the chicken reads 170 F, about 5 minutes.

To serve, transfer 2 chicken breast halves onto each plate. Spoon mushroom sauce over the chicken and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.

Spinach and Ham Frittata

This spinach frittata is full of protein and veggies (my two favorite food groups :). It can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Make it and take the leftovers for your lunch the next day. If you don't have leeks, use onions. If you don't have havarti cheese, you can substitute what you have. Eggs are the perfect protein. They are inexpensive and the protein is very bioavailable. Make sure you are eating yours!

Spinach & Ham Frittata 6 Servings Ingredients 8 large eggs 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 leeks, white and light green parts only, diced 1 5-ounce bag baby spinach, chopped 1/2 cup diced ham 1/2 cup shredded havarti or Muenster cheese Preparation Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 450°F. Whisk eggs, dill, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Heat oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks; cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add spinach and ham; cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook, lifting the edges of the frittata so uncooked egg can flow underneath, until the bottom is light golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on top, transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the eggs are set, 6 to 8 minutes. Let rest for about 3 minutes before serving. Serve hot or cold.

What Did She Eat on Vacation?!?!?!

Here it is Ladies.

Krissy's How to Lose Three Pounds While You Are on Vacation

Food Journal and Activity Log

Yes, there are some foods on here that are technically not on the diet, but she was on vacation. You still have to be able to live you life, but you do not have to stuff yourself at every meal. You can still eat your fruits and veggies like Krissy did. You can still get your protein at every meal. You can still workout and stay active. This is a healthy lifestyle that we are creating right now. It is a lifestyle, so you have to make healthy lifestyle choices while you are on vacation too.

Krissy did it! You can do it too.

Krissy's Disclaimer... "Don't judge me. :) There are a couple days where it "seems" like I ate a lot. However, I assure you it was only a forkfull of food."

Emily's note: Eating small portions (ie. forkfulls of food) is a really great way to not feel deprived. You can still have a taste. The first bite is always the best, right?!?!!

Activities

Saturday – Lake Run

Sunday – Wednesday, Saturday – Boot Camp Workout She worked out!

Tuesday, Saturday – 3, ½ mile run she ran...

Thursday – Yard work (3 hours) she stayed active while on vacation!

Friday, Saturday – Garage Cleaning (6 hours, 1.5 hours) Six hours of garage cleaning...that will burn a pound off of anybody! :)

This is a great lesson in being mindful of what you are doing. This is not what Krissy eats on a regular basis. For the past month, I have not see any fried foods on her food journal. So I am posting this not as what I want you to be eating on a regular basis, but what Krissy ate on vacation and still managed to lose three pounds.

Krissy, how hard did you push yourself during your three boot camp workouts? Were you sweaty?

Did you feel deprived? Did you hear my voice in your head when you were eating? Are reaching your goals more important than any meal or treat?

Think about those two types of pain. You can do anything you set your mind to! Thank you Krissy for sending this to me! Thank you all for reading it all the way to the end!! :)
