Okay - I see people write out what they eat each day and I think that that is great.  I think that journaling is so helpful. Often I get some of my best ideas for meals by reading what others who are trying to lose weight are eating. And I have found that some people are eating really fantastic food.  

So here is my day so far…

Breakfast: 1/2 cup Rice Krispies (finished the box) and 1 cup Cheerios with 3/4 cup of skim milk, an english muffin (with a small amount of oleo and honey)

Lunch: Starkist Tuna lunch pack (includes 3 oz. can of tuna, a packet of low fat mayo, sweet relish (don’t eat), and 6 crackers

Snack: 2 Russell Stovers and a can of Coke (drank that with lunch - reasoned it was Friday and a reason to celebrate)

Dinner: Hmmm…

Looking at my lunch and dinner I can see that I am missing fruits and vegetables and water.  I see I have some work to do.  BUT - the purpose of this tracking is to improve.  So I am going to think on dinner where I can incorporate fruits and vegetables to help round out the day.

See this is already beneficial.
