Well, I was down 1/2 lb. today at weigh in. It was a bit disappointing, but in reality, I did eat out/cheat just a bit yesterday, so the sodium content if nothing else might have caused me to hold water. Since I’m on such a low sodium plan, it seems that if I even get just a few milligrams over my normal amount, it causes me to hold water. Also, I had much heavier jeans, a corduroy jacket, and a belt on….so you never know. Yes, those are excuses, but they make me feel better.
Breakfast: cheese toast (1oz. cheddar, 45 cal bread), 1 hard boiled egg white, HNS
Lunch: bar, HNS
Dinner: Shrimp taco (wonderful! I used 2 oz. leftover grilled shrimp from last night, 1 oz. cheese, and 1/4 wrap (25 cal), and it was fabulous– I may have to buy some shrimp and make it myself sometime) broccoli, 2 garlic melba toasts (30 cal), HNS
I didn’t get to eat dinner until very late due to some water leakage problems with the house, so I went about 8 hours between meals, which is not good, but it couldn’t be helped.

Your dinner sounds good! 1/2 pound is good for half a week. And the foods you ate yesterday were high in sodium, so you know you were retaining some water, so you really lost even more!
