OK, Howie 'fessed up so I feel obliged too. I had a not so great weekend food wise......too much strawberry frozen yogurt (yes, I know its low fat, but not wise to eat it in quite so much quantity), bread, peanut butter....etc....It could have been worse, at least I avoided the Pringles...
Still, did a lot better yesterday and today:
Monday
Coffee
4 quarter sandwiches, fruit, lowfat yogurt (lunch at yet another meeting...)
Risotto, diet coke, apple
Lime and soda
30 min walk
Tuesday
Porridge and banana, coffee
5? quarter sandwiches at meeting (is there a pattern here????!)
Grilled salmon, pasta with puttanesca sauce (tomatoes, olives, anchovies, capers, chilli, garlic, parsley.....mmmmmm!)
Breakfast: Coffee with 1 tblsp. half & half, 2 Cinnamon Toast Eggos. Lunch: Naked coleslaw with ½ cup croutons and 1 tblsp. each of pecan pieces, sunflower kernels, & Ready Crisp bacon pieces. Dinner: 3½ oz chicken breast, 2 oz whole wheat couscous, ½ cup barbeque beans. Snacks: 50 g Munchies. (I can't believe I drew the line at 50 g! Usually I'd be going back for more, but that was quite sufficient for a treat for me. ) Drinks: 500 ml coffee, 2½ litres water, 355 ml tin diet cola, 500 ml Chardonnay <hic!> .
Laura: Good job on the exercise! I see you're still skipping meals though....
Thank you! (regarding the exercise)
So frustrating when I skip meals, usually because I get busy doing stuff, then I don't think to eat until I realise I am actually very, very hungry.
I'm working on improving my eating habits and my goal for June is to eat breakfast everyday and I'm doing well. Can't remember the last time I skipped breakfast while before it was the meal I skipped regularily. I think my goal for July is to eat breakfast and lunch everyday. There! it is out in print, you all can hold me to it!
B:My little guy was up until 4 am so I slept in (thank goodness for DH who dot up with the other two!) and didn't get my first meal until noon.
L: 3 oz grilled chicken with 1 c rice mixed with assorted vegetables, 1/4 c mac n cheese
D: 21 small deep-fried shrimp with 2 oz cocktail sauce, 2 cups salad with 3 TBS cheese and 2 oz fat free dressing, 1/2 cup green beans and 1 miniloaf of lemon blueberry bread with NO butter (We went out for dinner after my test to celebrate, I thought I did pretty well with my meal selection but while I ate my fried shrimp I wished I would have ordered the grilled instead. And I didn't have desert even though the restaurant we at had has AWESOME pie!)
S: 98% fat free frozen fudge bar, 15 chocolate covered almonds
Beverages: 60 oz water, 16 oz choc soymilk, 12 oz diet cream soda, HUGE glass of diet mt. dew
