Over in calories again (there's a shocker for me on the weekend, eh? ), but I still think it all balances out throughout the course of the week. Anyway, here's Sunday:
Fruit Loops (the 1/3 les sugar kind) w/skim milk
2 Healthy Choice hot dogs on wheat buns topped w/melted American cheese w/mac n' cheese
2 Healthy Choice hotdogs (no buns) w/mac n' cheese (it's been FOREVER since I've had mac n' cheese, so I bought just 2 boxes and will save the other for a rainy day)
home-made milkshakes (1 was some sort of healthier Edy's vanilla ice cream--reduced sugar, fat, calories, something--skim milk, peanut butter, and a banana, and the other was minus the banana and replace with lite chocolate syrup...both were AMAZINGLY delicious--and high in cals )
Total: something like 2750 calories
Todays plan:
instant oatmeal
yogurt
sandwich [reduced-cal Wonder bread, natural peanut butter (peanuts only, not even any salt added), and no-sugar-added strawberry preserves]
Smartfood popcorn
2 turkey burgers w/Swiss cheese and bbq sauce on wheat buns w/instant noodle side (teriyaki flavor)
Total: comes to about 1475 calories

Reason: more for dinner...
I had to drag myself to the gym this morning, I was fighting it all the way. But I did it anyway! Didn't have a great weekend food-wise, but I'm back on track today!
Your loss put a huge smile on my face, Sandi! Do you think if I stand up close to you, some will rub off onto me?
I wasn't at all well yesterday. I felt okay when I first woke up, but when I was in the bathroom I came over all hot and sweaty, and actually fainted! So, I pottered about in my PJs all day. I feel much better today, though still a little weak. I might manage a wee walk later to blow out the cobwebs.
Sun 20/11:
Meal #1: 2 cups home-made creamy mushroom soup; 500 ml coffee. Meal #2: 8 Triscuits, 2 oz gouda; 500 ml water. Meal #3: 3 sushi maki rolls; 1 l water. Meal #4: 1½ cups rice with beansprouts, onion, and spices cooked in 2 tsp.olive oil and vegetable stock; 1 l water. Meal #5: 12 Triscuits, 3 LC Party Cubes, 1 oz gouda; 1 l water. Extra Drinks: 750 ml water, 500 ml green tea.
1 small 7 layer (although it was more like 4-5 layers ) salad
1 serving baby carrots, and half the dip that came with it (eating all of the dip would have been 15 grams of fat!!! )
1 cup green tea/1 cup orange spice tea in same mug
Sandi I am so proud of you!!! Yippee Skippee! I had another week of staying the same. But I am here and I am not giving up! Frustrated yes but quitting no. I am so happy for your loss!!!!
~ well, that about sums up how I feel about Sandi's loss this week! Great job! Now that's something to really keep you in line leading up to Thanksgiving!
Ali, its gotta be the antibiotics; I've had that exact same reaction where you break out in a cold sweat and pass out! I guess it means they're working, but still....
Today was committee ****, seeing as I'm on so many and there were 3 meetings today. The food provided wasn't exactly beneficial to my plan, but I ate small portions. Of course I had to work really late to catch up on all I didn't get done during the meetings, so I'm really tired and cranky right now ~ I know, I know, someone's about to offer me some whine to go with my cheese!

I ended up adding onto yesterday's menu last night after dinner, so I was up to almost 1500 calories instead of being below 1200, which is still within a good range for me.
Good Morning all!! Thanks for all the encouragement, I can't tell you how much it means to me. Anyone check out the 3FC home page today?

I also did the eliptical machine for 500 cals and abs.
Today, I have a yoga class and I'm going to try for 300 cals on the eliptical. My calorie goal per week is 2,000, I'm going to try for a little higher this week due to the Thanksgiving.
Your crankiness is probably as much to do with lack of Timmy's coffee as anything else, Jilly!
The anti-bios better had be working: I had another poor do yesterday, followed by a wicked migraine that's still lingering a little this morning. Bleagh, I'm not used to being sick, and I don't like it one bit.
Love the profile, Sandi! You're always so candid, and what you say really makes sense. You'll sail through Thanksgiving with your attitude that it's only one meal.
Your wee boy is certainly a sweetie, Beth! Cute!
Looks as though everyone has had a great start to the week. Of course, I have to be a contrary fish!
I had my usual cereal etc. for brekkie with sushi maki and raw vegetables for lunch. After that I'm afraid I have no clue.... I know I ate rice, stuffed turkey breast, veggies, pumpkin bread, pie and ice cream ( I never eat pie and ice cream!), a big chocolate biscuit (maybe 2)....
So, the scale registered a 6 pound gain at my WI today. Maybe some is water, maybe not, but I don't want to be scratting around for an excuse. It's overeating that got me fat in the first place, and denial and excuses that kept me there for so long. I must rein this in and stop being so complacent. Starting right now!
Any kicks up the bum and stern talking tos will be gratefully accepted.
