Shannon, I can't stand plain yogurt. It has to have some sort of sweetener to be remotely palatable to me. (And I can't stand artificial sweeteners, so this means either sugar or honey.)
My cutting out the morning snack is totally working. Weight is down this week. Woohoo!
Friday:
B - oatmeal squares, raspberries, blueberries, skim milk
L - @work two slices of veggie pizza, one slice cheese pizza
S - plum, apple w/laughing cow lite
D - probably leftovers, possibly pinto bean skillet chili w/rice
E - none planned

You know what really burns me up? This week, with houseguests, with the exception of two meals on Saturday night and Sunday lunch, I have limited myself to ONE small treat a day. A half inch edged slice of cake. One cookie I baked. No wine except on the weekend. Cooked OP meals every night so we could all eat healthy stuff together and I'd have OP lunches. One small treat, on top of my 1400 calorie days and regular amounts of exercise and tons of water, except for last weekend when I was higher. And my scale? IS UP SEVEN POUNDS. I'll own a pound for last weekend (Worth it)...but I KNOW that I'm not up 6 additional pounds of extra fat, so it must be water. Six pints of water. Just call me spongey.
Anywho. Guests are gone, so its back to eliminating the 200 calorie treat and trying to force some of the water weight out. But seriously. SIX PINTS!
B - French toast, peach
S - Grapes
L - WW Pasta, ground chicken, roasted veggies, tomato sauce
S - Popcorn
D - Grilled flank steak salad
S - NSA Ice Cream, Berries
Amanda - that is a lot of water! It will come back off, but it sure is annoying to see it I know! Glad your house is getting back to normal!
I could not drag my lazy self out of bed to exercise this morning, and the extra hour in bed was such a waste... I was mostly awake from 6:30 on anyway... should have made myself get up and get dressed...
Today:
E: strength training and light cardio when I get home
B: tea, smoothie, coffee, 2 terra veggie chips
S: grapes, strawberries, string cheese, one baked cinnamon sugar pita chip
L: grilled chicken salad
S: vanilla yogurt w/ mango, pineapple, berries, an apple w/ lite swiss laughing cow
D: don't know yet... either tacos or vindaloo chicken with wild rice
S: depends on dinner
I aruged with myself and lost, Shannon, so I did a good LBWO at the gym. And that means that Friday night is free. Today is DH's birthday, so I have to plan a piece of cake into my day. (I made it yesterday and he took it to a meeting he was at, so 1/2 is gone... )
B- oatmeal with 1/2 banana/raspberries/skim milk;
S - hard boiled egg, 3 crackers
L - Out - some sort of salad most likely
S - salmon spread (i.e. salmon/cream cheese, spices)
D - ?? DH hasn't decided if he wants to go out today or tomorrow, or at all.... Men! Oh, a small piece of cake!
Ok, time to own up and start posting here because I am getting out of hand!
B: granola bar (I overslept)
L: roasted turkey on wheat bread, pickle, corn chips
S: two cookies at conference
S: mixed nuts (while cooking dinner)
D: polenta w/ spinach, tomatoes, and peas (from Trader Joe's), annie's chocolate graham bunnies for dessert
annnnd.... 2 and a half glasses of wine
I think my I need a little bit of work here. Today and recent days have not been horrible, but not nutritious enough and I want to get back to eating well!
Today:
E: 7.5 miles at the park
B: 1/2 pb&j, black coffee before run
L: grilled chicken salad
S: more coffee
D: ground turkey breast chili - DH made it and it had fabulous flavor, was low sodium & lo-cal! Had some multigrain saltines & a beck's light with it
S: mayfield cookie dough ice cream - discovered it today, only 160 cals per serving! Lower than the froyo I had planned on getting.
And that means that Friday night is free. Today is DH's birthday, so I have to plan a piece of cake into my day. (I made it yesterday and he took it to a meeting he was at, so 1/2 is gone... )
