Planning for Thursday 7/6

  • Alright--I do post my food in the 100 Club section, but posting in multiple places can only help to hold me even more accountable, right?

    SusanB, as excellent an idea as the giant bowl of veggies is, I happen to be vegetably impaired I did slice up 2 pounds of fresh strawberries, though, so it's a step in the right direction. Tomorrow's food plan:
    • whole-wheat tortilla w/fat-free cream cheese and strawberry slices
    • glass of skim milk
    • reduced-sugar instant oatmeal
    • salad (already prepared and ready to go: spinach, strawberries, almonds, chicken, cabbage, and broccoli with light Asian sesame dressing)
    • yogurt
    • pumpkin dessert (basically pumpkin pie filling without the crust--baked 6 of them over the weekend using Splenda and a little honey instead of sugar--VERY filling for about 250 calories)
    • Subway dinner
    Now, we always have Subway on Thursday nights. What I'm going to try to do is transition away from my usual 12" sub to using wraps instead of bread--WAY fewer calories. In fact, if I remember correctly, 2 sweet onion chicken teriyaki wraps are barely more calories than just a 6" sub on bread. I'll also work to cut out the Subway cookies I normally get with my meal. At something like 250 calories a pop, who needs 'em?!

    Additional plans include: at least 3 liters of water throughout the day (not including any additional diet soda) and walking up the 4 flights of stairs to my apartment when I get home from work.

    I always have a pretty good plan in place--now I just need to STICK with it!

  • ha, 5:44am and already a change to my plan--but at least I'm here to fess up, right? It's not too horrible...breakfast has changed from the whole-wheat tortilla w/ff cream cheese, strawberries, and glass of milk to a bowl of low-fat granola cereal w/skim milk and a sliced banana. It's my last bowl of cereal, though--the box is now empty! Even though it's low in fat, the cereal is a bit high in calories and sugar, and I can only blame those few almond slivers mixed in there so much for the calories
