Today I officially called the WW experiment a fail for me. It's just not good with my particular food issues though I know it's worked really well for some people (a friend just hit 41 lbs lost with WW and is doing great). I reopened my handy dandy desktop FitDay app today and I'm back to portion control via calorie counting. This maintenance stuff is more work than I ever imagined. I always regained in the past because I just didn't realize how big a commitment this would be. I'm glad every day that I am sticking with this though. I am so worth it
Phase 2:
S: (slow start this morning) - small banana & lots of coffee
B: egg, refried beans, spinach or broccoli & salsa
L: giant salad with hummus
S: kefir, cantaloupe
D: cabbage and white beans, veggie burgers
wine if I'm within my calories and exercise
Good for for sticking with it Cyndi! Enjoy your walk in the sun!

Walking, if you count spending an hour in stores and walking to stores as walking
I am still tracking on WW. Partly old habits die hard, I guess. Its also a safety net in case I stray or slip, because this time, my goal is losing weight, not doing ANYTHING perfectly. I know to be "perfect"
on SB, I need to eat more vegetables, and I will work on that
B - decaf coffee w/sf creamer, 2 eggs, 1 turkey bacon and v-8
L - leftover spaghetti squash deep dish pie
S - 1 cup ff plain greek yogurt w/sf jam, 1 oz pecans and truvia
D - the last of the leftover spaghetti squash deep dish pie (sorry to see it go but time to move on to something new)
Breakfast: 2 egg omelet with tomato, red peppers, onions, 2% cheese, LF sour cream and salsa; 6-8 oz V8; 2 cups coffee with ¼ cup 1% milk and artificial sweetener - Vitamins
Snack: Yogurt with 1/8 t SF lemon jello powder
Lunch: Chicken crackslaw
Dinner: Salad w/ lots of veggies, little bit of turkey pepperoni and homemade Italian Dressing; 1 slice of WW Pizza w/ Turkey Pepperoni, Mozzarella Cheese, Red Pepper, Onion, Green Olives and Cherry Tomatoes
Snack: Choc PB “Ice Cream”
Ran late again today and missed my apple for my afternoon snack... I need to go to bed earlier, so that I get up earlier, so that I eat breakfast earlier... you get the idea.
