I must also add that I let the nurse weigh me yesterday (I usually decline out of embarrassment at weight gain) and I was 159 wearing 4 pounds of clothing and shoes! I had jeans and tennis shoes on and weighed before and after getting dressed before I left that morning, so I know that for sure. My scale at home just may be a pound or two heavy, which is FINE BY ME!!!
157.6 this morning (up .2 water, no biggie)
B - Belvita
L - steamed broccoli/canned chicken breast
D - turkey burgers sound good with kale salad (DH will probably agree)
S - pear apple
need to go to the gym and do arms...maybe ride bikes again. We rode 12 miles yesterday
No change in weight today. Sitting steady at 168.4lbs which is a little high for me (I like to be 165-ish). Calories will be about 1500. I am in the middle of a three day party. There have been several colleagues leaving from work so there have been after work drinks several days this week. I have kept my food in check though, which matters most for me. I will be off running tonight and drinking again. Can't wait for the weekend to get some rest from partying!

Kelijpa, there's a million cottage cheese loaf recipes online but hubby used a Dr. Oz one.
So, I found the secret to not overeating. Xanax!!! Lol After 5 days of restless sleep and anxiety after my car accident my doctor gave me a tiny dose to take the edge off. It calmed me down and stopped my teeth clenching and the urge to eat all in one swoop.
Today's food-
Bean and kale soup
Honeydew
Chicken breast with green onion white sauce
Melon in yogurt
Side salad
CoolMom I'm glad the meds have helped you. I have never heard of a cottage cheese loaf. I will have to look that up. I doubt that my DH would ever even try it.
Mars Oh, my, that was definitely a party at WF. Sounds fun! That would be hard to pass up.

Dinner wasn't too bad, actually it was quite good, not my usual Thursday night meal, but still feeling good. We had a great visit with them, that's the important thing.
I messed up last night. I did the run. 5 miles. It was fun. But they had fried chicken at the end and you can guess the rest. This goes to show that you can do too much cardio. I did too much, got hungry and ate junk. So up 1.8lbs today to 170.2lbs. I need to get back in the 160s ASAP.
