    reflections ~ boy, am I eating a lot this week. Wish I didn't have crackers in the house. I'm finding them hard to resist.

  • I don't keep crackers in my house because I'm worried I'd do the same thing, scarf them all down. I'm almost afraid to have the sugar free ice cream bars here. They're 80 calories a piece and I'm mostly sticking to one a day, though one day I had two...

    Tuesday 7/20
    Oatmeal
    Veggie breakfast patty

    Lunch
    Lean Cuisine basil chicken
    1/2 oz cheese

    Dinner
    1 cup vegetable soup from Panera bread
    Sourdough roll
    1/2 portion of Panera Bread's ceasar chicken salad

    Snack
    Sugar free ice cream bar
  • Hi Scuttle. I'm going to have to update this later. I'm leaving town in a few minutes for the weekend and just realized I already packed my journal. I'm planning to check in while away this time.

    Veggie wrap sandwich from Publix (12" sundried tomato tortilla, 1-1.5 oz cheese, lots of veggies, oil and some kind of probably calorie-laden sauce)

    Snack
    Handful of animal crackers (I stopped counting when I realized a grabbed fistful is less than the 16-cracker serving anyway)

    Dinner
    Angus steakburger at Burger King (640 calories! But big and good for a burger craving and not too horrible, all in all)

    Snack
    Sugar free ice cream bar
