Food Tracker
 

Just a place to come to, to post your daily food intake, points, calories, carbs, water intake...whatever you keep track of...instead of looking for that pesky notebook that you keep misplacing! Oh...that's me! Sorry. :o

So far today:

broccoli and cheese omelette, 5:30 am
2 eggs
last night's leftover steamed broccoli
2 slices of American cheese
2 cups black coffee
8 oz water.

snack, 8:30am
handful of walnuts

another snack...11:30 am
2 slices of swiss cheese
2 tsp mayo and broccoli sprouts....rolled up inside...
Hey, don't laugh! I need to be creative!

***Now, do you see why I need to keep track of my grazing? :moo:

Lunch...Well, I never really got around to that...I went to pick my daughter up from school...usually takes two hours, total, there and back....I left here at 2:30 and did not get back home til 6ish...Lovely, rainy weather we're having...well, that and missing the turnoff for the expressway and having to take the horrible alternate route in rush hour, Friday afternoon traffic... :crazy: :censored: :bomb: :stress: :eek: I must say...I would be a mass murdering lunatic if I had to do that everyday! Daughter was starving...so I even pulled into a Wendy's drive up and she got something. It would have been so easy to just grab any old thing and say, "well I haven't eaten yet..." That, combined with frustration could have turned into a real chow fest....but I waited til I got home.

So, with no further ado, here's what I had for dinner:

Eggplant Lasagna...Sbd recipe, I will post in recipes
A slice of Guiltless Pumpkin pie.... yum...will post this also.
Liight Cool Whip

I must say, that I did nibble on the cheese a bit as I was making the dish...(before the long journey...if I had to cook AFTER that trip, it might have been a whole different story!

Moral of the story: BE PREPARED!

Oh yes...I drank a gallon of water yesterday! Literally! I measured out a gallon, and just drank that all day long. glug glug

This is really keeping me in line for some reason...

Anyway...here goes Sunday:

Snack: 2 slices Muenster cheese

Lunch: 4:30pm
1 can tuna, onions, celery, mayo

Dinner: 7:30pm
(still full from "lunch")...we went out, so I ordered a Chef Salad to bring to work tonight and had a bowl of French Onion Soup.

S: fat/sugar free fudgsicle

Here's where things get muddled...I was SO BUSY last night, I never got a chance to tackle my salad, (which was so big, I shared it with three other girls!) til about 5:30 this morning. Is it Dinner, Part 2? :shrug: Breakfast? :no: I think I'll count it as dinner. At any rate, this is what I had:

Chef Salad, which consisted of lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, tomatoes, peppers, onions, olives, roast beef/turkey/ham/cheese rolled up and sliced. I had roasted red pepper dressing on the side, maybe about 2 tbsp.

Hey Kat - Thought I'd join you here. First morning of South Beach. I am still trying to read through the book and prepare. DH is gone till Wednesday so we are going full force then. :)

Breakfast 9:30am:
Egg whites with Spinach, Onion & 1 slice swiss cheese
Turkey Bacon - 2 slices
Drinking water and Crystal Light

Snack 11:45 am:
1% Cottage Cheese

Lunch 1:20pm:
Grilled Chix Breast on salad - mixed lettuce, bit of egg, onion, olives & chickpeas
Dressing - Blue Cheese (1T) - No sugar, low carbs (I guess that was ok)
Few bites of squash a friend wanted me to try.
Iced Tea

Afternoon Snacks:
String Cheese (4:30)
Pistachios (3:00)

Dinner:
Pistachio Grilled Chix Salad - Didn't like the dressing. Recipe in SB Book. Chix was yummy.

Dessert:
Chocolate Ricotta

Grabs a few peanuts here and there. I know I had too many nuts today.

How does that sound??? I am going to try to incorporate more veggies with snack time, but I have to plan that ahead. The other things are just so simple to throw in a bag.

Not looking forward to the cravings -- I am so use to having oatmeal, granola bars and fruit.

:D Barb

Sounds good, Barb...I try to get as many veggies in as I can...get some nice Italian or Caesar dressing...I think it's 3 gms of carbs or less in the dressings. They say don't get the low fat dressing because, they generally have more sugar in them.

About cravings: I noticed that when I omitted the carbs, i really did not crave them at all. Even the first days I was on program. It sounds like you are well prepared for your new adventure! I'm glad to have you join me here!

That said...I'm having a total meltdown PMS day today, so I'm not going to post my bad choices...I shouldn't have gone so long without eating last night...I came home ravenous and just started to graze...good stuff at first and then...evil laugh...my inner carb shark came out of hiding...let's just say it wasn't pretty. :cbg:

I'm chalking today up to PMS and moving on. I'm going to the gym this afternoon, taking two classes again: Body Pump and Step. That will get me back where I need to be.

Hi Kat - Sorry to hear about the PMSing day! I can relate - thank goodness it was last week for me! The hardest thing for me will be no fruit for the next couple weeks. I have cut out a lot of the bread, potatos, rice, etc. over the past year so hopefully my body won't even notice!!

Good job going to the gym this afternoon!!! :)

Hi ladies,

I'll join in:

Breakfast
Eggbeaters omelet with small amount of ham and cheese

Lunch:
Thai Chicken Salad - lots of foofoo lettuce (looked like something they feed animals at the zoo), small amount of chicken, water chestnuts, snow pea pods, a sesame/sweet/sour dressing

Snack:
cashews
Kudo bar

Dinner: (this was a phase 2 meal)
roast beef (4 oz )
boiled potatoes
carrots

no evening snacks

back on track...
 

Hey, Terri! Glad to have you join us! The more, the merrier! This way we can compare and maybe get a few new ideas...I hate to eat the same thing over and over.

I haven't eaten yet today, but this is what I'm contemplating:

Breakfast:
oatmeal with walnuts, splenda, cinnamon
coffee

Lunch:
egg salad served over garden salad: lettuce, cukes, tomatos, whatever's there

Dinner:
Chicken Marsala, served over mashed cauliflower
green beans

Snacks: I've already got my chocolate sf/ff pudding made to combat any PMS cravings.

Also, cantelope chunks with cottage cheese...for work tonight.

That's it!

And now, I'm off to the gym...Step class at 10...I may stay and take the Pilates class afterwards.

Hi Food Friends! :)

Yesterday - food was pretty good - grazed a lot, but didn't eat anything off plan. Didn't get in enough veggies.

Today:

Early snack (7:30am):

Egg whites w/ spinach, onion & feta

Morning Snack:
Green Beans

Lunch:

Opps:
The Fruit basket arrived from DH - had few pieces (hey, it could be worse, right?)

PM Snack:
1% Cottage Cheese
30 pistachio Nuts

Planned Dinner:
I grazed on fruit through the afternoon and had a slice of cheese and ham when I got home. I may just have an egg or something simple tonight and skip dinner. I know, not great, but I feel a little bad about all the fruit and I am a feeling like an emotional wreck at the moment. I am going to force myself to exercise and then get comfy for the evening. Maybe some nice herbal tea will help. :?:

Planned Dessert:
SF Jello or SF popsicle - I find the popsicles really help my sweet tooth!

How's everyone else doing on food?

Hi! I know I haven't been keeping up with the Food Tracker --- but I have been keeping my journal! :D

Melissa - where are your fruits and veggies???
:?: :cool: :p

barb -
guilty as charged :( I haven't had any in a few days. I find eating fresh fruits and veggies harder because i'm so busy...i dont know..i have a hard time eating fruit a lot of the time, because it's supposed to be good for me, yet it has all those calories...I do eat several servings of fruit salad a week though (melons, and occasionally I'll eat one of those canned fruit cups ...the 'lite' kind that is prepared with real fruit juice...)

oh, i also thought i would mention i drink at least two 1 liter bottles of water a day, or the equivelant...I just dont track the foods that have zero calories.

If any of you like orange-y tasting drinks (like tang)..crystal light has a YUMMY orange flavored drink (they put them in the frozen foods aisle for some reason). Also, walmart has wonderful flavored waters...and..hmm...I doubt any of you have Market Baskets in your areas, but they have good flavored water too..

I'm probably going to get brain cancer from all the sugar substitute i've been inhaling lately...

Hey, just checking in - I'm not going to post what I ate today because I found an old WW tracker..we're talking ancient..it's at least ten years old..it opens top to bottom :x....anyways I stayed under points..AND i had two servings of fruit ;)
