Here we are at the end of the month already (I won't even talk about the end of summer... ) Let's all have great transitions from one month to the next by staying on plan!
I've already signed up for the September monthly challenge and urge all of you to join me in a united front of 4 point days all the way (or at least shoot for no zero point days for the month). Go Team!!
After my unmentionable weekend (although you will be happy to know it was not as wildly off-plan as such weekends tend to be), I'm back for a fresh Monday:
about 1250 calories total

Hi PJ! I saw your post over in the Support forum and was going to invite you to check us out here at the 100 lb. club, but it looks like you beat me to it! To participate in the journal buddy thread you do just what you did, list your eats each day as a way to hold yourself and everyone else accountable. Plus it's a good way to give and get tips and advice based on what works or not for everyone. So, please make yourself at home and feel free to jump in on any of the threads you like. The support you'll find here is unbeatable!
Welcome, SicknTired.
I haven't posted here for the last couple of days because things are so hectic I simply haven't had the time. I've been OP though, and getting in over 30 minutes cardio. Not much variety in my food today. It was good sauce though.

Breakfast: 6¼ oz banana shake. Lunch: 1 cup pasta, ½ cup home-made pasta sauce*, small green salad. Dinner: 1 cup pasta, ½ cup home-made pasta sauce, 2 oz gouda, naked coleslaw. Snacks: 5 Altoids apple sours. Drinks: 500 ml coffee, ½ cup 0% milk, 2 litres water, 2 beers (355 ml each).
Hi everyone, I'm doing ok, lost 1lb last week. I've just been real busy at work and with PT... I swear, I'm going to need PT Anonymous soon.
Today's my last day in the office until next Wednesday, so I won't be around until then. I have a wedding in Lake Tahoe, CA. Actually I'm a bridemaid, funny, when I brought the dress in to be altered, I bought it in May, the tailor said it would be easier for him to take it apart and re-sew it! Now, that's results!
Have a great long weekend everyone and I'll see you all in September!
Welcome to the accountability thread, PJ! Record your eats and exercise every day to show yourself (and us) what's working for you. If you discover any foods, recipes or tips to help with the battle, please pass them on!
Have fun at the wedding in your re-sewn bridesmaid dress, Beth (wow, THAT'S a true measure of how well you're doing.) Good for you!
A few people are MIA...I'll start with Jennelle. Yoo hoo, where are you? Time to check in, NOW!

That's great about the frock, Beth. You're doing really well.
I love nectarines, Apryl. All the ones I've found here are rock hard or have very little flavour though.
And Jill, I've started to like Kashi Go Lean! When I went to the store get another box they were all out and I was actually disappointed! I picked up some Nature's Path Optimum Slim instead and guess what? I like that too! Same kcal count (as Canajun Kashi, not Yankee ) and a rather healthy 11 g fibre per cup. See what 3FC has done--I'd never eaten breakfast cereal in my life until you lot got me onto it.
My posting may be a bit sporadic over the next week or so. We're trying to get SIL into a place of her own a.s.a.p. so I haven't got much free time. I really don't take well at all to sharing my home, but I'm less stressed by it all than I expected. I'm sure healthy eating and exercise is the reason for this.
Tues 30/08:
Breakfast: 1 cup Optimum Slim cereal, ½ cup 0% milk. Lunch: 3 large sushi maki rolls. Dinner: 4 jalapeno-stuffed olives, salad (lollo rosso, onion, radishes, red pepper, romaine, spinach, tomato), dressing (1 tsp. olive oil, 2 tsp. white wine vinegar), 1 tblsp. each of sliced almonds & sunflower kernels. Drinks: 750 ml coffee, ½ cup 2% milk, 2½ litres water, Starbuck's grande FF cappuccino, 4 martinis.
Total kcals: 1599 (plus free veggies)
Exercise: 4 miles WATP, 40 minute bike ride.

Reason: Finalising eats
I was back on track yesterday until last night. My allergies are really really acting up. I've never had them so bad. I'm guessing that is where my energy went. I took some children's benadryl this morning and it helped a bit. I still have the killer headache behind my right eye though. I started journaling yesterday and I honestly don't remember what I ate yesterday after the potluck at work. (I did try to get another piece of cheesecake but it fell in the floor. Tried to get another piece and dropped the whole pan so it wasn't meant for me to have more cheesecake.)
I am back to journaling today.
B-oatmeal
L-chunky baked potato soup and 2 slices bread
AS-chocolate doughnut
Prop. D-Hamburger helper and 2 veggies
I'm going to try and head to bed early with some allergy medicine, kids permitting of course.
Haven't posted the last two days. Have been under my kcal limit drinking my water and 1 WATP 3 mile. Since I didn't lose the last two weeks which coincides with me starting to eat things with artificial sweeteners, I am cutting those out this week to see if I get a different result.
Also for September am switching from counting kcals to the 3 hour diet. I eat about the same amount of kcals either way but I find with the 3 hour sytem I eat a more nutritious mix of foods and less sweets.
See ya all
Denise
