Need to watch myself at breakfast-had WAY too much cereal. Didn't get enough sleep last night (about 4 hrs) and have worked from home today due to the weather. Dinner was totally an easy cop-out convenience choice. One of the maybe 2 times I've had fast food since Jan 1st! Sigh!
Tomorrow I'll be back in the office (and gym!) since the weather is getting better, so I'm sure it will be a better day as far as the quality of what I eat.

Thoughts: That is quite a bit of food for around 1300 calories! I have been really hungry the last two days, so I am trying for bulk, protein, and fiber to make me feel more satisfied.
I don't often eat packaged diet meals, but I made the rest of the family ham. I could have had a slice of ham, but I don't *really* enjoy it, and I don't like wasting calories on food I don't like. Then again, I didn't like the frozen dinner either, so might as well have had the ham.
B- Life cereal w/ milk; coffee w. FF cream and sugar- 385 L- WW Smart Ones Ziti and Cup of Apple Sauce-425 S- 2 oz honey roasted cashews-350 cal D- Subway 6 in blk forest ham sub and light lays; york peppermint pattie dessert-630 cal S-Rice Krispy Treat-88 cal
Exercise-45 min cardio (treadmill at 3.5 and elliptical; Wii workout this am and stretches) burned 590 cal
Net cal (budget and exercise)- 1312 of 1702 allotted
Thoughts: Better day today count wise, however, I think I need to break my cinnamon life cereal addiction! Yes, life is fairly ok as far as cereal goes, but the cinnamon kind is very sweet and I think that's kicking off my carb/sweets issues.
