Holy carb-heavy day!

Aw, thanks Chickadee for the happy anniversary wishes! We had a great time. I pigged out, but was somehow down this morning. I was fairly well behaved in that I only ate half of everything I ordered. Well, except for dessert. I ate 3/4 of that. Anyway, as of this monring I was down exactly 69 pounds. One more to go to hit a 70 pound loss!

Here's my plan for tomorrow:

B: English muffin with egg and cheese 230
S: Banana, Fiber One bar 240
L: English muffin pizza, green bean "fries" 290
S: Vitatop, popcorn 200
D: Turkey club sandwich, pretzels 350 (my son has lacrosse practice, and I'll eat there so I don't eat dinner too early and make myself hungry later)
S: SKinny Cow ice cream sandwich 150

Total: 1460 -- may throw something else in with dinner... for about 100 calories or so.
Exercise: ? Going to aim for 46 min HIIT, or will walk the fields with DD while my DS has practice, after I eat my dinner.
