Hey Bubbly, welcome! Feel free to add me as a friend on MFP if you'd like (same user name).

Yesterday I started tracking on MFP instead of Spark People now that I have a tablet and can scan foods. MFP's app is free and SP's is $3.99 which I think is ridiculous with all the free weight loss stuff out there. Anyway, MFP always gives me a lower calorie range than SP so now my goal has changed from 1280 - 1630 with SP (my personal goal was to stay under 1500 because that seemed more reasonable) to 1340 with MFP.

Goal - 1340 max

Yesterday

Breakfast: Homemade Iced Coffee, Egg Beater, 1/2 Sandwich Thin, Raspberry Yogurt - 388

Lunch: 1/4 Homemade Veggie Hoagie stuffed with sauteed onions, mushrooms, roasted red peppers and smoked pepper jack cheese, EatingWell's Quick Beef and Barley Soup - 344

Dinner: Beef and Barley Soup, slice of wheat bread, 1 tablespoon peanut butter - 407

Snacks: Apple, Fat Free Devils Food Cookie - 105

Total - 1242

Hey all! I haven't been by here in a while. I fell off the wagon majorly and gained about 20 lbs. Anyway, I'm starting over.

Yesterday was bad. Especially considering that was supposed to be the first day of my "diet." I had a binge, I'm guestimating it ended up being around 3000 calories for the whole day.

So starting over!

Today: weigh in-195.6 lbs
Breakfast-1 serving Quadratini Hazelnut Wafers, black tea-160 cals
Lunch-Avocado and honey sandwich, cheese sandwich-450 cals
Dinner- Beef and barley soup, dinner roll-345 cals
Snack- chocolate pudding, vanilla wafers, almonds-302 cals

Overall-1257 cals. woohoo!

Feb 28- weigh in 196 (what?)
Breakfast-32 oz coke (aaghhh!)-400 cals
Lunch-grilled chicken sandwich and fries (no!)-770 cals
So far-1170 cals. Maybe I can salvage today if I have a very light dinner.
