  • Ok, scratch my old goals.

    I only have 2 goal this time.

    1. I will stay POP on the weekends and every day until my KC trip. (Nov. 25th)
    As a reward for doing that and losing some weight I will buy myself a new necklace and earring set that I saw at Walmart.
    2. I will be under 250 by Christmas. I have a Dr's appointment arround that time, so I will trust that her scale is right and go by that as my weight. Plus, my grandma has a dr's scale at her business. I will double check my weight with grandmas.

    Snacks~ 1 cup cream curry broccoli soup, cottage cheese w/lemon

    I have to smarten up, or Im not going to meet any of my goals! Time to crack the whip!
  • Is summer sausage an approved food? I just ate about 5 slices of it with some cheese and now I'm kinda freakin'. (the package said 0 carbs but was wondering what you all thought)

    I walked 3 miles again today and my christmas present to myself came in the mail yesterday I'm not sure I'll be able to wait that long to use it though!

    breakfast: hamburger w/lettuce & mayo
    lunch: 5 slices of summer sausage & 2 sticks of cheese
  • Im not sure what summer sausage is but if the carb count is 0, your fine. You might find the salt will help you hold water, that should be about it.
  • You should be ok w/the summer sausage. But like Robin said, just make sure to watch the salt intake w/that. I'm back in "the game" so hopefully this week I've got things under control!!
  • Morning all!!!!!

    Busy day for me. Weigh in will be Wednesday...here's to being at 267 by then... it isn't looking to good though.

    Weekend was pretty good, on the run alot. Yesterday's food wasn't that good. I had a turkey dinner w/the family that was being put on by my brother's step daughter's youth group. Of course I ate the stuffing...I LOVE STUFFING!! For supper I had a McDonald's Filet o' Fish, half of a large fry and then 1/2 of a hot fudge sundae. NOT good food choices, just a stressful day. I was helping my grandparents pack up their house and it killed! Emotional wise. The movers are coming in today...so many memories. Today's food plan:

    Breakfast: 1 c. cooked ground beef (leftover from the chili's I am making to take over to my grandparents new home for everyone that is helping them unpack)

    Lunch: SFLC Shake

    Supper: I'm gonna try and do a salad before I leave to head over the grandparents to help unpack and feed the helpers. Otherwise my supper will be homemade chili, cornbread and whatever beverages are there......probably POP and not the diet kind. LOL

    Snacks:Not sure about

    Water:70ozs. (if I get to drinking!!)

    Exercise: 1 mile on the bike (back is feeling better and I need to ride like the wind)

    Have a great & OP day chickies!!
