  • Busy today with school. For starters, I woke up late (9:30!) so I had to rush to make it to class and thus missed breakfast.

    11:45 am

    Apple - 90

    6:45 pm
    Cheese Stick - 80
    Grilled Shrimp atop Salad - 300
    Iced Tea - 120

  • WhitWhit, was 900 calories all you ate yesterday?

    Here's my journal for yesterday. Last night was the weekly America's Next Top Model watch party. I finally got to eat some pepperoni pizza with everyone else, as my weekly splurge meal. I ate 1 too many pieces of pizza and shouldn't have had the choclate cake, but no big complaints. It was yummy and it didn't trigger a binge or anything. I felt too full and that's probably a good thing, because these days I know that I don't enjoy feeling that way.

  • Quote: WhitWhite, was 900 calories all you ate yesterday?
    I guess so. I usually try to stay at 1200-1300 cals. I was super busy yesterday, which made for a bad day food wise. When I wake up late, I'm thrown off. Although I got a ton of work done for school and such, I was rushing around and had to eat whenever I could.

    Today will be better...more cals and such.

    Note: Also, I try to eat light throughout the day because I have a gastrointestinal disorder. It takes longer for my food to digest and eating large meals or eating often puts unnecessary stress on my digestive system.
  • Good job on getting lots of school work done.


  • Well, I had a good day yesterday. I hope everyone else did too.

I've started each day off well ... but by the afternoon it's the same old story.
