Hi All! I'm loving this thread!!!

My day so far...

Breakfast: 1 Cranberry/Orange Soy Muffin (180 Cal)

Lunch: Salad with 1/2 chicken breast, shredded LF chedder cheese, fruit cup, 120 cals of crisp bread

Snack: Italian soda with half the normal pumps of syrup

Dinner: Haven't had it yet, but planning on having Barilla plus (protein enriched) pasta with garlic tomato sauce and possibly some low fat chedder.

I may or may not have an after-dinner snack, depending on how hungry I am! I need to go grocery shopping...I realized this morning that we were out of fruit, hence the fruit cup in my lunch! The italian soda wasn't the best choice, but asking for it with half the usual syrup is an improvement on the usual.

Walked about 40 minutes total (to and from work) and I'm hoping to hit up the gym tonight (although it depends, because my bf is ill, and he usually spots for me!). If I don't make it to the gym I'll do something else...lots of situps and pushups probably.

Keep up the good work everyone, you're all doing fantastic today!

scratch the pasta...I ended up having a tuna melt and salad instead...tuna with low fat mayo on two thin slices of bread (it was white though :'() and a bit of cheese on top, broiled. The salad had low fat French dressing on it.

m1 - 7 am - oatmeal, flax, soy milk, eggwhite omelette
m2 - 10 am - 1/2c chickpeas, 3-4oz tuna, 1T olive oil, 1T lemon juice
m3 - noon - greek salad w/grilled chicken breast
m4 - 3 pm - cc and yogurt
m5 - 6 pm - 1c white rice, 3 oz salmon, raw mushrooms

it's 8:30 am here i am..and just to let you all know, i am the weirdest breakfast eater ever..

- half a cup of tofu with broccoli
- 3/4 cup of veggie soup
- 6 small pieces of papaya

... and melba toast with peanutbutter, a fruit tray someone gave to the staff, a scoop of potato salad, a couple slices of roast beef ...

lets see...not a great afternoon. Stress eating, not out of coping problems, but because my stomach was upset.

snack 2 - apple and a few macadamias. Then the unplanned part which involved nibbling on the kids crackers as I cleaned up, eating the prunes from dd's plate, a large fig bar, and I am sure there was something else mindless in there.

Dinner - salad and homemade whole wheat turkey pepperoni pizza - 2 slices planned, 1 emotional. chocolate.

Bed time snack - strawberries and yogurt, more than I needed.
