Ugh, started out the day well, trying to recover from pizza, but ended up at a friend's house for dinner. She bought enormous cheesy chicken enchiladas from Costco. I can't even imagine the calorie count of something like that.

B - 1/2 cup pumpkin flax granola, organic maple yogurt

S - strawberries

L - Was out running errands so I grabbed a Vietnamese-style chicken wrap from Trader Joe's, pretty tasty but almost 400 calories!

S - orange

S - baby carrots

D - a little over half of an enormous chicken, cheese enchilada (I opened it up and ate out the chicken as much as possible). I still ate a LOT of cheese. I had salad on the side but she only had 3 dressings, all creamy (which I NEVER eat). I had a little bit of lite ceasar on the side (which still had twice the fat/calories of my regular dressing). I did the best I could and the visit was good, but UGH.

I wasn't hungry, I just couldn't help keep myself from munching! I dunno... I've gotten plenty of sleep this week, and though I've been a little blah my mood hasn't been terrible. I think my food's been sufficient. I think I was just bored, b/c since I took a new position at work last July I've spent more time at my desk? Maybe that's it? I need to figure this out...

My weight is UP a lb. to 147 today. Not sure if it's all the fiber-rific cereal from Wednesday or my stupid BC pills or both (or neither?). I have had some trouble with food this week but this is getting very frustrating.
