Paperclippy I applaud you! You come in here day after day, driven and determined posting your eats. I admire you for that.
I also love how you post the caloric values to each of your foods... Thank you for doing that. I am a WW points gal livening up my program by comparing points and calories. Trust me when I say its been very enlightening.
You inspire me so very much. I pop in everyday to see how your doing and I tell myself... I'm going to join her. Then one thing leads to another and I end up waiting for a new week. Well you can see where thats gotten me. I really would love to join you.
I lost 64 pounds while living in the States last year. Which put me 6 pounds from Maintainance. YaY me! I returned to Austria regaining 7 of those pounds. Life style change, different foods, going from a busy waitress to a sahm. My activity level has dropped dramatically. ( I know thats my key and my struggle. ) For the past two and half months I have been holding my own not gaining anymore then the intial 7. I am more then ready to commit again and finally shed the last 13!
So would you like some extra company? Because I would love to be it.
Sassy, you are absolutely 100% welcome to join me! So is anyone else! I feel like kind of a dork posting a whole weekly thread by myself.
Not all my calorie counts are totally accurate, some are guesses. I get most of my numbers from fitday.com or calorie-count.com, or if my recipes list them, from there.
If being so driven makes you a dork... Then I want to be a dork too!! Driven Dorks Determined to be Diva's... I'm in!!
My calorie counts come from either, Myfitnesspal.com ( a tracker like fitday that I find easier. ) , the food packages themselves, or Masterchef for my own recipes. If you dont have Masterchef or a program like it, I would be happy to run any recipes through for you.
Yesterday was not an A-typical day for me. With Easter preparations coupled with a family fun night at the bowling alley. It was pretty easy to sway off the normal eats.

Oh I know! Children's choice that night. Had that pizza been at home though, it would of been topped with all sorts of veg.
I would consider your 3 hour cultural excursion exercise. You were moving and giving your eyes a visual treat! Most people do that with an IPOD for their ears. Same premise though, movement and mental stimulation to keep you moving for longer. 3 hours is a good stretch even if you did pause here and there.

I cooked yesterday for the Holiday. Which is a good bad thing... Good because I get to choose what goes on the table. Bad when a major spread is due to on the table by 2:30-ish I dont eat before hand. ( Saving my calories/appetitite. Twisted thinking from years gone past. ) I kept telling myself no worries dinner is early enough I would snack later. But what wound up happening was that I ate one huge, albeit healthy meal...
