Oh.. man today wasn't good... I weigh myself every Saturday and today I lost 0.4lbs which is better than nothing I guess ---I bet I just reversed that loss from this though.. ---..
I woke up pretty late and realised I have a lot of baking to do and little time, So I didn't have much time to think about food choices because I was stuck baking all day for big parties coming up and I had to make cake.. rice krispies, cookies... I was bound to mess up I made the cake put it in the oven but licked the bowl, spoon.. everything and I couldn't stop myself from going into binge mode straight after which explains the rice cakes. I feel so out of control I'm not too sure what to do right now.. I still want to stuff my face mad with junk! I think it has to do with the fact I am really dehydrated today all I had was a cup of milk and nothing else yet so I think I need to drink a lot of water to get out of this binge-mode.. No matter what, I must do better tomorrow and get back on the wagon!

Good Sunday morning to ya all! Sundays are my day off so no posting for me. Baco...just wanted to comment on your hot dogs. My DH loves Hebrew national hotdogs but we quit buying them because of the high fat content. Then we discovered the 99% fat free, oh my gosh these are good. We always have an extra package of these in our freezer when we want hot dogs. I buy the lower calorie hot dog buns too and it makes a really low calorie entree. I'll continue with my menu on Monday, not that it changes very much. Have a skinny day.
I just realized that I spend A LOT of calories on snacks... oh well, I prefer it that way. Also, didn't realize the "orange chicken" was meatless till after I made it, was actually very tasty! I think I'm going to have some peanut butter and toast soon, I'm low on calories (not a hungry day)
February 14, Monday ... calories 631 + 43 grams fiber Breakfast: 248 calories + 18 g fiber Fiber One, Vanilla Yogurt, Chunky Applesauce, vitamins, Flax and Chia seeds, 1 Tablespoon molasses in coffee A.M. snack: calories + g fiber Lunch: calories 104 + 15 g fiber More cereal, 2 oz. applesauce and 2 oz. skim milk Supper: calories 144 + 9 g fiber 13 oz. Lentil Tomato soup Nite Snack: calories 136 + 2 g fiber dry Honey Nut Cheerios + 1/5 oz. tart cherry juice Gab: Happy Valentine's day! I ate too much junk yesterday while visiting my dad and my MIL plus last nite DH made Taco's, refried beans and all the fixin'. Today I'm going try and undo all the damage I did yesterday and last night. (A partial FAST) I'll probably eat another breakfast for lunch and not sure what I'll do for supper. DH is having left-over tacos, I'm not going near them. I retain water easily, scale is up 3 pounds today. I know that's mostly water but still ticks me off.
Today wasn't so easy, went to a party and they all prepared massive chocolate covered strawberries, ice cream sundays, and loads of chocolate, cakes and other pastries I felt a little overwhelmed and anxious being around all those trigger foods for me. I actually didn't have any! There was a bowl of plain strawberries and a can of whip cream so I settled with that and it was delish! On my way out they handed out a gift basket of cupcakes and cake slices left over and now they are stuck here with me in the house! I am going to only save a few things and try to give most away.

Bumblebee - nice job not having any of the sweets at the party today! It's really tough in those situations.
Went out to dinner for V-day tonight with my husband, and so had to try to count for all the ingredients I suspect were in what I ate. I think the calories are probably pretty close, but I'm hoping I over-estimated the fat (I just assumed 2 T. olive oil, 2 T. butter, and 2 T. cream in the roasted squash dish). Still, I'm really happy with how I did today - I controlled my eating early in the day so that I could have dinner, wine and dessert tonight, and this planned high-calorie day came in a little lower than I thought it would (my goal was to keep it under 2000 cals). I also managed to fit in a good workout in the early evening, so I burned a bit too. I've been stuck right around 261 lbs for the past two days, so I'm hoping a little that my higher cal meal will kick me into gear again like my one last week did. We'll see tomorrow on the scale!

My eye lids aren't puffy anymore either. (I didn't actually lose 2 pounds, I just got rid of the retained water from Sunday nite salty supper)
