Morning ladies!

I'm feeling SOOOO much better than yesterday. I guess I had some level of food poisoning, not the stomach flu as I originally thought. I stopped having GI issues yesterday afternoon. I didn't think I ate much, but apparently I ate within my calorie range, so I'm happy about that. Means that I won't gain unnecessary poundage by being drastically under calories and then eating normally. Cool.

Yesterday's confessions

Breffix - 4 slices of whole wheat toast with butter scraped on them (500 cals)

Lunch - 3 slices of CPK frozen pizza (375 cals)

Snack - 2 burfis, 1 banana, 1 bag 100 cal popcorn (450 cals)

Dinner - 1 cup cooked white rice, 1 cup chickpea curry (450 cals)

Total for the day: 1775

Haven't eaten yet today, so will get tonight's confessions in later on...

Hope everyone's having a good day! Cape, how are you feeling?

Today was a crappy day. I'll categorize it as slip-ups.

I'm still out of whole grain bread so I have to eat white rice for dinner. And I ate chocolate bread for snack -- which only results in an increase of appetite.

My snack doesn't stop. I consumed a fried, battered cauliflower and a whole breast of chicken katsu -- as a snack. HOW DARE ME? O_O

At dinner...I ate another fried, battered enoki mushroom, fried eel and chinese vegetables, and some tofu with seafoods.

Totally a slip up.

Another pound overnight!??!? I can't believe this! It has to be water, TOM is on Sunday... I hope it's just that.

141.2

Wednesdays just must be cursed!!
I did semi OK during the day...but at band practice I had 2 light beers...and then of course, b/c a)dont have much in the house right now that is on my plan and b) beer makes me get the munchies...and I know that but I still had 2!!...I came home and had a baked potato at 10 o'clock at night!!! ugh...
damn!
my Bro has an apple tree so tonight I'm going to go get a box...and live on apples until Sat when it's grocery day!!
Thursday...so far...1 egg plus 1 egg white for breakfast, cereal with a pkt of stevia, and skim milk, and lots of water!!.

Today is the prep for the endoscopy and colonoscopy so no solid food only liquid mixed with nasty tasting medicine. I am not going to weigh myself for a few days, I am sure they will weigh me tomorrow at the doctor's office and that is okay but I am going to ignore the weight. I will weigh in again on Labor Day as I have a goal to weigh 235.

Did some callanetics for about 10 minutes, just the warm up exercises. I ordered a book of the exercises and will keep doing what I remember from years and years ago when I used to do them.

I did well today except for the Mountain Dew, which I never buy, I was just so thristy and there it was tempting me....

Morning ladies!

I was bad yesterday: 1. Overate at lunch (at work, which is rare for me)
2. Had a huge salad for dinner, but then: 2 or 3 bowls of cereal, then an entire bag of microwave popcorn (lower fat kind but whole bag is about 360 cal), then 2 fiber 1 blueberry muffins.
Then went to bed early due to my "food coma."

I know I keep saying this, but TRULY goint to aim for a better day. Shouldn't be as stressed today...

Morning DogMom! Sorry to hear about your food coma. I hate it when that happens! That's why I have to avoid going over my carb ration for the day. It's definitely difficult to stick to plan when you are stressed. I've been there before - everything processed and totally bad for you just called to me during those times. I found that when I carried extra fruit or oatmeal bars, I wasn't as eager to attack the vending machine. I also carried change in only $20 bills because I knew if I had smaller change, I would go to the vending machine.

Haven't eaten yet, so will check back in later.

It's been a while since Echo's checked in. Hope she managed to get her comp fixed!

Hey guys!!

I'm feeling a little better now, back down a bit, I think it's just got to be due to my period that I bounced up.

139.2

Today's going to be a good day, tuna for lunch, yoga after work, maybe a good lean cuisine for dinner.

Thanks! Have a great day gals!

My colonoscopy and endoscopy went well today and thanks so much for all the well wishes. I get results in a week and I did not have any polyps! I ate heavy today but stayed on plan and tomorrow I can start back with the fresh veggies and fruit.
