There is a legitimate reason for this ~ Sushi Friday at Swan's Landing. I just called for reservations and found that they are not doing Sushi until Friday, Sept 1st. I starved myself all day for no reason. ARGGGGHHHHHHH
I still have to take my best friend to dinner (and the rodeo) afterwards.
Lunch
6" steak and cheese at Subway, with southwest sauce (450?)
Snack
1 oz cheese (110)
Fruit pack (80)
Dinner
BK Angus steak burger with ketchup (610)
BK frieds (340)
Total Thus Far: 1800
Not the best nutrition, alas. I'm really not sure if I should be eating 1400, 1600, or 1800 calories so I mix it up. I've decided that Friday is just going to be fast food burger day for me. Once a week, at the weight I'm at now, should be fine.
Yesterday (Friday) after a total of 150 calories by dinner time I had
2 glasses of wine (240)
a cosmopolotin (150)
a margarita (200)
salad with grilled ahi (200)
more salad 50
calimari (300)
1/4 roll (50)
So far today 1010 calories (it's noon) and I did get alot of exercise
I may go to a potluck family reunion this afternoon if Wil ever wakes from his nap.
roasted red pepper
I pretty much inhaled food when I got back from my swim. A 1.78 mile open water race which I did in 1.5 hours, my second slowest time in 10 years of doing this race.
4:31 Made it through a family reunion without touching the cakes, pies, or even casserolls. Ate carrot sticks, celery and salad. I also had about 300 calories in sunflower seeds. Now I am starving. I am figuring I am at about 1400 calories for the day right now.
some cottage cheese and beans for a total of about 1600 for the day. Yahoo!
Okay!
Breakfast~ 1 donut (is there possibly a food that has fewer redeeming qualities?
Lunch~ Turkey/tomato/mustard on a toasted English Muffin. 1 peach
Half a pepsi (about 6 ozs)
Dinner will be a ground turkey/bean/rice burrito and grape tomatoes.
Yum! Jen
Ran 3+ miles, and had a slice of pineapple in addition to the burrito and tomatoes.
Breakfast: Raisin Bran with skim milk 230
Lunch: Lean Cuisine Pizza 370 with cherry tomatoes I marinated overnight in balsalmic vinegar and crushed garlic.

Turkey, bean, rice and jalepeno jack cheese burrito: 400?? I may be over shooting the estimate...there was only a little cheese..
I have had lots of days like that drummer girl. Now I am trying to concentrate on successful little streaks of good behavior. I was good yesterday and my goal is under 1500 through next Sunday. Small goals make it easier.

I am going to talk to DH tonight about reactivating our gym membership. At this points it costs about $75 a month to go and $15 a month to not go. If we quit all together we lose our membership. I put it on hold after neither of us had been for several months and it seemed excessive to pay that much for it to sit there. Anna is old enough to hang in the daycare while we work out.
Hey DG!~ Don't be too hard on yourself. I know I've been there! 3000 cal one day is not the same as 3000 cal everyday! Today is a brand new day.
Breakfast: honey nut cheerios and skim milk: 170
Snack: 1 peach
Lunch: Lean Cuisine: 270 (Passed by the catered lunch of pizza, chips and huge cookies).
Snack: Went back and got 1 piece of pizza...300
Dinner: Beans, rice, ground turkey, pico de gallo...300
Jen
Breakfast
Luna Bar (180)

(I'm on a business trip and ended up in meetings all throughout lunch. When I came back, no food was to be had! Well, some chips that didn't look too good and some leftover fruit and bagels. I'll hold out until tonight and pick up a foot-long Subway sub on the way home. Have more work to do tonight after work. Kinda hungry now, though, but there's nothing I want to eat here. Not even the cookies, weirdly enough. -- Update! Succumbed and ate a cookie to avoid starving to death. Another coworker and I are running to the grocery store right after work.)
