It sounds like you ladies are planning a good week. I'll be joining you in a week or so....going in for surgery tomorrow, so I'll be on a liquid diet for 2-3 days and then keeping my foods pretty bland for a few days before going back to a regular diet.
tyler- planning is my only defense against totally loosing control. nice to know i'm not the only one out there who needs to see it in black and white. i hope your plan worked out well for you today!
mommy- good luck with the surgery! hope all goes well.

haha, I have this problem of planning everything I want to eat for the day--I put it into my Fitday, post it on numerous boards, and even email it to a friend! My problem is actually sticking to the plan--or perhaps more specifically, NOT ADDING anything to my plan!
Smart Ones sweet and sour chicken meal (only 140 calories!)
sesame rice crackers with garlic and onion hummus
I was planning on having chicken for dinner tonight, but I now realize that I forgot to take it out of the freezer this morning. So, hmm, instead I will make some vegetarian quesedillas (La Tortilla whole-wheat tortillas, black beans, salsa, corn, cheese, and fat-free sour cream). Jeff will just have to survive without meat for one night
today was good! i didn't eat all the stuff i took to work, just wasn't hungry for a change, no biggie i got in enough cals for the day without them. i feel sort of like i am coming down with a cold or something. going to bed early tonight.

Oh, Jodi... please keep this thread going... it's such a great idea! Unfortunately I am flat-out-broke. Grocery day is tomorrow, and I'll start planning THEN!
