Did you like the enthusiasm? Great.

Brekky: egg and cheese on whole wheat bread, coffee with splenda and creamer.

Lunch: A pita with hummus, almonds

Dinner: Broccoli and soup of my choice

Snacks: nuts, nuts and more nuts?

WHy do I feel like I'm eating the same thing everyday?? Maybe its time I spice it up a bit....

I don't know what happen to my ramblings yesterday. After the death of a co-worker. But I made it through last night only cheated a little and this morning had extra cereal (Special K). Everyone is out of the office for the poor guys memorial. I couldn't go because it meant to much weight bearing on my feet. 3fc is my only out let. So I tend to ramble on in different support groups. I am trying to lose below 200 lb before New Years. I weight in at 225 now. You mention peanut butter if that is related to my diet...I eat Heiner's 35 and a peanut buter and jelly sandwich for lunch. Only put the stuff on one side just enough to cover the bread not extra. The protein in the peanut butter helps the food digest slower and the sugar in the jelly gives me the need boost. I do eat 90 & 100 cal snack packs of special K or oreo or something. Thanks for being there.

Aw luckymom, I'm sorry! for you.

1/2 of a snickers bar.......my 13 year old left this out in open sight, I started with just a taste and then moved on and finished the stupid thing
32 oz of diet coke....with caffeine

This is not normal for me diet or no diet, I just couldn't control myself this morning. Time to cut the watermelon into bite sized peices and resume control over my eating today.

Farmers' market is a great friend when dieting!

L - apple w/peanut butter
S - slice canteloupe
