  • THURSDAY

    Okay...I had this morning off and was planning on going rollerblading but it was too cold so instead i laid around and watched tv. Man, there's nothing on during the day!! Thankfully we had no "bad" food in the house cause I was on a binge rampage. I searched the pantry, freezer, and fridge for food three times. I ate a lot but nothing that was too horrible -- at least it was protein. It's a good think I have spare points from the past two days!!

    pb&J -4
    8 oz ff milk -2
    banana -2
    pistachios -4
    cheese -2
    orange juice -2

    water -0
    (what's sad is that I ate it in that order!!)

    LUNCH:
    popcorn -4
    diet pepsi -0

    DINNER:
