Hey all, thought I'd get us started with the daily planning thread.

Last night, I only had 1/4 cup of white rice not the 1/2 cup like I had planned for...yay!! BUT I had like three mini bags of chips that were anywhere from 200 - 350 cals each so I guess yesterday was one of those bad days. SIGH. Got to pick myself up and move on as hard as it is.

B - 1 apple
1 cup skim milk
1 cup grapes

S - None. Trying to wean myself off the snack.

L - 1/4 cup curried brown rice with veggies
1 8 oz container plain ff yogie

S - Nature Valley granola bar (2/pack)

D - 1/4 cup white rice + veggies + plain yogie.

Exercise: I'm so proud of myself!!! Today was the first time I have ever exercised when it was rainy out! YAY! I did 2 miles today instead of 4 and I didn't jog any of them but I made sure I walked briskly the whole time.

Ok here's my plan:

B - Kashi GoLean Crunch and skim milk (1 cup each) I LOVE this cereal!
S - Banana
L - Probably a 6" chicken sub from subway, no cheese, little bit of mayo and lots of veggies
S - Tea, wasa crispbread and 1 tbsp light cream cheese
D - 1/2 multigrain bagel with tuna, some grapes, small portion of baked lays

Water - Trying for 80 oz.
Exercise - 60 minutes hill interval on treadmill

For breakfast, I had a red grapefruit.

For a mid-morning snack, I had a banana.

I brought a big salad for lunch today - lettuce, tomato & cucumber, with chilled shrimp & Zesty Italian Free dressing.

Not sure what's for dinner yet!

Nature Valley granola bars have a lot of sugar in them. The health news segment says granola bars tend to be packed with sugar. Nature valley is one of the top sugar filled ones.

b- pb on honey wheat, banana, milk
s- cottage cheese
l- rice, bbq chicken leg, apple
s- yogurt
d- tacos (i'll go light on the cheese and sour cream!!)

somebody brought candy in to work today.......darn them!! I have already had 4 snack size chocolates!!! and it's only 10am......god help me!

My plan is
B Half of pita bread with some turkey
S Home maid sugarless juice
L Chicken breast with sald
S a yogurt
D A salad with no dressings

I really want alfredo sauce on my lunch... but I don't wanna open the jar. I already have half a jar of tomato sauce open... and then I open that, I am worried I might end up throwing something away I hate throwing food away... but at the same time the alfredo sauce would be so much tastier with my lunch! argh

B- ice tea protien juice; english muffin with a bit of light butter and deli turkey breast and cheese
S- coffee with milk and sugar; banana and peanut butter
L- spagetthi squash with half a can of clams and shrimp with som sort of sauce (tomato or alfredo)

s - no fat, no sugar 60 calorie ice cream bar
D - I made a big pot of chicken soup, which I'll freeze in quart containters, my kids really like it once a week as a treat. So from the soup I will have

60-80 ozs. of water.
