Fail to plan, plan to fail.
Decide the best course for you today and do your best to stick with it!
I'm off to work. In my kitbag I've got salad, cottage cheese and yogurt. By planning, I should have bought groceries yesterday!
As usual
A) eat less
B) eat cleaner
C) cardio
D) weights ... today is shoulders and abs
B - 2 pieces of sprouted whole grain bread, natural peanut butter
S - Horizons organic fat free yogurt, sliced strawberries
L - Big salad from salad bar - spinach, tomatoes, red pepper rings, jicama, dried cranberries, chicken, sesame seeds, broccoli, carrots, dressing on side
S - tall non fat sugar free latte
S - orange
S - cut up veggies (carrots, sugar snap peas, orange pepper strips, grape tomatoes)
D - Trader Joe's Bengal Lentils over brown rice. I plan to add some raw spinach leaves.
Breakfast - protein pancake made with cottage cheese, egg whites, oatmeal, cinnamon
Lunch - pepper and white bean soup with rotini
Dinner - chicken and biscuits w/brocolli
I haven't got much choice for snacks, I have with me an apple, an orange, some protein powder which I am getting sick of (need to buy a diff brand and flavour), some baby carrotts (getting sick of those too) and I think a small tup of applesauce. I forgot my kashi bar .
Water - 2 liters+
Exercise - ran 2.7 miles and did 30 mins on elliptical at gym before work this morning.
Oh i cant wait till Sunday when I can go to the grocery store and buy stuff!! I really suck at planning this week!
I had my usual eggs and only 1/2 the bagel for breakfast (they bought the giant size for some reason in the deli)....I have no idea the rest of the day and I have school tonight, so its a dead day for me all around.
I can only say that I wont binge or go off track, that much I am sure of.
Had the applesauce cup for am snack plus guzzled 1 liter of water this morning.
Talking of planning, the next 3 weeks are going to suck for me. Husband is going out of the country on business so I'll be planning meals for 1. When he leaves town I usually go into silly grazing mode and don't eat right, so this will be a real challenge for me.
B- 2 egg muffins
S- half a bagel with one table spoon cream cheese
L- dozen spicey broiled shrimp and a side salad with vinegerette dressing (sp??)
S- apple
D- spagettie (eating at my daughters school performance)

Wish me luck.

Make a big healthy pot of soup (maybe chili on Sunday night). You can have chili as soup a couple of nights and then change it up during the week, maybe rolling it up with whole wheat tortillas with chopped tomatoes/low fat sour cream like chili tacos.
OK, here goes. I've not been as good at planning this week, but I've still managed to stay on plan, suprisingly.
today:
B - Atkins Morning Start breakfast bar
L - NONE, as my lack of planning keeps me from having my lunch ready to go, so I can't bring anything with me...
D - Salmon, broccoli, a plum, geez... I'm really not doing well with this today.
I ended up eating the other half of the bagel. No big deal.
Then I had a bit of Kung Pao Chicken at lunch.
Oh and shopping for next week is out of the question. I just found out that I leave for Minnetonka, MN on Sunday afternoon through Thurs of next week for work.
Tomorrows plans... Today has been OP, except I had some chocolate and didn't have the lentil and bacon soup (similar calorie value but not the same nutritionnaly) and I've had a lovely glass of red wine:
B: Porridge with apple and cranberry
S: Apple
L: Wholemeal pitta with spinach, hummous and grilled pepper, banana
S: Wholemeal probiotic bar
Spinning
D: Chicken with white wine and asparagus, boiled potatoes, broccoli and pepper and champagne for our at home anniversary dinner.
Planning's been so so this week- because the exercise is off the wall at the moment I do seem to think that I can have a bit of this and a bit of that.... Well the planning is definitely something to work on to help this. I just love my food unfortunately.
Ok if one more person emails me with the word R-U-S-H on it I am going to get a tank and run over them untill they are a small pile of dust. Then I am going to get some water put on the dust make a mud puddle and walk it dry.....
