Back from vacation and settled into my routine... I didn't do as well on the trip as I'd hoped, but I'm down 1.5 pounds so far this month and considering we spent almost 3 weeks on the road and 15 days of that on a cruise ship, I'm happy with that!

Zeff -Thanks for your comment about snacks and metabolism. I realize that I've got the typical Phase 1 loss of appetite, but I sure as heck don't want to slow my metabolism, so I've decided to try and have at least one snack a day anyway. I'm feeling better about that now. The idea of eating when you're not hungry wasn't sitting well, but now I feel much better.
Breakfast: 2 egg omelet (egg beaters) with tomato, red peppers, onions, 2% cheese, LF sour cream and salsa; 6-8 oz V8; 2 cups coffee with ¼ cup 1% milk and artificial sweetener - Vitamins
Lunch: Chicken Crack slaw
Snack: Apple with peanut butter
Dinner: Chicken Adobo, Brown Rice, Green Beans and Black Beans w/ red peppers & onions
Friday P1.5

-not too much food in the past couple of days which is probably why i'm down 2.2 lbs since a week ago. i'd love for that to be true, but i'm a little suspicious...
Today- not sure, DH and I need to clean out the fridge before leaving for the holiday weekend in a couple of hours which consists of a stuffed pepper, v8, 3 eggs, 2 slices canadian bacon, deli turkey breast, 1% milk, almond milk, rf cheeses...

In Paris at the moment. Spent most of the day jetlagged and feeling sick but was able to keep down some Haagen Dazs from the shop on the Champs-Elysées. I am definitely not going to be on plan here.
