You know, this thread is great for archiving menus ... I just do a daily spreadsheet on my hard drive and then type over it each day. But today I brought home another ready cooked chicken and had more or less the same amount and was able to just take it off here and enter it into my spreadsheet.
Very busy week. Will be back with regular report tonight or in the a.m.!!! Later ... |
Not enough sleep the last two nights and I find it affects my desire to eat.
Cinnamon bun - 300 viactivs -40 ham on onion roll w/mustard banana sliver lemon meringue pie pb cup ice cream Going out to dinner tonight so should have cut down a bit more earlier, not enough water either, lots of tea.

Then there'll be some kind of evening snack - allowing up to 200 cal. That's the plan anyway. Should end up a decent day. Did a 25 minute walk in the park. Would have done more but dh had had enough. But that's the third day in a row (an improvement). Heard from the pool today that they'll be opening May 3rd so I'll soon be back on track there. |
Crazy kind o' day so Elberta Crone, fab 100-year-old spa cook to :queen: s for three generations hath bolted the door to the imperial kitchen until midnight (when my eating day begins again if I'm still working, which I won't be):

Covering festival did not go very well, so here's the damage, but if I stop eating now, I'll have made my goal of an 1800-cal daily average this week. Exercise goal also made ... I had five minutes left and since I walked around for hours and hours (long frustrating day), I'd say it's good!
Luna bar 180 Two-thirds of sandwich w/Eggbeaters, ww Eng muffin 110 1/2 svg sf tapioca pudding 45 Two-pack pb cups 230 EAS van CC shake 100 1/2 apple 45 Lf cheese stick 80 EAS van CC shake 100 Milky Way candy bar 270 EAS van CC shake 100 Doubleshoot expresso drink 140 Crackers & peanut butter 190 1/2 T "fixed" natural pb 55 Total 1645 |
In the interest of full disclosure, let me just add that I did nibble on a wee bit more o' the fixed-up pb last night, making my total somewhat higher and my average for the week 1830. This, however, is a new week and Amarantha hath retireth to her chamber early and sent the chambermaid off to frolic for the evening. Unfortunately, the addlepated maiden hath locked the kitchen and put the key in her apron pocket before scuttling off to the village nightspots, so Amarantha be having to take the "pledge" and not eat anymore calories until at least midnight, when her eating day officially begineth, though waiting until daylight would be better, still we can't have everything, can we :queen: s?
Burger King French Toast Sticks w/syrup 470 EAS van CC shake 100 Maple Bavarian Donut 330 EAS van CC shake 100 Grilled salmon w/dill 80 Corn w/lf butter sauce 35 Broccoli w/lf cheese sauce 50 SF tapioca pudding 90 3 T "fixed" natural pb 315 EAS van CC shake 100 Total 1670 Exercise: 50 min. EZ walk, 10 min yoga |
Amarantha, your comment about waiting until daylight reminds me of this old one-liner: "I've always been a light eater.....when it gets light, I start eating!" :lol:
It's Monday, and I really need to faithfully count calories and NOT go above 1500. I just feel like I'm letting myself off the hook too much lately. And be more 'sincere' with my workouts--again letting myself off the hook. Anyway, time to catch up with my menus! Saturday: coffee w/ ff 1/2 and 1/2 grapefruit/orange juice [fresh! We love our juicer!] pizza bagel [sauce, vegs, cheese on Asiago bagel] sm. Slimfast bar Salad [spinach, vegs, veg. 'chicken', ff ranch] strawberries w/ ff vanilla pudding snacks: pear/ apple juice Snickers 'Marathon' bar calories: 1690 exercise: 30 min. step video Sunday: coffee w/ ff 1/2 and 1/2 grapefruit/orange juice 4 corn-pecan pancakes w/ maple syrup, cooked pears 2 veg. 'sausages' carrot/ celery/apple juice 1 1/2 millet patties [these are good--I'll post the recipe sometime.] steamed brocolli w/ red peppers and garlic ff pudding and strawberries snacK: lo-fat ice cream sandwich exercise: 3 mile walk |
Well, Eydie, in the interest of full disclosure again, I didn't even wait until midnight. Had a few more items (not sure what they were now) and ended up at 1960. I'm actually thinking of doing what some Weight Watchers people do and run my eating day from 10 p.m. to 10 p.m. ... there's times I kind of do this anyway ... I just carry over any extras to the next day's balance ... this works kind of well ... seems to fit my crazy lifestyle.
I'm going to be very vigilant now, too, and am off to gym early as I have to travel today. Be back tonight! |
