Hi..I'm new (or back after a long absence).

Tommorow is day one.

Hoping to start with my old 4 pt standby...oatmeal.

Sorry I've missed a couple days here ... wasn't super great over the weekend but on the other hand, wasn't really that bad ... will be more strict this week! Was OP yesterday but didn't write it all down ...

Tuesday, August 16

Janice: good job on the wt loss!

Jane: Where are you?

Keepinsane: Welcome and look forward to hearing more from you.Come join us on our regular chit chat thread too .. Thin Wannabees #4.

Well, be back later ..........

Good morning,
I've been eating a lot of the same things so my journal is pretty boring. Yesterday we were invited over to our friends house for lunch so I ended up eating more than usual, I didn't want to insult her by not eating ( Ha Ha)
Breakfast:
3 ounces ham, slice bread, slice cheese, diet juice& water

Lunch:
3/4 sandwich and some fresh peach slices

Dinner:
We all went to dinner so I split a cheeseburgar, salad,& fries with my husband.

I really didn't get to stick to my diet plan, but it could have been a really bad diet day.
I feel I made better choices than I usually would have.

Wednesday, Aug 17

BREAKFAST:
2 coffees/blk
1 cup cottage cheese w/splenda & cinnamon

LUNCH:
kielbasa sandwich with lo-carb bread/mustard
2 coffee/blk

DINNER:
We went to China One Buffet for dinner ... I was as good as I could be ...

1 terriyaki chicken on a stick
1/2 cup won ton soup (oh I love this)
1 slice watermelon/a few grapes
1/2 hard boiled egg
spinach with mozz cheese (just a small serving)
tea (of course)

now, here's the bad part ... China One has the most delicious fried doughnuts ... and tonite they looked extra wonderful so I did indulge and had 2 of them .. they are small.

There .. that's it for today .. I'm on my way to bed now .. we have to leave in the morning by 7:00 ... so remember, I will be gone for 2 days .. no internet. I'll talk to you on Saturday.

:D Okay, here goes
Wednesday
Breakfast:
2 small sausage links with 1/2 piece of bread
diet fruit juice, it's low carb

Lunch:
1/2 cheeseburger
water

Dinner:
salad with chunks of turkey & blue cheese dressing
1 ear of corn
1/2 dinner roll
fruit drink/ low carb

I know I probably had too many carbs yesterday, but I ate a lot less than I wanted!
I figure if I make small changes I'll be able to stick to a weightloss plan. I didn't gain it all in one day and it won't go away in one day.:lol:

You're doing good Janice ... keep up the good work! I'm closing this thread now and have started a new one for this week! See you there!
