I did well yesterday (came back last night to post what I actually had since yesterday morning's planning post was quite rushed). My scale appreciated me getting back on track, too (down 3.5 pounds from yesterday--hooray for drinking lots of water and shedding some water retention! ). I'm back down to 283.5 today, which makes me very happy since I took a whole week off (from both diet and exercise) when I was sick and then binged like an idiot on Tuesday.
I may or may not have my TOPS weigh-in tonight...I've gotten notification that my services may be needed on a big project at work today, so I will most likely have to work late. My TOPS weigh-in now depends on just how late I may have to work.
Anyway, on to today:
smoothie
salsa chicken
leftover orange chicken
Subway
cranberry juice
I've added cranberry juice to my list because I have up to a cup of it a day. I add maybe 1/4-1/3 cup of pure cranberry juice (no water, no sugar--only ingredients are cranberry juice and ascorbic acid) to my 1-liter bottles of water. It makes the water soooo much easier to drink...for some reason, I don't much care for the tap water at work anymore, and I'm not about to actually go pay money for water at the store
B-english muffi, ff cheese slice and 2 egg whites
L-maybe a turkey sandwich w/ ww bread and a little light mayo
S-ff pudding
D-grilled chicken breast w/ salsa and sour cream and a big salad, maybe 1/2 cup of rice or something like that
S-100 cal popcorn bag & maybe some wheat thins
Water- 3.5 Liters
already did 30 mins on my bike and plan to go out and play in the snow later
my plan for today, is too not eat too many of those cookies I made yesterday... I ate a few too many yesterday though, haha
I am going to get on my bike in a few, I would like to do an hour and half, but we will see how I feel after half an hour - still sick I wont push myself if I don't feel up to it.
in the fridge I have 1 cup of pea soup left from yesterday and a bunch of pasta, also a slim fast shake - so I should be okay for today, as long as I stay away from the cookies! haha
sotypical-sorry your still not feeling well and kudos for trying to keep up with the exercise!
Here is my plan for the day:
B - optimum power breakfast cereal with soymilk
S - coffee and banana
L - off plan because of a luncheon/meeting. Am going to try not to go overboard, but I may have a cookie
S - blueberry fiber cake and/or NF yogurt and/or apple, depends on how hungry I am
D - some soup I pulled out of the freeze, I can't remember exactly what it is (maybe navy bean and turkey sausuage) but I do remember that it is on 250 calories per serving (that will help make up for lunch!), green salad
S - low cal pudding with some mini-meringues (but maybe not if I have a cookie with lunch)
Exercise: at least 45 min cardio, would be great if I could get back up to an hour but I'm not sure I'll make it. 45 minutes was a real struggle on Tues. 15 min abs.
doing good so far today
B: 2 slices lite toast, 1 scrambled egg, 1 cup cantaloupe, 1 cup watermelon, 1/4 cup cottage cheese
S: 1 orange
L: Broccoli Peanut Stir-fry, 1 cup cantaloupe, Caesar salad w/lemon juice and 1 tbsp dressing
at around 800 calories so far, now the hard part is staying on track at dinner time..
JillyB: I forgot what post had your chicken marinade recipe. What marinade's do you recommend? I didn't know how to cook boneless chicken in the oven, so I appreciate the recipe and will definitely be trying this.
Planning for Thursday, Jan. 18
