Have a great evening everyone and a great Tuesday!!!!
Breakfast-1/2 c low fat cottage cheese with medium tomato, 3 wheat crackers
Lunch-turkey sandwich with mustard, 1 c steamed brocolli

Snack-sugar free fudgesicle

walked 1 mile (hey, it's a start)
Hey maybeebecky...you are right, it IS a start...better 1 mile then non at all. is this day one?? the first step is exactly that...the first step, cant get anywhere without that first one.. GOOD luck and GOOD job today!!
Hi there! Today I was going to this...um, basically a-mall-that-functions-more-like-a-bazaar, and you know what's there at bazaars? YES. FOOD.
My culinary ambition told me to hold a culinary crusade on my own to try foods there, unfortunately there wasn't any healthy food with enough portion for me not to eat more (if I eat more, I'll overeat)... So in the end I tried a spring roll (doesn't really taste good) and a salad with peanut sauce. HOT! D: skipped the rice cake that's there too
And then later in the evening I ate salad and some soup with tofu which have meat inside.
But I walked around alot (and gotten myself a nice bag) so...is all forgiven? Not yet, there's still dinner.
No worries, DogMom! We all fall off the wagon. The important thing is to pick yourself up and get back on!
Good luck with today! You can do it!
So yesterday was not a good day for me, emotionally. I guess that could've translated to a bad diet night, but fortunately, it didn't. I don't think I could have dealt with another weight increase, regardless of it being water or fat. I've found that I'm better able to control my eating now. Hope this continues for a long, long time!
Snack - blueberry & raspberry smoothie, 1 tsp sugar for about 4 cups of smoothie (100 cals? Have to measure and see today)
Lunch - 5 spinach and mozzie ravioli (200 cals), unsure of what else to have... maybe some olives (100 cals). The smoothie is very filling so I might not need extra lunch
Snack - bananas (100 cals), figs (111 cals) or watermelon (100 cals) or grapes (200 cals) OR 1 100 cal popcorn bag
Dinner - homemade fried rice, using about a cup of white rice (500 cals)
Total for the day: 1385. Knowing me, I'm sure it won't end up being that low.
I was doing fine yesterday until we got down the shore. We went to the boardwalk for the night but my BF would rather stay home and watch tv and my best friend's love life was crashing down around her ears(I'm her love guru basically). The only plus to last night was that I was walking for 4 hours.
Food confessions:
Kohr bros ice cream
Nachos
Water ice (samples)
Soft pretzel (samples)
Fudge (samples)
More ice cream when we got home :c
Today I plan on walking twice as long as I normally do at the beach, going in the water with my BF no matter how cold the water is, and eating right.
Hey Platformnine! Is your name a Harry Potter reference? It's been a while since I've read the books, but didn't he leave from a platform 9.5 or something? I'm an HP geek, so forgive me if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
You're from NJ! Yay!! I'm a former NJ-er so it makes me happy when I see my peeps.
Good luck today! Have fun in the ocean!

Thank goodness you posted on here. I was wondering where everyone was... must be busy days for people. It's a GORGEOUS day out for me, but I'm not feeling well (TOM crampiness) so I'm not in the mood to go out and run. Any other day and I would've been out there enjoying the mild sun and lovely breeze.
Yea.. it is freezing here! I think summer is gone for this year lol.. I am jsut home on my lunch break.. thank goodness I only live a 4min. walk from work so I can come home for break...and yea I hear ya.. I do not so much have the crampiness.. just the blahs lol
