So last night I slipped up a bit and had fried chicken and beer for dinner. My approximate calculation for yesterday's calories is about 2,000 so not enough to gain hopefully but I'm going to try and make up for it a little bit today and hopefully my WI tomorrow won't be too terrible. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!
This weekend was not as good as I wanted it to be, but it wasn't too bad either. I made the mistake of not having a real meal today until about 4. So I spent most of the day snacking And last night we went out for dinner.
All well, it wasn't horrible, hopefully I can stay on track and lose this week. I really have to get my weekends under control if I want to be successful again!
Courtnie Weekends are tough for me too. I am out of my regular regimen. Weekends are always higher calorie for me. I try to have a couple lower calorie days during the week to off set the weekend.
Just a quick note to check in. I am visiting my daughter and her family this week so am not sure how much I will be able to be online. I plan to stay very focused on my diet and getting exercise in (even went and bought a kettlebell to use this week). Playing with and loving on the grandbaby will be high on my list of activities this week.
I got here Saturday morning but my suitcase didn't get here until Sunday afternoon. It was very stressful, but I stayed on plan and didn't let the stress send me to food (or chocolate). I have had a few treats since I got here (like a piece of the cake I made for my daughter's baby shower yesterday), but I figured them in. And I've been entering my food into my fitday account. I hope everyone has a great week.
Micah wants to say hello (he'll be 16 months old on Sunday ♥) - ytlhdxdbghyt vvnkhghjhklgvcf jyhujhgjkhfgdmnjkuhj and I love my grandma very much! (I helped him a little)

That's what I do too. But I have to be really careful because I don't see to lose when my weekends are bad. Overall this weekend wasn't bad in comparison to normal - so I think I will be okay! I didn't count all weekend, but I did really watch what I ate expect Saturday night when we went out to dinner. My goal is to count on the weekends, and I had full intentions of doing it - but I never got around to it. I am trying to limit it myself to one meal a week for a "treat" where I don't have to count. For example, this coming weekend will be easter Sunday - probably brunch.
Diana - I think the 100 day Birthday celebration is a Chinese thing (my finace's family is orginally from Hong Kong). At 100 days a baby is kinda "in the clear" health wise, like going forward the baby should be a lot stonger. So they celebrate it We didn't end up going to see our Wedding Coordinator because on Friday night my back was playing up again and I didn't sleep at all during the night so I slept from about 7:30 AM to about 2 in the afternoon. Re-scheduling for this weekend.
Here is my 3/29/2010
B - 2 boiled eggs + 1 WW whole wheat bun with natural peanut butter + 1 apple + 1 yoghurt with flax
L - Chicken Salad (2oz chicken, 1 cup romaine lettuce, 1 cup spinach, 1 whole tomato, 2oz light chedder cheese and cal. wise dressing) + 1 cup popcorn + 1 mandarin
I may have a snack here depending on what time my SO comes home
D - 3oz salmon marinated in spicy jerk sauce + 2 cups green beans with soy sauce + 1/3 cup brown rice
Drinking: 1 morning coffee + 2L water throughout the day (some with green tea) + 1 diet pepsi
Diana, my son is doing better but still sick poor baby. He's still got a cough and had a temp of 103 yesterday but he's much better today thanks for asking!
Courtnie, weekends are tough for me as well but I find that as long as I get right back on track and don't let a cheat day turn into a cheat week then everything is ok. Good luck you can do it!
Mama, aw my son is going to be 16 months on April 2 so they are very close in age! And great job on not letting stress send you to food but also on letting yourself enjoy a couple treats, have fun!
Lauren, we cross posted! I'm sorry your back was hurting I hope it gets better soon I know how painful that can be.
