Doing well...water slowly coming off and that's AFTER a weekend. I still have had ZERO booze. I love my wine, and now booze just sounds gross. Yesterday DH made scrambled eggs w/taco seasoned ground turkey. VERY yummy We ordered pizza from Papa John's with chicken breast, canadian bacon, pineapple, and jalapenos. They gave us free spicy wings AND a deep dish cookie for free - but I only had 2 wings, and 2 little slivers of the cookie. Oh, and 3 pieces of pizza. BUT, that was it the whole day besides breakfast.
Today:
B - 0% greek yogurt, 15 almonds, pumpkin pie spice, honey
L - Salad: romaine, ground turkey (leftover), baby bella mushrooms, light blue cheese dressing.
S - banana
D - chicken breasts, steamed cauliflower, brown rice. that's the plan anyway!
i did not go to the gym today...i worked this morning and then spent most of the mid-morning sitting at the courthouse waiting to talk to a judge...i finally spoke with him and was granted another 20-day protective order against this lady, applying to all the pertinent members of my household including me...we have a hearing on a long-term order after that and i thought it was funny how both me AND the judge had to bring up our calendars to see when we could schedule a hearing LOL my schedule is just so packed
then i went back to work and i'm here all day at least it's sunny out
Huggerbunny Good job having the treat in moderation!
Alaskanlaughter The sausage and cabbage does sound great! I'm glad the judge granted an extension on the order.
Larry Good job on the 3 pounds!
Rasagolla I'm sorry to hear about the runner's knee. I know that must be frustrating for you. Try to find a low impact exercise program that you can do. There are a lot of options with DVD's. Good luck and I hope you find something that will work for you.
I felt pretty good with the sugar snaps today. I didn't get that sugar craving that I normally get after the yogurt. I still don't know if that's just in my head or what. I also stayed full and satisfied all day. I will continue on with the sugar snaps this week since I couldn't get the yogurt.

Hello all, basically stuck to my plan the only difference was Frangelico for dinner instead of salad or V8, happy to have gotten in all my exercise and back to my cream of wheat for breaky and spring mix for lunch.
Sugar snap peas sound yummy. Haven't had any since summer.
Today was supposed to be a fast day but I could not abstain after making pizza for the family. Pizza is my weakness, for sure. Homemade and loaded with veggies...
dinner was yummy but with a slight change...I did cook the organic chicken breast, but I cubed them and sauteed them with onions and herbs and then I realized that DH doesn't like chicken 'plain' like that. SO, I got a can of condensed cheddar cheese soup and dumped that in with it, added some salsa, and served that alongside steamed cauliflower. Also instead of rice, had baked potato just a little lite sour cream on it.
Good morning all, feeling better today, a little low back soreness, not bad. Down to 158.2
B- cream of wheat, unsweet van almond milk, poached egg
L- spring mix, tomatoes, Italian, BH salsa ranch, smoked oysters
S- orange, apple, banana
D- fish and veggies
E- walk at work, bike
That's the plan anyway... Hope everyone has a great day
Thanks everyone for the support. I am up 2lbs today to 176lbs. Crazy. It's my gain day, but that is still crazy.
I am adding a protein shake after my morning workout. I used to have one and didn't think much of it so cut it. But I am wondering if that helped pull me through to lunch and helped me recover from my workouts.
I also have a crazy day at work today that will prevent me from doing a lunchtime run. I might take a rest day from that or slip one into the afternoon.

I can't wait to be held accountable! lol Seriously, its what keeps me moving. I hate letting other people down. Since my second weight in on Wednesday I have lost one whole pound. Better than nothing, I know. Hoping that when my schedule opens up a bit more I can start exercising on a regular basis and that will really help. So far I'm only watching my diet and eating healthy.
