I had a bad day at work/school yesterday, so I ended up eating more than usual . . . BUT, I am proud of myself because around 4pm, when I was feeling really crappy and I was hungry, I managed to force myself to walk straight past the vending machine and over to Au Bon Pain, where instead of buying the brownie I so desparately wanted I got some yogurt instead. Phew! That was really tough. I heard my inner voice say "Man, today was rough, you deserve a brownie" but I squashed it!!
Anyway, here is yesterday's food intake:
B -- Kellogg's smart start w/skim milk and blueberries
(workout)
S -- Dannon fruit at the bottom yogurt (strawberry banana)
L -- Lean Cuisine ravioli bowl
S -- Flavored yogurt w/blueberries at the bottom and granola on top, from ABP
D -- Fried rice (a little oil, rice, peas, corn, tofu, egg) (I admit, I ate too much fried rice last night)
S -- Piece of sourdough bread, multivitamin chew
at pei wei last night i had a noodle bowl with sprouts, cucumber, and tofu and 1/2 a beer. then we went out for dessert-- 1 dessert split three ways BUT it was still an obscene amount of chocolate cake . water goal attained

Man, I eat a lot of bread. I am such a bread addict. I would die if I ever tried to do Atkins! Actually, I used to be a binge bread-eater -- I would take a loaf of wonderbread, sit down to watch TV, and eat the entire loaf. At least I'm improving!
dinner last night was in fact rice pilaf w nuts and dried cranberries and cucumber/yogurt riatta with a mixed greens salad and 2 glasses of wine. also had a few big handfulls of animal crackers and a cup of coffee with a splash of 1/2 and 1/2. made water goal for the day.

6 flatbread crackers w hummus

dunno- a client is bringing me lunch- he's iraqi so it'll probably be either beef or lamb of some kind, flatbread or rice, and maybe roasted tomatos or cucumber salad or something (if i'm lucky enough to get veggies).
d-
leftover rice from last night. mixed green salad. ? may end up being turkey sausage (that desperately needs to be eaten) in some kind of pasta dish with a salad.
water goal- 2 nalgenes

I'm back from vacation. I didn't end up posting while I was gone because I didn't get to a PC like I thought I would. It's probably a good thing though since I just ate and ate and ate and drank and drank the whole time I was there. I need to go grocery shopping this week and stock up on some healthy food, but for now I'm going to atleast watch my calorie intake. Here's how my week has started….LOTS of sodium....
