9/5/07 What did you eat today?

We did get a few responses yesterday. We CAN make this part of the challenge work! Let's work to start seeing more and more responses each day! Tell us what you ate today and, if you like, tell us what you did to exercise. It is all about accountability for so many of us and being able to share helps keep some folks on track! Thanks gang!

I missed yesterday's but here goes for today.... Breakfast: South Beach protein bar (the 140 calorie one) Lunch: Mashed steamed cauliflower, ground beef, and slice of cheese Supper: 2 oz roast pork, roasted cauliflower & fennel, and small salad with 2 t dressing Snack: 1/4 C pistachios (1/8 cup more than I should have had) So there and I am glad that I posted because now I won't eat another thing tonight.

Well, I must say that you all did better than me for the last couple of days. I'm still dealing with a family crisis (biggie) and have failed to eat most of the last 3 days. I have been drinking and I have taken my vitamins, but I haven't been eating. This afternoon, I have started to turn that around again. So far today, I have had the following: Breakfast--32 ozs iced tea with lemon and splenda and my vitamins lunch--more tea and my calcium and fish oil snack--same as lunch dinner--beef cubed steak, macaroni & cheese (I buy the cheapo boxed macaroni & cheese and then toss the noodles and use the barilla high protein, whole wheat rotini pasta in its place) and peas/carrots For a snack later, I'll have some peanuts or a yogurt (Carb Master which is 12 grams of protein) and then I'll take my last vitamins before bed. I said I started turning this around this afternoon, not this morning, so the day got off to a poor start. BUT, I plan to be back with the program tomorrow and getting in all my protein and calories. As I said, I have been getting my liquids and vitamins, but not my calories and protein. No flames needed as I'm already grilling my self! Hugs, Lea
