Back to basics Day 3! How did you do?

Hi everyone.....Today went better for me than yesterday. After I posted my menu I went and ate bad things...I had about 5 bites of a banana cake, and cheese and then had three M&M's and then just before bed I ate about 10 Hersey kissables. I did not exercise and was pretty disappointed in myself. So today I pledged to do better. I woke up and weighed the same as yesterday so that was a good start...Hope everyone did better than I did. B~coffee with protein and about 8 baby shrimp....(Not at the same time) S~2 slices of low fat cheese L~refried beans with melted mozzarella cheese... S~2 sugar free popsicles.... D~ 2 pieces of boneless chicken bite size and cheese off a slice of pizza... S~cottage cheese... I do plan on drinking a protein drink or maybe more water.... Vitamins in Exercise 2 miles on the tread mill and burnt 437 cals according to the tread machine tracker... I hope to stay on track for the remainder of the night.... ~~hugs and well wishes~~ Chris

I have survived day 3 so far. Boy in the evenings would it be fun to munch on things I shouldn't, but I haven't given in so far. It is tempting, though! 7 more days w/o carbs sounds like a long time. Green beans, cabbage, etc. sure sound good right now. I was down another 1.4 lbs. today, so that motivates me. I try to think of getting on the scale when I wake up and seeing a smaller number, so that helps. I feel like I'm running to pee every hour, day and night! I am not drinking anymore than usual, so some must have been water weight I'm shedding. On the menu: Coffee Crustless Sausage/cheese quiche AchievOne Cappucino 2 oz. roast beef & 1 c lima beans SF Apple Cider LF cottage cheese & SF jello coffee & 2 tsp. peanut butter (not at the same time!) 3 oz. Ground chuck patty w/ LF cheese ???hopefully nothing liquids: 96 oz. so far, probably more water before bed protein: about 80 grams; may have 1 c protein hot choc before bed to get more vitamins: done exercise: 30 minutes on bike, 100 sit ups and arm weight work out Karla 337/191/150

Hi, I have not been posting lately but I am with ya'll on this. Eating some veggies, however, as I dont think I'd do #2 without some fiber. I seem to pee all the time. That's usually a sign that I am about to drop weight. But I have not looked at the scale and wont until Monday. Cheers, Tiffany
