What ya eating on Thursday and my groove!

Hi all. I've been reading the previous posts regarding current eating habits. I'm so glad I'm not alone. My eating has been outta control lately. Some days are good and other days are HORRIBLE. So...I'm taking over. I'm going to start keeping a food journal again, and each day I post I'm going to post whether I had a good, fair, or poor eating day. Join me if you think you need some revamping! I need to get back in control, so that's my new groove! So here's my menu for today: B- Power Bar Nut Naturals bar...trail mix flavor is good! S- Low Carb Chocolate Smoothie from...Smoothie King! They are so good and 35g of protein L- 3 oz. meatloaf, salad w/RF mozzarella and RF French drsg S- I'll have a protein shake before I head off to work D- I made some chicken w/broccoli and RF alfredo with less than 1/4 c. WW spaghtetti Fluids: 32 oz. so far Vitamins: need to take em! Exercise: 45 mins. CardioKick class this morning Eating: Good...so far April

I wish we had a Smoothie King, those sound so good.

LOL It helps me be accountable for what I put in my mouth. Today I had a good eating day and hopefully I can keep this up for the rest of the week. The week is not really my problem, the weekend is! I wanted to go get me a smoothie today but I got busy at work! I love smoothie king! B: Weight Control Oatmeal w/ 6 oz cc milk .. YUM and really fills me up!

So here goes: Breakfast: 1 cup low fat cottage cheese, 1 med banana and 10 med strawberries Lunch: 1 cup Hoods CC Chocolate Milk and 1 scoop of Dutch Chocolate Isopure 6 ice cubes and bulleted into a really thick yummy shake Snack: 2 cups of Watermelon Dinner: 1 cup tuna salad, 1 small whole wheat pita, 1 large dill pickle Snack: (May not eat it but it's in the food journal so I can if I want) 1 cup bite sized low fat pretzels 97 grams protein! Also I found a new great drink! Lipton diet white tea with Raspberries. It's really good when it's ice ice cold Have a great evening all!

Well good for u for getting back on track!! I like the new lipton drink too, it's yummy!! I use to get excited over new candy and chips now I go into stores looking for new diet drinks. Kay

I, too, have good eating days and bad eating days. I try to realize this this is going to be a lifelong struggle for me and not get discouraged. Some days that works, other days not so much. Here's my menu for today: B - Bowl of shredded wheat and milk S - South Beach Protein Bar L - Chicken and cheese tortilla S - 2 chocolate chip cookies S - Protein shake D - Corn and chicken casserole Okay except for the cookies, I guess. I could say that at least it was 2 and not half the pack like it would have been pre-wls, right? Lisa

Like you, I have realized that this is gonna be a lifetime struggle. i have learned not to stress over the days when I eat way too much or eat something not so good for me. I cant eat only protein and veggies for the rest of my life. That's so unrealistic!! You are totally right about the cookies. You had 2! Pre-op, how many would you of had?? I think we all have to learn that's it's ok to have things in moderation. Thanks for sharing! Kay
