Day #7

Today I've had:

Special K High Protein Cereal and 1% milk

2 oz Tuna and salad with 2 oz vanilla yogurt as dressing

1 - 140 Atkins Bar

15 Almonds and a tangerine

Grilled Chicken Salad from Burger King

I'm feeling better about my self. Just being accountable on here helps. Y'all keep praying for me.  Judy

Judy, it it so WONDERFUL to see that you are feeling better about youself! That is just so wonderful to see in print. I'm sending you my good thoughts and prayers every day. I'm feeling a bit better about myself to, it just feels physically better to not be eating garbage food! I've taken a handful of pounds off - it sure feels better than eating a handful of M&Ms - you are my inspriation, keep going! Love ya, Maureen

I know, I'm so excited for her too! :) 

OK... I am seriously cracking down on things. Had a very bad weekend and need to get back into the groove so I can get this weight off and feel better about myself. K... I did well yesterday... had an egg and protein and tea and something else that I can't recall at the moment but it was a good choice. I didn't eat much yesterday I just wasn't hungry at all.

Today:

Breakfast
2 small low fat turkey patties & decaf coffe w/milk and splenda

Lunch
Turkey Chilli. That was pretty darned good but it smelled funny!! haha...

No snack well... maybe a couple of crackers but thats it.

Dinner:  Protein shake and a healthy snack of some sort. I have to make spaghetti and meatballs tonight for everyone but I am REFUSING to eat it. I will NOT DO PASTA! That has to be my mantra. If I eat that stuff not only will it make me feel lousy, but it will make me want to snack later and just make me dissapointed in myself. So none of that. I'll just make the dinner then serve it up and make my protein shake right away.

hmmm.... feeling a litle dizzy. I think its my left eye though, it seems my vision is a bit blurrier than normal in my left eye. i hope thats all it is. Just too my vitamin and iron pill.......

 

Okay kiddo - your mantra is I WILL NOT DO PASTA! My mantra is I WILL NOT DO M&Ms! Shake on it!  And every day we check in with each other on the Mantra Commitment - okay? Okay! M.

ugh I am not doing well at all, I think that will change when I get to Tx to my sisters house and start my JOB!!!  Yes I got a job which I think will be a big help for me, not just sitting around all day doing nothing!

I eat INCREDIBLE amounts of ice, is the old wives tale of being anemic true when you eat a lot of ice, I mean I buy a bag of ice every 2 days!!!

Hey you! I don't know what's more important to do here - to tell you CONGRATULATIONS on your new job, way to go, good for you!!!  Or to swing high the Red Flag about your ice-eating!!! Nicole, when is the last time you had your blood workup done??? You MUST know what's going on metabolically in your system! Can you get this done soon?? Maureen

OMG I am an ice FREAK! I never am without a bag of ice...and if I am my mind is just consumed by replenishing my load!!! hahaha... I've been trying not to eat too much though because its bad for our teeth yatta yatta whatever... but  I am also very anemic so get that blood work done!!!  Congrats on the job! That should help!  ((Hugs!))

yeah and when I don't have bags of ice I crush ice from the 2 trays i have and then worry cause I don't have any ok it's been a minute at least a year and a half since ive had blood work done even though my current doctor has been bugging me to get it done
