you're such a wealth of information Rick! I've started grazing and caught myself doing it! At first I would "graze" just to get enough protein in for the day, but the habbit went from "grazing" with protein to just grazing.. I'ts something I have to stop doing before I do harm. thanks for bringing all these subjects to light, they're so important in our new lives!

oops I didn't post yesterday. I could swear that I did! Probably better that I didn't anyway my stomach feels enormous! I'm eating eating eating, when will it stop?? Usually if I'm hungry one day the next day I eat like a bird, but not this time... yestday was the regular routine when it came to the morning (coffee, protein muffins, un-fried beans, banana for snack) then we left for the cape.... We stopped at a seafood restaurant and I had fried shrimp.. great way to start a weekend of eating out! today we went to get shellfish licenses! we're going um... digging for oysters. BF is thrilled, I'm not an oyster eater, but it will be fun. I brought my protein muffins to help stay some what good, but the restaurants we plan to check out while here are far from "the best healthy meals".. most of them are places that won awards for something on their menu. Of course theres a few places that won awards for NE clam chowder.. needless to say I have to try those!! ITs a beautiful sunny, warm day here. We walked to the shops this morning and to get our licenses, walked the beach this afternoon and plan a walk after dinner before the sox game. heres my day so far breakfast - 2 apple protein muffins medium coconut iced coffee from dunkins, x-milk, 2 splenda (down from 3.. trying to cut off splenda and switch to natural sugar..) snack - half bagel with light veggie cream cheese lunch - chicken pot pie with the most amazing roasted cauliflower I've ever eaten.. I asked what they season it with and they said lemon pepper, garlic powder and season salt it was incredible! snack - the rest of the cauliflower dinner - clam chowda! mmmmmmm watching the game at a sport bar, we'll probably get something to snack on and have a drink water - gotten a lot in today! vitamins - bought more multi since I forgot it at home, took my bcomplex and calcium chew.. one left exercise - lots and lots of walking.. (hope everyones getting their totals ready for Monday) I did a little online research and found that approx. 6 miles on the bike is about 2 approx. miles of walking thats helpful since we're planning to bike 32 miles between tomorrow and Monday hows everyone doing? let us know have a good weekend everyone

5 pounds?! WOW! How wonderful! Keep up the walking! you are doing great!

So I lost another half a pound, did a 1.5 mile walk this morning.. even though I really wanted to sleep, and I feel pretty good. I can eat again, so I had an omlet for breakfast. It had sausage, cheese and bell pepper in it. I topped it with Salsa.. Very yummy!! That brings my total to 5 lbs so far. Yay!!
