Friday- Food/Updates...

Post them here, please... ______________________________________________________________ New day, same weight... maintaining *again... Today- 24 oz coffee (two mugs so far) 1 oz carb countdown skim 1 tsp fake creamer in second cup Babysitting today, hoping to get on the treadmill at some point for a legitimate walk, probably not till DH gets home, lest I run little fingers over. I got on yesterday, but got cut short, only got in a mile, but it was a good fast one, ... that sounded dirty, eh? Plan for the day is same as usual, avoiding the grazing monster. 3-4 meals at normal mealtimes, and trying to avoid that late afternoon crash and burn into snacks. Again, using fresh veggies or fruit to combat that mouth/head hunger. It works for me, thank goodness. Making a roasted chicken, butternut squash & cheesy potatoes for the kids tonight. I probably won't touch any of it, the only part I *should would be the chicken, and it always makes me sick to my stomach, so I'll enjoy the aroma, and have something else.

yum...can I come to your house for dinner? haha coffee this morning with creamer and carb control yogurt with 6 grapes for breakfast..... going to have a good day today......later guys...Joan

Sure, c'mon over, I'll have too much as it is, ... Adding- Morning, not a meal, ARGH... Feeding the little ones- had fruit bits... 1 cube pineapple 1 cube cantaloupe 1 cube watermelon 1/2 serving Glenny's Soy Crisps, plain

Adding/tallying.... :::warning it's one of THOSE days... apparently, carbohydrate-wise::: Lunch- Carb Countdown Yogurt 1/2**** & 1/2C water 1/2C strawberries 1 scoop whey protein Then, I made COOKIES. Under the guise of HEALTHY cooking, I made a batch of cinnamon-crisp cookies... http://www.efoodpantry.com/premierharvest/Recipes.htm Yeah, they were loaded with soy protein bits, but a cookie is a cookie, especially when made with BUTTER, BROWN SUGAR, EGG, & FLOUR, in addition to the soy granules. Okay, so they are perfect for the kids, whom all ate a bunch and deemed them great. But, mom had like 4, and didn't dump. Maybe it's because I practically doubled the amount of soy crunchies, and it spread out the sugar/carb factor so that they weren't as high in sugars?! Who knows, but I'm a dummy, I shoulda known better. I just feel bad sometimes, I love to cook, and I hate not being able to give the kids treats and cook with them because of my own demons. Anyways, adding more---- 4 cinnamon crisp soy cookies (throughout afternoon) 1/2C watermelon Dinner- 1/4C bulgur wheat with soy grits (made into pilaf) then, crashed and burned further into... 1/4C INSTANT freaking mashed potatoes.... these are disgusting! Just read the ingredient label.. I was like, "I bought these for WHO?!" My totals don't suck so much, if you completely ignore the carb-totals. 894 cals 21 fats, perfection! 101 carbs, oh, over by like 70! 84 good! -beth Thankful it wasn't donuts, cheez doodles, lucky charms or something, right?
