Surviving the 4th of July - How did u do ?
I started me day with :
1 FF-SF Yougurt .
Protein Drink
Lunch ...
A small bite of my homemade Eggplant Parmesan -
Protein Shake -
Dinner
Found a yougurt that had 12 grams of Protein - ate one at 6 and another at 8 . Avoided the ever dreaded protein drink this way - Yippe !
7 boiled peanuts ... Not bad at all .. liked the salt .
Water @ 40 oz - along with protein drinks - FLUID INTAKE : 60 .
I AM A 4TH SURVIVOR ... but it all sure looked good !
Hope you all had a great 4th .

bf: 1 scrambled egg, 1/2 piece toast
l: 1/2 BLT
d: 1/2 hamburger (no bun) w/ cheese, mustard, ketchup, pickle; 3 small bites of broccoli casserole, 1 tortilla chip dipped in taco dip
water: 32 oz.
I think I was sensible but still enjoyed the cookout I attended without feeling deprived. I drank only water at the cookout and resisted lots of goodies. I picked the two things I wanted to sample most and had a bit of them along w/ my half a burger. I know myself well enough to realize that if I had made myself feel deprived, I would've dwelled on that feeling instead of the good time I was having, plus I would've been more likely to make a horrible food choice when I got home.
Breakfast: nothing
Lunch: 4 chips with small amount of cheese dip, 1/4 hamburger with mayo only.
Snack: 1/4 cup of strawberry shortcake.
Dinner: low carb. sugar free icecream pop.
water all day. I feel bad about the strawberry shortcake, but I figured what the heck, it's a holiday. I guess I didn't do to bad, I still lost a pound since yesterday. Debra
B- cottage cheese and orange juice
L- gefilte fish and crackers (I'm jewish)
D- 1/2 hamburger with homemade lowfat cole slaw, ketchup and no bun.. small amount mac salad, and 2 bites of corn on the cob.
For an evening snack I had no sugar, no far (no taste, really) angel food cake and fresh strawberries.
But what I really wanted was a piece of the apple pie with the chocolate ice cream and whipped cream. And i probably would have been dumping all night.My problem is I can't do anything by half measures. I am either very good or very bad.
