Wed: What are you eating?

Not sure what I am going to be able to get down today. I was only able to eat some of my tossed salad for dinner last night and I barfed that back up an hour later along with my undigested afternoon snack that I had eaten 6 hours before. I'm still sipping hot tea and feeling kinda nauseaus (sp?). Anyway, if I start feeling better here's the plan. AM - 1 cup of coffee and 2 cups of hot tea so far B - weight control oatmeal with 5 strawberries (or just an atkins shake if my stomach still feels unsettles) L - atkins shake and a plum S - apple slices with PB D - Tossed salad with tuna on top. Something for dessert. No food after dinner Vits and meds - took my bloodpressure meds but forgot the vits this morning Liquids - 100 oz Exercise - today is my "light day" so I'm planning a 30 minute light cardio class (Esquire's Light and Easy Workout) and 30 minutes of ab work (Crunch's Fat Burning Ab Attack). No weight training.

Not sure what I'll be eating today - depends on how I feel.... Pre B - about 4 cups of coffee... B - 4 oz low carb yogurt S - just had a piece of cheese and a piece of ham, hurts going down but I needed the protein L - maybe a poached egg or something soft like that The rest of the day, who knows? I have class tonight, have to go, it's the first night, so I'll probably just do something easy, maybe some tuna and mayo...

Becky, if ever there is a good time to blow-off class, it's the first night. Seriously. They rarely do anything other than go over the syllabus, tell you what texts you need, and spend a lot of time yapping about the overview of the course. To the extent that there is any substantive instruction, it will more than likely be repeated for all the late registrants who add the class after the first week. Trust me, I'm a professional student (working on my 4th degree). I'll probably be a student until I die. And yes, I know how sad that is.... So, rest up, feel better, and don't worry too much about making it to class tonight if you're not feeling up to it. Hugs, Tracy

I know, but I need to see the syllabus - I'm taking 3 this semester, in addition to working full time. PLUS, my PS is the day before the final in December, I need to see if I'm going to have an opportunity to take it early, what the consequences are, etc... If I have to drop it, it's gotta be this week. I'm hoping by this evening, I'll feel halfway decent, I already feel better than I did yesterday. Plus, I figured if I had to, I'd just go, get the syllabus, talk to the instructor and get the heck out... Being a professional student isn't sad at all, I wish I had your ambition. Sad is being 32 with a professional career and STILL trying to finish up your BA...lol
