Friday: What are you eating??

Come on people, let's be accountable.... Here's the plan: B - protein shake, small apple (a friend gave me a "Micellar Milk" protein shake to try. It's 11 ounces, 40 grams of protein, 2 grams of fat, 220 calories). I hope I like it. L - cup of black bean soup, raw carrots, an apple S - protein bar and either some raw carrots or a piece of fruit D - My mother may be frying fish and if she is I just want you to know up front that I'm having some! Everyone needs a bit of fried fish in their life periodically. S - 100 calorie pack popcorn Meds and vits - done liquids - 20 down, 80 to go exercise - Gilad's fat burning cardio workout followed by "Buns of Steel" lower body toning

B - oatmeal S - hot chocolate w/ protein S - SB diet breakfast bar L - ??? I'm in the "I'm not hungry, and nothing sounds good stage" today S - hot chocolate w/ protein D - My daughter's birthday dinner is tonight. At first she picked spegehetti o's but then she changed it to steak and potatoes and corn. And I bought her a birthday cake as I knew I wouldn't have time to bake one for her

Tis so nice to have you back, Tracy! Pre-B: Protein shake (scoop and a half) made w/ chilled coffee, half and half and sweet 'n low B: 1 hard boiled egg, 1/2 can tuna salad L: Greek stuffed meatloaf and homemade tzaziki S: Protein shake (scoop and a half) - either Nectar has changed their Lemon Tea forumlation or I got a mislabelled jug cuz this doesn't taste right - I've had half and I'm going to pour the rest out... bleeck! S: 1 slice provolone D: Greek stuffed meatloaf and homemade tzaziki, baked sweet potato w/ butter and cinnamon S: Protein shake (scoop and a half) Vitamins: Just need 2 doses of calcium tonight and I'm done Water: 60 oz water in thus far - more to come Exercise: We'll see

Meds and vits done Liquids - I dunno - lots, I had a large glass (24 oz) of decaf tea, and 2-3 large glasses (24 oz) of water

Okay Miss Tracy, yesterday was a major improvement. Im taking things a day at a time. We did end up going out to a buffett last night but I did not have anything sweet the entire day. Nervous today b/c this eve is the family reunion...
