Monday: What are you eating?

The weekend wasn't the greatest diet-wise. Somehow, a sugar free pumpkin pie made its way into the house. Not good.... Anyway, it's a new week and the perfect time to get back in the saddle. AM - cup of coffee, 2 cups of hot tea B - Atkins protein shake and an apple L - grilled chicken over a tossed salad, strawberries S - probably a bowl of cereal D - Gotta finish off the last of the grilled chicken, so I'll probably have it in a wrap with some baby carrots on the side. S/f popsickle. NO FOOD AFTER DINNER!!!! Meds and vits - all done except p.m. calcium Liquids - about 40 ounces down so far, but it's all been caffeinated beverages Exercise - 45 minutes of high-impact cardio (the knees feel pretty good today so I think they can handle the jumping) followed by lower body toning.

Don't ya just hate when that stuff sneaks into the house!! heehee I went to a Mary Kay training on Sunday and they had REAL SUGAR, brownies, cookies, oh it was horrible!!!! I did pretty good. I ate my protein first, then I cut a brownie in half giving me three small bites of it - YUM YUM, it was good. Much better then the sf stuff that gives me gas!! Anyway - today is a new day and my house is junk food FREE (thank God) B - oatmeal S - hot chocolate w/ protein powder S2 - SB diet breakfast bar L - cheese qusidilla (and I found a tortia shell with only 5 carbs) S - whole wheat crackers and cheese (started making my own instead of buying the ready made one that are full of junk) D - ?? haven't set anything out yet, probably tuna for me and tuna caserole for everyone else S - ?? it's hard to plan out when I dont desire anything. Water: yup, should get in at least 80 today Vits: yup, getting back on a REGULAR regimine here (God knows I HATE taking pills) Exercise: well, no one's perfect I'll be at my desk doing school work all day, no exercise in todays schedule at all.

Am-water and 1st dose of vits pre breakfast-worldwide banana creme rtd breakfast-2 turkey sausage patties and 1 egg

snack: coffee lunch-taco salad from QDOBOS dinner-maybe fish, about 40 oz of liquid down- 20 oz CL, and 16 oz coffee gonna do another 20 oz of water

Aliya, babe!!!!!! You are lookin' MIGHTY FINE!!!!!! Michelle

I am up AGAIN and I blame it on the WW tortillas Ive been eating. I know Kathy had a bout with the Power Crunch Bars and Laurie had problems with the Bagels so I am in the same boat with the tortillas. Going to lay off of them and see if it makes a difference. I was using the double fiber bread for sand's for lunch but really got sick of it so I bought the tortillas and made wraps out of them since they have 21g of fiber. Anyways this is the plan for today: B=9am-3/4c Uncle Sam cereal with 1/4c skim milk L=12pm-can of tuna with 1tbsp mayo and NSA pickle relish, 100cal pk SB crackers S=3pm-string cheese and a small apple D=6pm-one salmon pattie with steamed broccoli and a small sweet potatoe S=9pm-dont know yet but it wont be junk thats for sure!
