Monday Accountability

I'M BACK!! I was typing a reply to Wendy's post Friday night when we lost power due to Ernesto. What a nasty storm! We were without power & running water...we have an electric stove....so no cooking. We found a campground nearby that still had power, so we packed up the 5 kids, the camper and the tent and went camping for the electricity and running water. Thank God everything is back to normal today. We had sooooooo much cleaning up to do...trees down everywhere. Today, I had to pack up all the camping stuff and bring it all home. Get the house back in order...catch up on laundry....and get my hair dyed....so I was bad with the eating. Venti triple decaf sugar free vanilla latte chocolate hazelnut biscotti Banana Venti triple decaf sugar free vanilla latte chocolate hazelnut biscotti 4 bites of hubby's black angus sub (quiznos) The insides of a veggie melt sub (small) a pack of special k bites (strawberry) 90 calories a handful of Capt Crunch peanut butter Yesterday.... I had a banana A venti triple decaf sugar free vanilla latte a chocolate hazelnut biscotti a beef patty w/ grilled mushrooms & onion (from 5 guys) 6 fries dipped in vinegar a cup of "O's" cereal bad.... I need to get back into a routine or I'm worthless. Hope everyone else is doing better! Hugs, Pam

Hi Pam~ Glad to see you back. Sounds like you weathered the storm okay, although not without a whole bunch of hastle. I'm happy that you and your family weren't hurt, though. For today~ Venti sf decaf vanilla latte double scoop protein drink 1 oz string cheese, 3-4 bites chicken salad sm handful of nuts 2 chocolate chip cookies at different times piece of egg casserole Vits in, B-12 in, calcium- 1 more H2O, not so good~ Need to get more in. Today was really busy, but not nearly as busy as yours was!! Hugs, Kerri

Hi Ginger! Sorry to hear about your experience with the storm. I haven't been good at all for over a week. Eating the wrong things and in the wrong amounts. I am taking a serious turn with eating for the next 4 days. I know it's not the best, but at least I will get my 60 grams of protein in. Here it goes: B - AchievOne Protein drink - 20 g pro L - Stallone High Protein pudding - 20 g pro D - AchievOne Protein drink 20 g pro Of course, my vitamins and lots of water. I have to shrink my pouchie again.. I've been way off the charts and too ashamed to admit to what I ate... Hugs, Lucy

Welcome back Pam, aren't these storms wonderful (LOL)... I really hate weekends, they are my worst for accountability...Going on a cruise next month and am praying that I will not totally loose control with no stopper mechanisms in place to nibble all day and night...Promised myself last night - I'm getting back on the right track today, not eating because I'm hungry, mostly because it sounds or looks good... Monday: B - coffee frappachino protein drink, cinnamin roll S - protein ball, 2 prunes L - 1.5 oz italien shredded beef, 3 bites potato salad, 10 corn chips and 1/4 c blackbean/corn salsa S - protein ball, 10 potato chips D - 2x2 piece eggplant parmasan S - 1/2 c dark chocolate moose munch Sunday : cannot remember all the specifics of what I ate, was a bad graze day, sf cookie here and there, sf chocolate here and there, m & m here and there, and I'm sure something else I forgot because I was really grazing all day... B - slice cantalope, slice bacon, sm croissant w/pumpkin butter S - protein ball L - 2 slices seminola cheese bread with artichoke lemon pesto spread S - protein ball D - apricot glazed pork roast, 4 bites of rice and gravy, 1/4 salad w/lite herb dressing S - fruit protein smoothie Both days all the usual liquids and vitamins...At least with these I can say I'm keeping on track...

I just cant post what I ate til I get this semi bulemia thing off my back! I can't count things if they don't stay down! But I did better yesterday with everything except dinner. And I got much more water in. I am glad things are better at home now for you! Wendy

Wendy, Sorry to hear that you are still struggling with the throwing up thing. I thought that was getting better. I hope you are back to 100% soon. It stinks to feel sick. I have dumped more times this month then I have since my surgery (5times) but for me it is not a virus it is pushing my limits on my eating. You would think that I would get smart. Well maybe now I will, here's hoping. Well in light of that comment I have to go and take the cookies out of the oven. LOL They are for the daycare kids. (I think) Anyway hope your feeling better soon Lynn
