What did you eat and how did you move...Tuesday Edition!

How is your week going so far, December Team? Hope it is good so far! What did you have to eat today and how did you exercise? For me, I'm trying liquids with two very notable exceptions (more later) and not much moves other than 5 hrs. at work. Still trying to baby the knee. 1) Nectar Latte capuccino and sf hot cocoa --Fuze Blueberry Raspberry --Special K2O pink lemonade 2) EAS strawberry creme 3) a 140 cal. 'twinkie' knockoff 4) a 100 cal. 'little debbie oatmeal cookie' knockoff 5) plan to have an icy protein shake for dinner calories will come in around 800, carbs very low and protein around 90. (Don't have the treat knockoffs entered into Sparkpeople yet so I have to guess on them.) This is not really a start of the 5DPT but after yesterday, I just felt like I wanted to try a day of liquids. Now to explain the 'treats'... Got them at the military commissary today and because the numbers were so extraordinary on them I did buy three boxes (two cookies, one twinkie) with plans to freeze them in order to dole them out carefully. Didn't expect them to taste very good but they are really yummy and I'm so excited to have some treats to look forward to now! I will pm anybody who wants the product info on them but this really does run into the realm of Food P*rn so I don't want to derail anyone unnecessarily. I really hope this day of liquids will shake up my system a little and get me back on track better. I have got to get my weight down even if it is just a teensy bit...hanging around my panic number is to scary!!!!

Hey Molly, I can proudly say that my eatings were a little more controlled today until I had my late snack today. Instead of having one flax seed cookie with my latte I had 3---shame on me---oh well, tomorrow is another day and another chance to start fresh!!!!!!

Well at least the flax seed cookie was something good for you and three isn't that horrible. Hugs! You are probably doing a lot better today, right?

Hi, Molly... Thanks for the Pouch Rule info! I need to walk and add other moves! "Rules" will help get me get motivated... Time for my review! Here's my Eats: B: NF yogurt, 2 oz blueberries, 2 oz cantaloupe, 1 Atkin's bar L: 1 turkey meatball, 1 oz sauce, 1 oz 2% cheddar, 8 jalapeno-cheddar pretzel snacks D: 1 turkey meatball, 1 oz sauce, 2 oz zucchini, 1 oz tomatoes, onions, 1 oz wheat pasta, SF vanilla pudding, 1/3 serving graham crackers S: 1 oz string cheese, 1 oz salad w/ Wishbone spray, 1/2 artichoke calories: 1,061 carbs: 122 fats: 41 protein: 60

I am SOOOO jealous.....Graham crackers...I ate a few on Monday and experienced one of the worst dummping episodes that i have had ----so needless to say no more for me.......

You are welcome! Things like that are good for us all to review now and then, it seems. Your day sounds so yummy and healthy! I have some turkey meatballs in the freezer and should get them out for my dinner tonight. Mmm...glad you posted that! Thank you! {{{{{}}}}}

B: Egg and Cheese L: chop steak S: CC yogurt D: red snapper filet with broccoli i was keeping track of the numbers but the chop steak (aka hamburger patty) threw me off- i got it in the cafeteria cuz i wanted something HOT for a change. i think that i did ok though......Instead of going to jazzercise last night i stole away to buy Valentine's cards for my neices and my HUBBY......but i think that is ok too.....i feel really good....I have not stepped on the scale in a while but there for a bit i was OBSESSED with the number......you know i am still in the high 100's but am trying to keep in mind that it is WAY better than where i was last year---and i am going to continue..... Hope you all are having a great day-

You had a great day too, Dawn! Seems like the stars were in alignment for us all yesterday. My day started off great today and got a little out of line but I have it under control again and hope to finish out the week with very good eats! Tomorrow may be a challenge for us all.....
