*Accountability Saturday*

Happy Weekend to Everyone! I just wanted to log on to be accountable as I have planned my meals out! Hope everyone has a terrific weekend, the weather is cooler here than usual. Food: Breakfast: 2 protein pumpkin muffin pies with SF "frosting" and whip. Yum, I have missed these! Snack: 1 oz vanilla bean almonds Lunch: Protein Shake, arctic frap with 1 cup unsweetened vanilla soy milk and FF whip. Then 30" later wanted a salad.. had 1 cup romaine, 1/2 avocado, red pepper, cucumber, cauliflower with 2 tbs of light balsamic vinegerette dressing. Snack (on the way to work): EAS Shake Dinner: 3 oz grilled chicken and another salad like the above mentioned without the avadaco. Snack: EAS Shake at work. Cals: 1295, Fats 65 (high b/c of avocado/nuts, but at least they are good fats - 24 was monosaturated), Carbs 63, fiber 20, protein 128 Gotta work on keeping it around 1200 next week.. I got higher as the week went on to upwards of 1400 something.. not that its bad but don't wanna end up letting too many cals slip in. Exercise: I have been running around doing chores and will be running my fanny off at work for 12 hours doing nursing. Water: Gotta work on this all night tonight. Only 8 oz so far vitamins: 1/2 taken, take the other 1/2 at work tonight. How did you do?

Hi, Everyone! I am glad that today is over! Typical Negative DS behavior was in high gear from early AM. Someday he'll grow-up! Sober-up breakfast with DS... fattening lunch with DH, fattening dinner with DS and DH, and too many snacks rounded-out my day. This is a rarity for me so I am just moving-on. Honestly, surprised at just how many unhealthy choices I made today. Beck's "today's eats are already ruined" must have been what I decided to do, which is diet destruction in play. As Sunday starts my "week" so I'll start again with a clean slate approach in the AM. Ro DAY 6 ... 1) Log ALL your intake daily: Done 2) Water (min. 64 oz): 64 oz 3) Exercise (min. 30 minutes): No Moves 4) Vitamins / Meds: Done 5) Weigh-in Wednesday: 131 (2.5 LB gain) HW: 332 SW: 274 LW: 128.5 Wed Weigh-in: 131 CW: 135??? 3AM B: NF yogurt 5AM B: 1 slice bacon, 1 egg (benedict), 3 oz homefries 10AM B: 1 egg (benedict), 1 oz homefries, 1 T Skippy L: 1/2 Fuddrucker's beef nachos, 1 1/2 guacamole, 1 oz sour cream, 2 oz salsa D: 1 slice pizza, 2 buffalo wings S: 2 NF yogurts, 4 granola bars calories: 2176 carbs: 242 fats: 96 sat fats: 26 protein: 91

Hugs, we all have days we just aren't the most proud of but honestly your cals come in at 2200ish.. not so bad considering. I know its not what you like, but like you said, you just move on. Just don't make it a pattern.. you will be fine. I am sorry your day was stressful.. hugs to you my friend!

Hey, Mel... Thanks for the support! Just a messed-up day... out of control. Today is already on track for me. Now don't scream... I still don't have "Hunger" ... yet. So the odd thing is breaking all of the rules and eating soooo many calories... to regain the 6.5 LB "April drop". I weighed 134LB this morning. 1LB more to go! The foods that I miss the most are my veggies & fruits! Need to go shopping!!! Hugs... Ro

Hi Ro! You are doing fantastic.. yes I need veggies and some fruit in my diet.. i am finding a well-balanced diet is what works best for me.. well my version of well balanced. I still eat lower carb (but have my whole life and its what my body is used to). Today I got into Aaron's mountain train mix (cashews, peanuts, raisins and m&m's) ended up eating 2 cups worth.. what was a THINKING! 1200 calories right there.. sheesh. Tomorrow is a NEW day.. I won't let it get me down. Hugs!
