sticking to the basics - TGIF!

Good Morning All - I've hit another "right before I grocery shop" food block...

B: 1/2 bagel with cream cheese
S: cheddar cheese
L: leftover pork chop and salad
S: tapioca pudding
D: not sure, Chris is going out with the boys tonight so I might treat myself to some nice takeout!
S: chocolate peanut butter ball

morning Liz... so far so good, 2 days of liquids down and I think the loss of water weight showed on the scale, but I'm not going to get too happy too soon.

B: scrambled egg w/cheese
S: chocolate pudding
L: tuna
S: not sure--have to see what is around
D: whatever my step mom is serving
S: ricotta w/ SF choc pudding at the party

water, decaf coffee, crystal light, etc.

I am going to be diligent about not drinking 30 mins before or after meals

doing good.. couldn't even finish 1 whole egg with cheese this morning.. that was weird

afternoon snack I am eating now.. pinto beans with cheese

ok.. accountability time..

dinner at step mom's actually turned out well.. she served fish, salad, green beans and carrots.  I had a little bit of each.. all well and good.. though I probably would have been content with just the fish, the rest wasn't that bad.

problem was when I got to the Pampered Chef thingy... I didn't do as bad as I could have, but should not have had what I did because I really wasn't hungry.

had 2 meatballs, about 2 TBS of the black bean dip with a couple of tortilla chips (SLAP MY HAND), a small spoonful each of a lobster dip and a crab dip that were there.  It wasn't much on the plate, but like I said.. not really hungry, didn't need it, ate it anyway. 

I will get back on track right away!

I won't slap your hand, but I'll give you a hug and say it sounds like you are making wonderful progress with getting back on track.  You recognized what you shouldn't have had, and you made yourself accountable for it!  I know that with the nature of my own food addiction that those are hard things to do, after a lifetime of sneaking food and telling myself "oh it was only a little," or worse, just eating a few tiny morsels at whatever event I was at (because people could see me there) and then stopping off on the way home to buy some junk to devour when I was all alone.  It's such an isolating and crappy feeling!

Anyway, didn't mean to ramble on like that. Best wishes for much more continued successing!
