Calorie Countdown - Good Friday through Easter Sunday, what did you eat?

Well, its almost 2am and I'm up waiting for my computer to finish running a program.  Soooo, how about I open this thread at 2am instead of 2pm like I usually do?  I hope everyone has a great Easter weekend.  I am not religious, so its not really a holiday for me, but I will be making an Easter dinner anyway.  However you celebrate it or don't celebrate it, Happy Easter!

2 a.m.?  Man, I'm not worth a dang at that time of day/night!  Hope your program finished running without any problems and that you had a good sleep...   I'm working my way back to my regular food routine today.  My slightly modified version of the pouch test accomplished my goals -- detox from processed carbs, lose some water weight -- but all that protein has me constipated!  Just can't take it any more, so am adding back more carbs (mostly oatmeal, fruits, veggies, high-fiber cereal), cutting back on protein and bumping up my fiber.  So here's what's on my plate today: Breakfast:  1 cup 1% milk, 1 packet Quaker Weight Control oatmeal Snack #1:  1 cup low-fat cottage cheese, 4 tbsp. sugar-free preserves, 3/4 c. sliced strawberries Snack #2:  medium banana [workout #1:  lower body strength training, core work] Lunch:  3 cups leafy romaine, 1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts, 6 oz. grilled chicken strips, low-fat raspberry vinaigrette salad dressing Snack #3:  venti non-fat latte Snack #4:  medium apple [workout #2:  50-60 minutes of cardio] Snack #5:  80 calorie chewy granola bar (after workout) Dinner:  5-6 oz. salmon, 1 cup steamed broccoli Snack #6:  1 cup 1% milk, 1/3 c. Kellogg's AllBran Buds Total calories:  1815 Carbs:  237.6 Fats:  45.9 Fiber:  34.2 Protein:  144.5 Today's weight:  186.6

EDIT: ummm you can smack me if I call you by the wrong name lol can I borrow your will power for the week after Easter? lol   Your amazing!

One dose of willpower, coming up!  Part of why my willpower has been so good this week is that I ate anything and everything I wanted while I was on vacation last week.  I enjoyed being "bad" for a week, but realize that I must be good most of the time in order to be bad some of the time.  Make sense?   In the old days, I would have berated myself for eating so much crap, then felt miserable and comforted myself with -- wait for it --  wait for it --  wait for it -- more crap.  Vicious cycle would have ensued and I would have gained another 5, 10, 15 pounds and kept it on.  These days, I let myself cut loose once in a while, but then come right back to center without beating myself up.  Works out much better for me than the old system!!!   Kellie 

You really do need a better schedule lol   I would rather stay up till 2 am then get up at 2 am though, since I can't seem to wake up on time no matter what time I go to bed! Today i'm doing protein shake for breakfast and lunch I may have an aditional one if I start to feel woozey they are only 110 calories each. 2 cups of coffee no doubt and for dinner I am going to ruby tuesdays and will order the salad bar because I am a salad bar junky and will try like hell to eat all the low carb stuff......wish me luck lol  SS

It's an Eggface day for me! Happy Friday everyone - is that something you should say on Good Friday? Oh well, hope everyone has a great Easter!

Pre B - SF NF Cinnamon Doulce Latte

B - 2 Eggface 's Bites, banana 

S - cottage cheese and Splenda peaches

L - Eggface's Italian Bean Salad

S - ?

D - Eggface's Chili Relleno Casserole with Chicken - dang is this ever good! Salad

S - sliced mangos http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/  for her yummy recipes!

Yeah I was wondering what you say on Good Friday too :)

Going with mostly liquids today - B - mootopia, benefiber, coffee, ice, sf vanilla L - thai veggie soup S - mootopia, nsa carnation instant breakfast D - probably cheese enchiladas - 2 corn tortillas, 1/2c cheese, 3/4 red chile paste turned into enchilada sauce, 1/4c roasted green chiles

Friday changed somewhat - I kind of had to make myself eat all day, and I only managed to eat a bite or two of enchiladas - then I made 2 pieces of bacon instead.  Late Sat night I finally felt hungry and had a lean cuisine (chicken parmesan). 

Today is also Purim, a festive Jewish holiday.  I'm not religious, either.  Being from a mixed Jewish-Presbyterian home and raised in both faiths, I am pretty much a High Holy Days Jew and an Advent Presbyterian.  Let's see, today's menu was: B: 2 EAS protein drink guzzled in the car on the way to aquacise.  E: 1 hour of aquacise, then 40 minutes of in-line skating machine, burned 300 calories on machine.  L:  8 oz chicken drumstick meat.  S: 1 venti decaf.  D: 1 serving chili mac.  Too lazy to calculate the totals, but I felt good today about my food choices.  Kix
