9/12 WEDS What did you eat today?

Okay, yesterday was a banner day with 10 replies! Let's get 15 today! We can do this gang! Keep posting please! Lea

So far I've had: B: Coffee w/half & half, equal and protein powder 25 P 200 C L: South Beach meal Bar 19 P 210 C D: Red, Hot and Blue Salmon Salad 24 P 128 We are going out to celebrate my neice and nephews' birthdays tonight. I've looked over the menu and have decided what to eat. The problem is there is no nutritional info on the web sight. I know the protein and cal or 4 oz of salmon and will have to add additional calories depending on salad dressing and other ingredients. Didn't do my walk this morning, will try later tonight and repost. Have a great evening everyone!!!! Robin

B: Matrix Orange Cream shake s: Atkins breakfast bar s: 4oz cottage cheese w/.5 c pineapple L: 1 c Homemade chicken rice soup s: protein wafer d: Turkey burger w/ squash/tomato/onion and mushroom sauteed with sprinkle of cheese on top.( Kind of like Chop Suey but no noodle) I have to work a double today 8am until Midnight so I packed only good food with very little carbs. I was hoping this would help me detox as my eating seems out of control. I am dying for something bad. I have no money but am thinking about rounding up some change from my car to get to the vending machine. This is a dreadful disease!!! I have only high protein bars but they are all calories so when will I stop?? I am eating too much and can't seem to get a handle on it. The food choices are not always bad it is just the quantity and a few bad choices mixed in a couple times a week. Thanks for the thread - I guess i should be writing everyday. jennifer
